Over 45, 000 Fans Gather at Citi Field to Celebrate With The New York State Bakers Annual Met Outing.

The officers of the NY State Association took to the field to start the game between the New York Mets and their rivals the Los Angeles Dodgers. Both teams were in first place in their divisions and wanted to increase their lead.

The fans went wild as the Mets drew first blood and scored in the bottom of the first inning.
The Dodgers answered by scoring three runs.

 Not to be outdone the Mets rallied with a
And we were tied at 3.
The contest remained close, but the Amazings lost the game in the end by a single run.

In spite of a loss, smiles were all around.
While a win would have been great, we all enjoyed gathering back together and enjoying seeing old friends.

We are looking forward to being in the playoffs and seeing everyone again next year.

IAbout the Show

BE A PART OF THE ARTISAN BAKERY MOVEMENT
Artisan Bakery Expo East (Previously Atlantic Bakery Expo) , October 16 – 17, 2022, is the only event in the Eastern United States focusing on the specific needs of the retail-artisan bakery community. Every year, ABEE will provide the opportunity to network with thousands of your peers. You’ll learn the latest baking techniques and business practices as presented by some of the most successful bakers in the region. Hundreds of the best artisan bakery suppliers in the country will be on-hand so you can taste and experience the latest cost-savings and profit-generating ingredients, supplies, services and equipment available in the market today.

Artisan bakers will have the added benefit of attending Pizza & Pasta Northeast, a similar event developed for the region’s pizzerias and Italian restaurants. Those bakeries curious or actively looking to expand their business will find everything necessary to research the feasibility of entering the pizzeria business. Focused seminars, demonstrations and competitions, along with hundreds more exhibitors will all be available on the same show floor providing the unique chance to visit two closely related trade shows for the price of one.

Come to Artisan Bakery Expo East for two days to share your passion for the business. This event is designed for you, the artisan baker, offering fresh, un-packaged products sold through specialty retail bakeries, in-store bakeries, bakery cafés and other foodservice operations.

A Doctor was addressing a large audience:

“The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long- term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water. But there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have, or will, eat it. Can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?”

After several seconds of quiet, a 75-year-old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said, “Wedding Cake?”
