Two years in, Floyd and Blackies Bakery going strong
Two years ago, Kathy Ramsey was simply hoping her new business venture, Floyd and Blackies Bakery in downtown McAdenville, would succeed.
A little less than a year ago, she was fearful of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic might have on her fledgling bakery and its customer base.
Yet as the spring of 2021 draws near, Ramsey is faced with the enviable task as a business owner of deciding just how much growth is too much growth.
The bakery has more than doubled its initial space, with the original 800-square-foot area now serving as the kitchen.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) – Dr. Amanda Adams, a pharmacist at the Rhode Island Hospital, is seven months pregnant and vaccinated.
“I got my first vaccine on December 22nd and on January 10th I received my second vaccine,” Dr. Adams said. “My arm was sore, but it felt just like I had gotten a flu shot. I will say after the second vaccine I was very tired, but I’m 31 weeks pregnant and very tired anyway.”
While she’s relieved she didn’t have any major side effects, making that decision was not an easy one.
Pregnant women typically are not included in clinical trials and were not included in the Pfizer and Moderna trials. With little research on how the COVID-19 vaccine impacts pregnant women and their babies, soon-to-be moms face the tough decision of what to do.
