Crumbs!

First direct impact that the recession has had on us - our friendly, local, family-run bakery is closing shop this Saturday! There is a Greggs over the road from them, but their bread isn't a patch on that from the Shoebox (and the bread in Waitrose always leaves me feeling rather under-whelmed).

On the plus side, they're keeping the catering and celebration cakes side going, but not from the Portswood shop.

The best bit was being woken up by Alex at 6am, getting to the bakery as it opened at 7am and buying loaves still hot from the oven for breakfast.
