👩‍🍳I love breakfast. When I have a long kitchen day on my feet I make sure I'm eating something filling but not too rich. Eggs and toast is "it" for me and there's endless variations. I like to add a fried hash brown, some Pepper Sauce and whatever herbs I picked up from the market plus obviously lots of coffee.
.
🍞I've been making my own bread on my day off and it's become a nice ritual/routine to bake bread for myself for the coming week.
.
Maybe it's egg burritos next week 🤔 Our Tomatillo Salsa is awesome on eggs too 👌
.
You can find our Pepper Sauce exclusively at our shop 527 Gladstone Ave. in Ottawa or on our website for local delivery. New hours will be posted tomorrow.

👨‍🌾👩‍🌾Farm fresh! I think I speak for the whole kitchen crew when I say we have a special place in our hearts for Mark and Jo-anne Just's strawberries.
.
🍓Super aromatic, sweet and juicy berries.
.
You can find them set up at markets around town, and I highly encourage you pick up some of their strawberries. Check out @justfarmsveg at @ottawafarmmkt locations (we got ours at the Thursday Orleans market)

🫙*cracks knuckles* ok let's go! 3264 jars just arrived and we intend to fill them with chutney, jelly, jam and marmalade.
.
🫱🏻‍🫲🏼Since I moved in to this kitchen with @michaelsdolce in 2016 we have been splitting pallets of jam jars. Talk about saving space! We each save some money sharing shipping expenses too.

Lots of possibilities!
.
These are jar caps and damn has the price of supplies gone up lately. I know we are all feeling it.
.
I'm feeling the pressure but I'm also feeling extra proud of the work we are doing. I have a very high standard and I'm always impressed when we keep improving and building off our successes from previous seasons. While the challenges continue to mount I also feel like we are really dialed in and killing it!
.
I just wanted to hop on here and say thanks for supporting this little business.
.
There's lots of ways to support small businesses without spending money. You could leave us a Google review or review your favourite products on our website topshelfpreserves.ca (link in bio)
.
I've noticed that while our average sales are a little lower than usual our positive customer feedback feels like it's increased tenfold. Customers have been extra generous with their praise. There's something really special about doing in person markets and events and getting out there meeting other businesses too. Sometimes clients even text or email me to say how much they enjoyed something. It means a lot 🥰
.
I'll be switching up our shop hours next week for summer so stay tuned for updates!
.
Thanks all 💓

⛰️That's a wrap on rhubarb mountain! It's all cut and weighed out for jam and chutney purposes.
.
We are so fortunate to get beautiful local produce in season. We have been saying this year that "everything is a mountain" so I'm happy that we crushed this first big "climb" 🧗‍♀️
.
We have made a great start on seasonal preserving and I'm really proud of the work we are doing 😄
.
See you at the shop and weekly #ParkdaleNightMarket!
