King Arthur Madness . . .

Sanding Sugars
 This past Saturday I took a day trip to King Arthur Flour in Norwich, VT with Susan at From Beyond My Kitchen Window, and her sister Ann.  They picked me up around 8:30 a.m. and we were on the highway by 8:45 a.m.  In under two hours we "had arrived" at our destination.

Center of the Round Store
Walking into the store I couldn't help but notice that it was round, and I immediately thought of King Arthur and the Knights at the Round Table.  I was expecting to see characters such as Lancelot and Guinevere asking if we needed any assistance!  Nope, just ladies with green aprons!  Who by the way were wonderful and super friendly.  But then, why wouldn't you be friendly in bakers heaven! 

Scone Display
There were display like this set up through the entire store.  This one happened to focus on their scone mix, which by the was was on special, and happens to be delicious!  

Cookie Cutters Anyone?
There were cookie cutters galore!  This display had so many different cutters!  If you were looking for one, you'd find it!

Hot Beverage niceties!
Who knew there were so many toys for hot beverages.


Best Rolling Pin in the World!
This rolling pin was designed by a former member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.  I own two of these rolling pins in different sizes and I love them!  

Picnic Ants Dinnerwear
There were some fun novelty items too, like this cute "ants" picnic dishes and linens.  And how about the salt and pepper shakers - so 1950's!
Sour Dough Needs.
For all you sour dough people out there, look at this little kit you can pick up.  How about the "Quick Shine" to make your home made bread glisten!

The Damages . . . 
Our loot, we did some damage and this was just the 1st of our stops!


My loot!
I can't wait to try out my new items.  I'm in love with my tea loaf baking pan.  It reminds me of the tin one my Nana used to have!
