Ending of 2009 season

We're bad ... bad bloggers. We've been way too busy repackaging the Pantry into our own flirtatious images to write about anything. Fortunately the new personality is a good fit, and the festival clientele has responded beautifully.

It's been 5 days since the show closed for 2009, and we're already cutting holes in walls, and applying for permission for a structural change that will make the kitchen much more efficient for the fact that we're hand-building most of our items, rather that simply reselling purchased items.

The kitchen itself was/is a combination of 2 old shops, a courtyard, and the space between the shops. This makes for a terribly inefficient layout indoors. It's been one shop for more than 20 years, but the bones of the old structures are still apparent.
