Summer Reading issue

Our summer reading issue last year was a great success so here is the 2010 issue. In it, we will recommend treats from Great Harvest to accompany your favorite books.

Any Stieg Larson book (aka the Millennium series) - We recommend Onion Dill Rye to accompany your reading of these books. If you can handle it, add some very Swedish pickled herring!

Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer - While you're trying to figure out who Bella will choose (Edward...Jacob...Edward... Jacob...) do your best to ward off any local vampires by having some of our most popular savory bread, Cheddar Garlic! This bread is great for the grill, too. Just brush it with some olive oil (with even more garlic) and grill for a minute or so on each side. Great with all summer salads.

The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender - You taste no sadness in our cakes. If you don't believe us, try the Chocolate Brownie Bread or Almond Pound Cake. They will make you feel light and happy.

The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein - Obviously, you must get your best friend some dog treats to munch while you work your way through this story of Enzo's final days. And since many of our customers report that their dogs will go to great lengths to get our Challah, we think it would go very well with this book.

Percy Jackson Series by Rick Riordan - Popular with kids ages 9 and up, these books deserve to be served up with some of our Chocolate Chip cookies. Add your own milk and watch as your children enrich themselves this summer.

Stop by for more reading recommendations. We hope to see you soon. Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.
