Appreciative

October warns us that the holiday season will begin soon. But November lets us stop for a moment to be thankful for… our families, our faithful employees, our friends, and you… our customers. 

As memories of the past year arise out of our cooking aromas and caress you like a mother’s hug, we appreciate the voices we hear saying yum. Not only do we love what we do, but having you makes us even happier to keep doing what we love to do.

So may your table be bountiful of food and love… Happy Thanksgiving!

Dear October,

I’m so happy you are here! The air begins to feel crisp and the evening so pleasant. But before I feel the stress of approaching holidays, let us enjoy your bounty of colors, vegetables, and little goblins.

You will appreciate this easy seasonal recipe.

Simply Pumpkin Muffins:

• 1 box spice cake mix
• 1 can 100% pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
• 1 snack size cinnamon apple sauce (optional)

Mix everything together and put the batter into muffin tins. The mixture will be thick. Bake according to the directions on the box. You can also sprinkle brown sugar or cinnamon sugar on top if you’re feeling crazy.

Next, as I absorb your beautiful weather, let me remind you to mark your calendars for our Annual Open House Street Event on November 4, 2021, from 4pm–7pm. We will be offering a scrumptious sampling. Hope you will join us.
