I think the French have a handle on living a good life. There’s usually a good boulangerie (bakery) in the neighborhood where people can pick up the day’s loaf of bread, fresh and delicious. Pane d’Amore in Sequim is nestled off Washington Street and is easy to miss but it offers the kinds of artisan breads that say “life is good” and can spoil you for anything else. Their baguette makes me dream of Paris.
One quickly learns to not get there late in the day, as I did. They may be easy to miss, but they have a loyal following and if you arrive toward the end of the day the selection may be slim.
The nice ladies who work there begin their day with the racks to the right full of beautifully made breads as well as cookies and a selection of pasteries.
There is also a small selection of goodies for a nice gourmet gift basket or a well stocked larder at home.
Pan d’Amore breads are offered in other stores around Sequim and they also have bakeries on Bainbridge Island and in Port Townsend.
Really hate to admit this, but my favorite foods are NOT fruits and vegetables. I LOVE bread and pasta. I would quickly become a loyal and daily customer of this wonderful store.
If I had to give up a food group it would be meat… love bread, fruits and veggies… we have a number of really good bakeries around here too. One of my personal favs is Macrina…
I can smell the delectable odors wafting through the internet!
I want to try everything! I can just smell the wonderful aromas of freshly baked breads.
Bread is the staple of life, I too would put it on my most favored list. Fresh baked bread smells like heaven, and brings on a real high!
