Ah, Chuck the woodchuck. Bane of my existence in the summers when my garden is growing and my parsley disappears overnight. Moves pretty fast for a chubby guy. However, today is his day and he must be reveling in the glory of being a groundhog. I’ll allow it today only – and hope for spring to come soon…

a walk down warren
Taking advantage of the sunshine and almost warm weather, it was time for a stroll. I passed by Olde Hudson thinking that they could really do more with their windows and a couple of steps later on the other side of the street I see “Olde Hudson, New Location, February”. Goodie – I will have the perfect excuse for a cheese splurge.
Saffron does not seem to be at Hudson Supermarket - the temporary sign said something like: Cafe – Taste. Hmmmm.
And Corinna’s Comestibles? The shades were up at Lick but no signs of life. I was *so* excited about croissants in Hudson…
Almost at the river, the talk is coming up again about what to do with the old fire station – café? ice cream? I definitely like those options better than the possibility of a haunted house (huh???) Food of some sort could be a great draw down to the river, which is easy enough to forget some days…
I came back inside to continue baking cakes from the late great Gourmet…
who could this be and could it be for me???
Create Your Own Wholesale/Retail Bakery
Date: 2009-12-26, 5:46PM
We’ve got the idea, the location and the business plan. Need an entrepreneur/partner. Will offer very favorable rental terms and help launch the business. Plenty of commercial space. Captive customer on site. Retail location on site also possible. Supply local restaurants and caterers with all types of breads and baked goods. If you are a baker and looking to start your own business this is the opportunity you’ve been looking for. Serious inquiries only. Must have experience.
- Location: Hudson, NY

A friend forwarded this to me earlier this week. As much as I love to bake I’m just not sure…
when you need a grilled cheese and fries…
Service at Bob’s is much friendlier than the shiny dinner further down Fairview…
If you are driving around south of Hudson, then head to the Elizaville Diner not far off Rt. 9. The “Happy Waitress” is a grilled cheese with tomato and bacon, served with fries, pickle and coleslaw. Happy indeed.
I seem to be on a cheese and carb loading diet. If french fries do not fit into your New Year’s resolutions, then you should run to eat them now.
Why would people make resolutions against french fries???
it’s mac-n-cheese season
I love any excuse
I pity anyone that gives up dairy and wheat for this reason alone. Apologies to all vegans/celiacs.
I’m not sure if I’ve perfected the ultimate macaroni & cheese recipe yet… must. keep. trying.
’tis the season
Time for last minute baking… I think I will try snowballs, raspberry thumbprints, maybe pfeffernusse, bread for dinner and coconut chocolate bread for tomorrow’s breakfast. What am I missing????
she bakes too?
Trixie is a Hudson renaissance woman of sorts… Imagine my surprise when I was loading up on coffee supplies at Strongtree and I found baked goods by Trixie! Of course I had to try. My OH suggested I do a comparison between Trixie’s Ginger Grant and my Gingery Gingersnaps that I’ve been nibbling all weekend – but I know Trixie could take me down. Let’s just say they’re de-lish with coffee.
Can you see the finger imprints across the top of the cookie? Considering the source, this could be alarming… But she covers local food sources, sorta, so we’ll take a chance.
corinna’s comestibles has popped up in Hudson
My prayers for a local bakery have almost been answered!
As Lick shut down for the season (and to focus on cheese), Corinna’s Comestibles has moved into the space for the time being and has been there for about a month. They hope to be there Thursday – Sunday, but it depends on manpower and finicky mixers. Offerings include baguettes, croissants (!), cookies and more.
These are all gone now.
Also, I have to say I love the re-purposing of space. Sharing is good.
winter walk wrap-up
Did you go? For once I wasn’t freezing my a** off and was instead only fending off those crazy snowflakes that aimed straight for my eyeballs.
I love the holiday spirit and the performances and the opportunity to visit the galleries and shops, but what really grabs my attention is….
Food consisted of mainly wine tastings and cookies at the various businesses we stopped at, chili and hotdogs for the classic winter street food options, but also pot pies and other steaming hot food were available from Red Barn, Georgia Ray’s and others. And cookies from Corinna’s! Food should always be the focus, don’t you think?
That is probably it for events in Hudson and surrounds for the next couple of months as we hunker down for winter. I hope your snow shovels are ready…
thanks
Can we just have month of giving thanks as we enter into a month of often crass commercialism? I am behind in holiday everything, except baking…
