Cashew Butter

(post by Samantha)

Well, there are so any things that I could talk about right now. This was a really cool week because we have been thinking a lot about employees. We really want employees to have a meaningful experience working for us and I know it will be meaningful to us in return. It has been fun to talk about and ask people about their favorite work experiences have been.

Another fun creation of this week is raw cashew butter. After some time, our commercial nut grinding machine will not just be used for the occasional snack! One of Ian's favorite things to eat right now is cashew butter. He was really pumped to jar it up, shrink wrap the top (another new element to our jarring!) and label it. The jars look so beautiful. We will have them at the Market tomorrow.

I made our brownies today and I really think they are my favorite thing...as a chocolate lover. We will also be serving our Key Lime Pie. We have some serious fans out there. See you at the market tomorrow!
