Account this week from AR:
The
Scene: The YMCA
parking lot behind the stand was taken
over this week by the fifth annual Doughman
relay, raising money for programs at the SEEDS
community garden. (If you aren’t already in the know, watch the Doughman
episode
of Man v. Food from a few years ago.) The
morning was sunny and hot, and all the local trucks were out in
full force. So
was much of Durham—at least those devoted enough to community
gardening,
athletics, gluttony, or some combination thereof—and we gained
more exposure
from the additional foot traffic.
The
Product: This week we
brought out Spinach Leek and French
Coconut Tartlets, along with our Pain
au Levain. The tartlets seem to be catching on pretty
quickly, and have
outsold the bread for several weeks running. This week also saw
the return of
our Iced Chai, just
in time for the warmer
summer weather.

The
Crew:
The smaller but dedicated crew came together to keep the stand
going while AB was away. Extra thanks to Ali R. in the kitchen, RML
at the stand,
and RG on the bike delivery route.
