last home delivery of the season

Cress Spring Bakery Home Delivery for April 13
Greetings,

This will be our last home delivery of the season. We will return to the outdoor market on Saturday, April 21. It's been a pleasure to bring the product of our labors to your doorsteps, and I hope to see many of you on the square. 

This will also be the last week to get truffles until November, we do not sell them at the outdoor market.
 We prefer to have truffle orders by Monday instead of Wednesday, but late orders will usually be accommodated.

The muffins available this week will be ginger spice and raspberry chocolate chip. 

If you're a fan of the potato kamut bread, you might want to stock up. We switch to rosemary kamut for a few months starting next week, usually switching sometime in August. 

I was awake this morning pondering the way we feel emotions so distinctively in physical locations - butterflies in our stomach, a pain in the neck, joy in our hearts, or a broken heart - and I was wondering if a heart ever really breaks. Generally it goes on about it's work, pumping blood to all the nooks and crannies of our existence, but is there a physical manifestation when we feel pain or joy so clearly in that vital organ? A broken heart really feels like a broken heart, but does that shattered heart truly heal itself to become stronger? Is there scar tissue? Does a heart swelling with pride or love or the beauty of this world actually get larger? In the midst of my wondering, I opened a Mary Oliver book to our poem of the week:

This World

I would like to write a poem about the world that has in it
nothing fancy.
But is seems impossible.
Whatever the subject, the morning sun
glimmers it.
The tulip feels the heat and flaps its petals open
and becomes a star. 
The ants bore into the peony bud and there is the dark
  pinprick well of sweetness.
As for the stones on the beach, forget it.
Each one could be set in gold.
So I tried with my eyes shut, but of course the birds 
  were singing. 
And the aspen trees were shaking the sweetest music
  out of their leaves.
And that was followed by, guess what, a momentous and 
  beautiful silence
as comes to all of us, in little earfuls, if we're not too 
  hurried to hear it. 
As for spiders, how the dew hangs in their webs
  even if they say nothing, or seem to say nothing.
So fancy is the world, who knows, maybe they sing.
So fancy is the world, who knows, maybe the stars sing too,
  and the ants, and the peonies, and the warm stones, 
so happy to be where they are, on the beach, instead of being 
  locked up in gold.

- Mary Oliver
