What We Are Grateful For This Year
Guess what, friends? We’re under a week away from Thanksgiving (we know 😨), and we still have serious prep to do. Birds to brine, hand turkeys to make, and of course…sides to plan. Because, of course, we all know Turkey Day should really be called Stuffing and Mashed Potatoes Day.
But we did want to take a few minutes out of our dough-making madness to say how grateful we are to be even a little part of your worlds. Your tweets, grams, and yes, even snail mails, fill us with holiday-level joy all year round. So, thanks for the incre-dough-ble support.
We do have couple more thank yous to hand out, so…sit back, flip on your favorite holiday Hallmark movie and let’s get in this grateful train rolling.
To our firefighters, first responders and everyone else who’s fighting the wildfire flames
Both as native Californians, and well…just humans, we’ve been completely devastated by the wildfires raging in our home state.
Our hearts go out everyone affected by the 2018 California wildfires and the brave men and women who always have, and always will, run towards danger instead of away from it.
If you’d like to help with the recovery effort (and show some love for our founder Rana’s alma mater), order our Fight On! USC Gift Box! With a mix of 5 of our most favorite flavors, a portion of total sales will be donated to The California Community Foundation Wildfire Relief Fund.
Though the mighty Trojans fell over the weekend to those bad Bruins from UCLA, they’ll be back in action against Stanford soon enough. It’s a win-win anyway you look at it.
To friends, family, and good old-fashioned fun
Whether you're enjoying Thanksgiving with family, "Friendsgiving" with friends, or splurging on a solo trip to escape the craziness of it all, we created some delicious holiday flavors we hope you'll share (or keep all to yourself 😈.)
First up, Grammy’s Famous Babka. With its sticky swirls of chocolate lacing crumbly, buttery cake, this Eastern European classic somehow manages to be light, dense, and entirely delicious all at once. Now imagine that decadence mixed into a mashup of our classic and chocolate cookie dough.
We like to think of it as the “Eat, eat…you’re too thin!” Grammy we all long for…in one yummy little container.
Now, what would the holidays be without that one twist on a classic you can dive into after those drawstring pants have hit max capacity?
Four words. Topped: Pumpkin Spice Cobbler.
We may be one the tail end of the pumpkin craze and about to head straight into peppermint, but why not give fall’s biggest mascot the send-off she deserves?
As you settle in for that post-turkey tryptophan to kick in, dive spoon-first through the cinnamon crumble topping and into a fluffy pillow of wait for it…freshly whipped pumpkin spice dough. Can you even? Grab a bit of that graham cracker crust and zone out to the big night game. Dishes? Meh, there’s always tomorrow.
That does it for thank yous this time around! Please enjoy a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving, and we'll be back next week.
