Custom Order and a Yummy Dinner!

A dear, dear friend of mine, Patricia, who works and practices at the yoga studio where I work (she is actually a massage therapist), placed an order with me me for FOUR Christmas baskets of vegan goodies.  Just imagine my excitement!  One basket is for a four-person family, the other, a two-person family, and the last two, one-person families.

I asked Patricia what she'd like in the baskets and after some back and forth communication, we settled on:

-  Turtle Pretzel Rods
-  Chocolate-Peppermint Rice Crispy Treats
-  Salted Caramel Corn
-  Chocolate-Dipped Macaroons
-  Brownie Cookies



I got one of the baskets done tonight and I have three more to create by Friday.  Almost everything is made except for an additional batch of salted caramel corn, which I will probably make Tuesday.




One more thing:  I have the best mama E-V-E-R!  Tonight she surprised me with a lovely vegan/gluten-free dinner after spending her entire day decorating our house for Christmas.  She knows I've been eying the cover of the recent Vegetarian Times and so that dish--Linguine and Clam-Free Sauce--is what she decided to make!

Both of us thought the dish was SUPERB and she agreed to make it again :)

  2. Thank you so much Sarah! I appreciate your optimism and I hope your hunch is correct ;)) Aside from those baskets though, sales are a little slow right now, which is a little weird since it's the holiday season but I'm not reading too much into it. Sometimes there's no rationalizing things like that!
