  Mr. VAN DREW. Madam Speaker, I want to recognize Barry's Buns, and 
its owners Joel and Jen Singer. Barry's Buns just opened a new location 
in Wildwood Crest in South Jersey, and I was able to meet with Joel and 
Jen and attend the grand opening. The inspiration for the name 
``Barry's Buns'' comes from Joel, who's middle name is Barry. He also 
says that he was born to be a baker. Joel has always wanted to have his 
own bakery, and when he was just 14 years old, he started his own 
cheesecake business. He graduated with a degree in Pastry Arts and was 
the Assistant Pastry Chef at the Rittenhouse Hotel. Joel drew 
inspiration to open up his own business from his father, who before his 
passing had his own farmers style market. Joel developed a passion for 
customer service from watching his dad, and when a location opened up 
in Pennsylvania, he knew it was time to start his own bakery. Jen 
handles the business side of Barry's Buns and its day-to-day 
operations. Now, Joel and Jen own two locations, and I know that South 
Jersey will continue to provide overwhelming support for Barry's Buns. 
God Bless Joel and Jen and God Bless America.
