My Anxiety Could Never.

There’s much to be said on the Internet about opening a store (so fun! so easy!). Ahem. But there isn’t much to be said about closing a store, so here are my thoughts on closing a retail location. BROTHA. It’s a lot of work. It’s like moving your house except with your house, you aren’t ex...

Our move to our West location is complete and NO MATTER WHAT WE DID, we could not find room to bring this double door merchandising refrigerator with us. And that's sad, because she has housed thousands of fresh cream pies for us over the last few years and she's a well-cared for gem of a merchandising cooler!
***
In excellent shape, cleaned regularly, and normal maintenance performed. Right door does stick when the humidity is high in the space, but no other issues. The "cream pie" signage is vinyl and can be removed. Comes with original owner's manual. Unit lights up and has digital thermometer on front right bottom of unit. Manufactured by Supreme Refrigeration.

$900. Please email [email protected] if interested or have any questions!

What Now?

With just two full business days left at Nifong, you might be wondering how it is going here. And to that, I say IT IS FINE, EVERYTHING IS FINE. But as I was writing this, I was alerted that Dolly Parton has passed away and because I’m basically self-focused, I thought REALLY, WHAT ELSE? I will s

Our last day at our Nifong location is THIS THURSDAY (😢🤨🤢🫡). We are so thankful to have a beautiful storefront at the Shoppes at Stadium and the move should be smooth sailing through calm
seas. BUT, we do have some larger equipment we won’t need duplicates of at West.

This is a double door merchandising freezer and you know Jean has kept this sucker SPOTLESS. It did have a compressor replaced earlier this year. The
“Frozen Goods” is a vinyl sticker that peels off. Great for any retail environment but also for extra frozen food storage at home🏡. Where ever it goes, we just want it to be well loved. $900 or offers considered. Must be gone by Monday, August 31st. Email [email protected] for more information.

Ehhhhhhhh...

So maybe you are wondering how we are doing over here and really, the short answer is: Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Objectively we are fine, but internally I would clock myself at a solid 2/10. If astronauts can see the Great Wall of China from space, I’ll bet you darn near anything they can

This is how you make a tennis court out of whipped cream…I think!

Oh, Closing A Store.

You might have read the announcement that our Nifong location is closing at the end of this month and you probably want ALL THE DETAILS. (I would too, so I get it.). So here we go: For starters, the lease on our Nifong location ended not long ago and we’ve been renting in a month-to-month agreem

August Pie of the Month: APPLE CHEESECAKE!
***
This delicious creation won our April Epic Pie Tasting by a landslide🍎. The base is a cream cheese mixture covered with apples tossed in flour, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. We finish it with a beautiful handcrafted lattice, egg wash, and a lovely sprinkle of sugar.

On shelves in August!

Lies.

If you are keeping track here, Jeanne is still gone and our door at Nifong is still broken. But here’s a few other items of note: July’s Epic Pie Tasting is scheduled for tomorrow. I think we have a great menu planned. I definitely think we’ve progressed in this arena over time. We’ve moved ...

I Do Not Know.

So, look at me…back twice in one week. I thought you might be interested to know that Jeanne extended her twin sister vacation and remains absent from PJP. They have purchased more Diet Coke since her arrival eight days ago. Thankfully, they have not uncovered the conspiracy documentary that they
