After 40 Years, It's Time to Be Grandma.
I started the Saturday stall in Rhinebeck in 1986. Forty years of getting up before the sun.
When word got out we were closing, customers asked if I'd write it all down. So I put together the kit I'd give my granddaughter.
The stall closes this year. Saturday mornings don't have to.
One last run. When they're gone, they're gone.

The Way My Mother Baked
Friday night, you measure and rest. Saturday at six, you bake. Same way my mother taught me in 1972 — cold butter, weighed flour, no shortcuts. The way Saturday mornings used to smell.
