It’s been about a month or so since our last post, because we’ve been working our tails off (and Nick’s been traveling like a baseball team). Since then we’ve found that we’re not selling our stuff at Hawthorne Valley Farm, and we are selling at the Philmont Public House, Chatham Farmers Market and Hudson-Chatham Winery. Hawthorne Valley? No clue, other than they decided to go it themselves and we wish them luck with that. Chatham Farmers Market? We’ve been finding that the farmers markets are the best single way to get our stuff out there, and we’re loving it.

Yesterday we spent about four hours at the Sangria Tasting Day at Hudson-Chatham Winery on Route 66 in Chatham, NY. HCW was doing its annual Sangria day, food was provided by Mexican Radio, the Hudson- and New York City-based Mexican restaurant and hot sauce shop (delicious flautas, guac and chips and other spicy and sweet sauces). And we were doing Mexican Wedding Cookies, quark-cake, lemon-glazed butterfly cookies, cheesesticks, croissants, petits-fours (almond cream, dark chocolate and fresh, local and organic fruit like Saturn peaches and blueberries). We sold out in about two hours, though we should have brought more.

Today we’re doing the Philmont Farmers Market, with much the same offerings. Two things we’ll be discussing in these pages soon: Christmas gift baskets and fine pastry school at Corinna’s Comestibles in Harlemville. Stay tuned!
