Hello everyone! Just a quick note to keep you updated on our progress. After the holidays we were able to get almost all the rewards out to the people in the $25 reward category . That was over 90 people, now we are working and filling the rewards for the $50 donors . I appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through all the rewards while filling outside orders and running the new shop. Please know that everyone will receive their reward gift soon if you haven't already. I will also send out an update as each donation category is completed. Thank you , Christine

Not Forgotten, just delayed.

Hello and Happy Holidays to all of my backers!

This just a quick note to let everyone know that I will be delaying the shipping of rewards until after the first of the year. With the opening of the new shop and the holidays I have found it difficult to keep up, so once BBB has finished all our holiday orders we will start in on filling all the rewards.

Thank you for your patience and I hope everyone has a GREAT holiday season,  Christine

Working On Rewards

Update #8 · Oct 26, 2012 · 5 comments

Hello Everyone!

I have just a couple of updates; I am excited to announce The Shop is officially open!! It has been a long process and our last inspection was yesterday, so we are full steam ahead.  I am happy to say some of the rewards have gone out but not as fast as I would like.   I am still working on filling the rewards and if you haven't received yours yet it will be coming soon. I want to thank everyone for your understanding and patience.  Your rewards will arrive, it just may take a bit longer than I would have liked!

We have created a new Facebook page for the shop and you can become a fan at http://www.facebook.com/TheBetterOccasionsShop , to stay up to date on events at the shop. 

And thank you all so much again!

The Better Occasion Shop

Update #7 · Oct 5, 2012 · comment

Hey all, 

I'm proud to say that we will be officially open for business very soon!  I'd like to share our new facebook page for you all to be a part of,

 https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Better-Occasions-Shop/153371101474070?ref=hl, 

and a few images from our recent opening reception where many came out to support and see our new home and taste our delicious treats. 

And now that we are all settled in we will be able to make and send out more of those tasty rewards and thank you's!  

I cannot express my gratitude enough for all of your kindness.  Thank you so much on behalf of Better Bit of Butter and Culinary Occasions for making this happen!

Sincerely,

Isn't she beautiful!!

My new baby has her place in the shop! It was love at first sight, she is a used Globe, 3 speed mixer with a 20qt bowl. It is going to be a big jump from my 5qt Kitchen Aid to 20qt but I am ready and can't wait to get started!

A survey went out last week, if you received one please make sure you fill it out and return it. If you didn't receive a survey it will be out shortly. There has been a delay with the tote bags (out of stock), so orders will not go out until the last week of August unless otherwise specified. I apologize for the delay but will get things out as soon as possible.

Stay tuned for more updated, the retail area is coming together!
