Spreading Our Wings

December 31, 2019

Chilly morning in Chicago, a warm cup of coffee in my hand as I ruminate on 2019, I realize it was all about “spreading our wings”!  We expanded into farmers markets all around the Greater Chicago area and were thrilled to see many of our customers turn into regulars.  What a pleasure it was to hear about all the different ways our customers were enjoying our artisan products.  From making pizza sauce to dipping sauces using our dressing, eating the spread with rice cakes or eggs, adding our artisan products to zest up various dishes and appetizer trays. Thanks so much for sharing these with me and fueling my passion for this business.  We also had a few first, as we crossed state line to participate in Wisconsin markets and plunged into eCommerce towards the end of this year.  Exploring this whole online shopping experience should be so much fun next year.  We learnt a lot as we “spread our wings” and are thrilled with the support we continue to get from all our customers and market partners.   Thanks everyone for making 2019 a fabulous and enriching year!

On the personal front, my youngest son zoomed off to college and we embarked on the “empty nester” phase of our lives.  Little did I realize how challenging it would be to motivate myself to cook with spouse travelling and nobody else at home! Thanks goodness for my dressing & spread, they made it sinfully easy to whip up tasty and healthy meals. Wow, it is funny that I originally created these products to help me when life was hectic and now I need them even more as an empty nester 🙂

As 2019 winds down and we look to welcome in the new year with a full house, I am excited about 2020 and the opportunity to continue serving you our customers and be a part of making everyday meals easy to prepare, tasty and healthy.

Wishing you a Happy & Healthy 2020!!
