Any time at the Breadboard is the right time!

I was in the Breadboard the other day. It was important that I get there on the first day of the year at 7 am – right when they opened because I always need to get the first Eggs Benedict of the year because I’m a busy person and I have priorities. And there were […]

Momma on a plate! Let’s eat everybody! (commas not required)

As everyone knows, incorrect grammar can mean the difference between life and death. I was reminded of this the other day when I was treating myself to a delicious breakfast at the Breadboard. The kids were so excited at the table next to me and they were pounding their little paws on the table singing […]

The Euphoria of Anticipation

I was amazed the other day when I drove up to the Breadboard – there were people waiting outside and the place looked slammed. I panicked, but just as I pulled into one of the parking lots, another car pulled out and I got a space. As my friends and I sheepishly walked to the […]

Fresh Wholesome Hearty Homestyle YUMMY!

was having breakfast at the Breadboard the other day and a couple of people who were sitting next to me were talking about the upcoming election and they were debating about whether or not they even wanted to vote. One of them said they had just had four wisdom teeth pulled and when under anesthesia […]

Yummy food. Beautiful fall mornings on the deck …and the kids are in school.

A lot of people have a big party on the December 31st. I’m not so much into that kind of thing. For one reason, I like to get to bed around 9:30. Also, mid-winter I’m usually hunkered down working my way through dark, cold mornings and grey, wet weather – starting to count the days […]

I’m voting for fresh local peaches!

It’s getting into election season now. I guess. To me, it’s felt like election season is more like a couple of years long anymore. I was enjoying a latte on the deck at the Breadboard the other day and I was telling one of the servers that I was getting kind of tired of hearing […]

Simply Yummy Every Day 7 am – 2 pm

It’s amazing that only a few hours drive from the Breadboard you can easily find yourself deep in the Trinity Alps.  That’s what they are called.  Alps.  Stunning jagged peaks with huge granite cirques and deep clear lakes teeming with trout.  I was on the deck the other morning trying to decide what to order, as […]

Dining on the Deck – Historically Amazing

Every now and then something historic happens in Ashland.  Once a star from Portlandia had breakfast at the Breadboard.  Another time Johnny Depp had 5 Irish coffees in the now defunct Dragon Fly.  Then, of course, there was the time that Reese Witherspoon had a turkey burger on the deck of the Breadboard and they […]

$435 for feeding the deer? Conspiracy?

Nightmares last night. Cold sweat. Shaking. The works. When spring rolls around in Ashland, it’s hard to imagine you could worry about anything. I mean the deck at the Breadboard is open and you can eat great yummy food and the servers and bussers and cooks are cheerfully slaving away catering to your every whim […]

Breadboard Bacon – Acceptably Addictive

I was enjoying my Lemon Poppyseed pancakes at the Breadboard the other day – so yummy – and I overheard one of the strangest conversations I had ever heard.  You see, the Breadboard has this amazing, thick-cut bacon.  It’s not just bacon – it is something special and really quite addictive. For sure, I am […]
