Summer Holidays 2011

Hi,
We closed the bakery for a week and went north to our family cottage. We slept in, hung out on the dock, counted frogs in the creek, replaced the sewage pump, and did a few day trips... one of which was over the Haliburton Highlands (via Ottawa) to Shawville Quebec to visit at the ancestral family farm. We stayed overnight and returned back to the cottage loaded with homemade tomatoes, cukes and onions. A memorable week. Now it's back to baking bread.
Here are some pictures, hope you enjoy.
