Calling all Baked Goods!

What's your favorite type of bread?

I think I'm partial to cornbread...I think it's delicious.

Tar Heel Bread will certainly have some delicious (warm!) cornbread!

I'm also thinking some pie, fudge, cake (cheesecake!), cupcakes and cookies!

Any other thoughts on what types of baked goods you'd like to see?

Tar Heel Bread as the Ultimate Bake Sale

I want to find a way to to incorporate non-profit work with my future bakery...

A couple of my friends have started truly AMAZING organizations like MorLove or Tugbeawo and I'd love to find a way to offer super cheap bake sale options--not unlike Krispy Kreme fundraisers...helping out some great causes!

Thoughts?

Tarheel Bread Farmers' Market...

I'm so excited and I really want to get this project started! I want to find a way to partner with some Chapel Hill/Carrboro community members and bring the farmers' market to Franklin Street.

Here's what I'm thinkin'...

Once I get an actual bakery started, like a physical location, I want to invite people to sell their breads/sweets/produce at my shop on Saturdays and Sundays.

While my roommates didn't mind walking out to the Farmers' Market in Carrboro, it might be a *little* bit far for other Chapel Hill students, so I'd love to give people a chance to sell their goodies a little bit closer to campus!

Thoughts?

Tarheel Born...Tarheel Bread

So, I was walking around Atlanta missing Chapel Hill today and I decided I want to A) write a cook book and B) start a bakery.

Unfortunately, I cannot do either of these things without your help.

You see, fellow Tar Heels, I am hoping to make this cook book a specifically North Carolina cook book full of tasty NC breads and sweets...but I need some good recipes!

Like I said, this idea just came to me today, so I'm still trying to figure out details of how I will go about collecting recipes, but I just wanted to throw the idea out there in case any of you were listening! :)

After all...

I'm a Tar Heel born!
I'm a Tar Heel bred!
And when I die,
I'm a Tar Heel dead...

Go Heels!
