We wish the Delta Surge was nothing more than a New Orleans bounce move…but apparently we just can’t shake these Ventilator Blues. We’re hoping this will be The Last Time, but You Can’t Always Get What You Want. Since our last newsletter, when we thought we had COVID Under My Thumb [sic], we’ve seen Delta in the Delta become Out Of Control; That COVID, She’s So Cold. To Paint It Black even further, we’ve also witnessed devastating news in the Middle East, several catastrophic natural disasters, the third cancellation of Jazzfest, and the passing of Stones drummer Charlie Watts.

In times of despair, we seek comfort, so when Casey said “Let’s Spend the Night Together and bake some bread,” we just couldn’t resist.

We haven’t quite reached Boulangerie status, but give us a few weeks to work out our yeast-to-baking soda ratio… and figure out the difference between baking soda and baking powder. We’ve ordered a real life rolling pin to replace the bottle of Casamigos we’ve been using in the meantime. Because, after all, what could go better with this sweet, rich, Brown Sugar-packed bread than a sinful, spicy margarita? In case you can’t Get Off Of My Cloud and the Stones are on your mind, we put together a special b+b newsletter playlist just for you.
