Local Produce. Extraordinary Taste.

Lolo Gardens is becoming a reality! And I'm still single, which I think was part of the reason for starting this blog... to open a bakery and get a boyfriend, right? Well, it just goes to show some things are easier said than done. (Wonder if the fact that I am spending a Thursday night blogging in old PJs while eating cookie dough, drinking a warmish beer and watching Sex and The City reruns has anything to do with the latter. I vow I will hit the town this weekend. But tonight its me & my Mac and some calories.)

But I digress. Lolo Gardens is for real.  The logo is finalized. The business cards are at the printer. The website has a landing page. The Organic Certification Research is underway. The Macadamia Nut and Avocado partnerships have been forged. I'm working on an 'in' for Mangos, Kabochas and Lemons. I've purchased packaging for my mini media kits. I wrote a bunch of copy. I'm brainstorming my cocktail-focused herbs display and packaging. Next week I'm finalizing my market vendor application kits and baking up some winners.

Here's a sneak peak:

How do you enjoy a creamy English-style curd? Spread it on a freshly crisped english muffin, crumpet or hearty toast for a sweet and decadent twist. Drizzle it over ice cream. Fill cupcakes before frosting for a sweet and tart surprise. Or simply, with spoon and jar in hand, savoring every last drop.
