O Day of Days?

Michael A. here.  Sorry I haven’t written lately but my eyes have been so small that I couldn’t see right to write. :)  Rid has been keeping you all posted on our continuing journey.  We were joking today that if we go to hell we would find ourselves on the small line (all hand work) of a co-packer doomed to never quite get the sauce done! 

This week was more of the same, on the phone…do we have all the ingredients…did Cornell approve the processes…how in the world can we not get mushrooms when we live in the mushroom capital of the world, 6 pack vs 12 pack cases…etc, etc, etc!  My eyes were so small Rid was avoiding me. FML…

But today, a good meeting with the spice folks, a GREAT meeting with the fulfillment folks.  (BTW:  Check them out at http://www.handi-crafters.org  Good people doing a wonderful job for some special people.  We are going to work with them to do all our packaging and shipping.)

Driving home after the meeting I make a call, oh something like the 4,378th call about our sauces and guess what?  This is it; it’s all there, labels, jars, Mushrooms and even approval from Cornell!  WE ARE ON…Monday, October 4, 2010 Lizbeth Lane Gourmet Cuisine goes to production.  

Stay tuned, either we take a giant leap forward Monday or maybe we just find out we’ve died and are in that special hell reserved for Rid and I…keep your fingers crossed for us.
