My weekend manager and resident chef, Ken Mitchell, has been sick and in the hospital. We wish him a speedy recovery.
Our customers miss you Ken –so do we. ! When Ken returns, our website with feature a new section “COOKIN’ & BAKIN’ With KEN”. People can submit questions and Ken will respond online. Ken will also have podcasts where he will discuss the latest and greatest products at Cookin’ Stuff.

Cookin’ Stuff’s interior remodel continues as we installed another aisle of new shelving the week before Easter.
The new white shelving with board panel background creates a shopper friendly atmosphere and makes the entire store brighter.
Products are displayed more prominently and far easier to access. For inventory purposes, the shelving units come with drawers at the base where we can keep products instead of always having to schlep back to the warehouse to restock.

A special thank you to my husband, Ajim, who enlisted hard working guys from his construction company to do a lot of the heavy lifting.

Like a good party, people came early and stayed late. Our March 15 Sidewalk Sale was one of our best EVER ! As usual the early birds showed up well before the 9 am start and we held them off as long we could, but eventually they stormed the parking lot and started SHOPPING !
With prices reduced by as much 50-75%, our outside inventory quickly dwindled.
Undaunted, determined shoppers headed inside as we experienced our biggest sales Saturday of the year.
We want to thank everyone for making the event so successful.
