Catch Up

For all of you that have requested to see some of the pictures of the construction phase of the bakery, here you go.

This is the view into the Decorators area, freezer and frig, before.



And After the door jam was extended to get the frig in.




This is the cooling rack zone and packing area, the ovens are just right of this picture.




This is a different angle, but same area cleaned up.

This is the bakery zone with our old friend Mark working hard.

Do not have a before pic for this one.

Republic Day Cookies


Republic Day was January 26th, so we decided to make some special cookies and cupcakes for the occasion. The only way to see pictures from the big military parade is by Internet or paper. No cameras allowed. The cookies say "Chak De India" which translates Victory to India. The others are the Hindi version.

Long time over due


We have now celebrated our three month anniversary at the bakery. In this general time frame we have seen lots of changes. Marc and Katie Mcilveen who helped out with the initial set up phase of things; construction, baking, office spreadsheets, everything you can imagine that needs to be done before and after you open up a business in India, are now back in Victoria enjoying the cold Canadian Winter. Sean and Lisa Furlong with their sons, Keon and Levi, are now in town. Sean is working on the office side of things and Lisa is working in the bakery when time allows. The office manager Rakesh’s wife had a beautiful baby girl, Suzanne Alex or Stuty meaning joy in Hindi, ON OPENING DAY. She was a month early. Not her fault. Also one of our helpers, Ganesh, decided to use his day off and get married. He did not tell anyone in the shop for three weeks. Never a quite moment here at Red Moon.
