Pueblo Seed and Feed

 

Visiting my son and his wife in Cortez CO, I was interested in finding a bakery. I'd seen some nice looking clips on FB about the Pueblo Seed and Feed...family owned, etc. And Kendra (daughter-in-law) also said it was a great place.

The messy job was roasting chili peppers out front. (That's my trusty 2008 Toyota across the street!)

No pastries, by the fluffy French persuasion! I would have loved the cuts of cinnamon bread...but there were 5 people in front of me in line, and a very slow clerk. So I just went on my way. The coffee was just in carafes on the far wall.

The displays were excellent. And there were a lot of seeds also on one whole aisle to grow your own grains.

But I'm stuck on love of butter, croissants, chocolate and almonds. Nope. Not there. If they'd had a loaf of sourdough I might have purchased it, but all that was available were specialty rye or other rough grain types. Not what my mornings want. When I go home I'll have to make something simple for myself!

Still looking for a coffee shop to replace the ones I love in North Carolina! That may not happen.

But oh the beauty of the scenery! It's hard to concentrate on writing a blog...I look up and just am enthralled!

On a more personal note: my son and wife went camping...taking everything but the kitchen sink! 

I'm glad they weren't feeling like hiking in to do back country camping. They'll be back this evening. I'm headed for Durango before it gets dark, so may not see them. I've had a delightful time staying with their cat (who didn't really need care).

But I came for the birthday dinner Friday, then the art opening.

I meant to go back Saturday and purchase some cards, all hand made by artists. But I got distracted by the murals all over town in Cortez.

Tai talking to one of the artists.

This is my cart, which carries everything I need when moving around. It has 2 wheels, and you tilt it and it's like a suitcase...and of course the handle retracts so it fits in the back seat of the car.
