We’ve been really busy today with folks coming in for bread – and free cookies!! Come one, come all, while they last! Thanks to all of our customers for making our first year the best <3
We also have tastings of all of our nut butters (!!!)
Gift basket drawings
And some awesome guitar music by our friends Miles and Megan!
I’ve been on my feet all morning and paused around 11 for a hot glazed cinnamon bun snack!
And then at 1pm had a pimento cheese sandwich on sourdough
Plus strawberries
Sweet Drake, the son of one of our awesome bakers, brought me this heartbeat bear for baby KERF! So cute all dressed up : ) Thanks guys!
And that’s the end of that chapter!

It has been a year already? Goodness time flies. You just keep baking up tons of new goodies. Wish I was close enough to snag a cookie.
Roxanne says
Send one of your free cookies to me, I’ll pay COD!
Allison @ Can't Wait For Breakfast says
Just had sardines for lunch for the first time! I always see you eating them on your blog – so I thought it was time to try them out – They were pretty good!
KathEats says
Yay!
Sana says

Happy Anniversaries! I love that t-shirt “It’s nice to be kneaded;” I loved to make bread puns when my husband was working at Breadsmith. 🙂
Keeley says
Hope people enjoyed the Wild Squirrel!! Happy Anniversary 🙂
Susan H. @ The Food Allergy Chronicles says
Congradulations on your first year! Looks like so much fun! Wish I could just ‘pop’ on over and participate but alas, there are too many kilometers between to travel! 🙁 Enjoy your day!
Lisa (bakebikeblog) says
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE BAKERY!!!!
Heather says
Amazing how time flies! Congratulations. We were just at our local GH today. Husband is 2 cookies in already! Heh.
Angela @ Happy Fit Mama says
Congrats on one year! Looks like it was a fun but very tiring day!
Jenn@slim-shoppin says
Congrats Kath on 1 year! That went by fast!~
Angel7 says
What a cute lil’ bear to add to your bear collection! Wonder what his name will be? 🙂 What about Dakota, since he is from your bakers?

KathEats says
That’s a wonderful name 🙂
lorin says
Oh yum! I’m curious, what do you think your blogging will be like once the baby comes? Takin a break from it?
KathEats says
My hope is to keep KERF going as usual – it shouldn’t be toooo hard since I have to eat. I think the meals will be more in action and less set up.
BERF will probably become mostly a baby photo blog with posts written when I have time 🙂
Bea says
Congrats on your successful year. I’m sure there will be many more to come. I wish I lived closer, I’d be there in a snap for some of those cinna buns. Drewl.
Mom says
I hope the bears will be welcoming to the new bear!
Melissa says
Congratulations on the 1st anniversary!
Mary Ann says
congratulations on both anniversaries! beautiful post!
Cait's Plate says
I can’t believe it’s been a year! It feels like it was just yesterday you guys were starting this journey! Congrats, congrats, congrats! So well deserved – I’m sure it will be another year filled of award-winning bread 🙂
Julia H. @ Going Gulia says
Loving that “It’s nice to be kneaded” shirt! Oh bread jokes. They never get old.
Lexi @ You, Me, & A World to See says
Cookies are the best ending to just about everything–a night, 1 year of business, etc. Well then again, they’re a great beginning too 😉
Ashley @ Hudson on the Potomac says
I’m always so jealous of your pimento cheese sandwiches!!! Happy GH Anniversary!
Ginger G. says
Your sandwiches always look so delicious! I’m hate that the Great Harvests here (Raleigh & Cary, NC) don’t offer anything like them 🙁
Kate says
Hi Kath-
Just realized there is a Great Harvest Bread right near me in MA!! Do you have a suggestion for your favorite or “healthiest” bread? It seems they have a very similar menu to your Great Harvest! Can’t wait to go!
Thanks,
Kate
KathEats says
Look for flax oat Bran… That’s our Cville Crunch! Or High Five, Dakota.
