Since we've opened our new retail bakeshop and foodery (4747 Nicollet  
Ave S, Minneapolis, MN), I discovered people just want the simple  
things of life.  A good chocolate chip cookie or a piece of carrot  
cake or pumpkin pie topped with whipped cream or a bowl of  
meatballs..... food that keeps us smiling.

But, then there are those that enjoy something a little special like  
our parmesan asparagus quiche or our wild blueberry pie or chocolate  
truffle pie.

Whether it is simple or special, the one thing that we've discovered  
is on the top of most gluten-free eaters list is the bread.  Good  
grief people love their bread.  We have a sandwich bread, a cinnamon  
raisin bread, burger buns, hot dog buns, and cheese rolls that don't  
even get comfortable in their bread basket before they are snapped  
up.  The bad part is there is nothing left for ME!  I love bread too.

Our frozen pizzas still tops our best seller list along with our  
signature product, tea cakes.  We've taken to giving free tea cakes  
to the delivery guys when they pick up our orders to be shipped  
across the country.   They really want to encourage you all to order  
more at our online store (www.madwomanfoods.com) so they can visit  
our plant  more frequently.

I will be at the Rock Walk on May 19th at Victoria, Minnesota, giving  
out samples and enjoying the beautiful Spring weather.

Our first attempt at gluten-free cookies n' cream ice cream was a bit  
of a comedy skit.  I bought the ice cream batch freezer used and our  
first batch end up on the floor as the gaskets leaked.  I've ordered  
more parts and we'll try again.  The good part is it actually did  
make ice cream.  I'm hoping with the new parts the ice cream will  
stay in the machine and off my floor.

Have a wonderful May!
