Such a wonderful and welcome review of this oasis on Salt Spring! I live on SSI and, too, appreciate all that Helen and Tony have added to the variety of life here.

Talia, as you’ve described, has a sophistication – but it’s not of the urban, slick, variety. Rather it’s an aesthetic – a culture that rewards with good taste and honesty.

p.s. reading this has led me back to your earlier post on Bloom Breads – and smiling at the truth in your depiction of baker Tony D. nurturing his starter “with as much loving care and attention as though it were a first born child”

manga bane!!
