[Review] Bacon Skillet Jam

In 2007, Chef Josh Henderson created Skillet Street Food in Seattle, one of the first food experiences of what has since become a prototype for the national street food movement that has swept the country. Out of a vintage Airstream trailer, he created innovative lunch menus based on American-inspired food prepared with classic technique and seasonal ingredients. The reception from Seattle’ites was immediate and passionate. They were drawn to the chef driven food, the excitement of being a part of a new, energetic, urban experience, and to the intimate involvement through the use of social media channels that intensified the connection with the Skillet brand. Since then, the business has grown up. Josh is still creating great menus served throughout the streets of Seattle from the Airstream. But Skillet is now much more than that. It is a thriving catering enterprise, supporting weddings, private parties, and corporate events throughout the Pacific Northwest. It is a food products business, distributing its signature Bacon Jam product through retailers across the US and Canada. And, in the Spring of 2011, it will become a brick-and-mortar restaurant located in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood. The original street food business has become a brand but has not strayed from its roots. The thread is still there: great food prepared with care, technique and the best of ingredients; an innovative experience that consistently surprises and satisfies; and a feeling of being personally connected to Skillet, in all its manifestations. We see this as our mission - to continue to deliver on these themes and to continue to find new channels though which we can expand the brand and the family of loyal Skillet customers.

[Review] Lovable Labels: Address Labels

It is said that necessity is the mother of invention and this proved all too true for Laura Porreca, Owner and President of Lovable Labels. When Laura’s first child entered daycare, she was told to label all his belongings. This meant labeling everything from his outdoor clothing, to his indoor shoes, lunches, sippy cups and backpack. Laura recognized a need in the market for personalized labels that were tough and durable and could stand the test of time and the everyday use that children put them through. After researching and testing many different products and designs, Laura created a line of labels that include Regular and Slimline Stickers, Shoe Labels, Iron-ons and Bag Tags. They are not only bright, fun and colourful but also met the high standards that parents have come to expect. The Regular and Slimline labels are microwave and dishwasher safe, the Iron-on labels stay put in the washer and dryer, the Shoe Labels have an extra strength adhesive to ensure they won’t come off and the Bag Tags are made of a durable and flexible plastic. In 2003 Lovable Labels was born! Today, the company continues to grow and offer exciting opportunities for its team of sales agents. Laura also feels strongly about giving back and has incorporated fundraising into the Lovable Labels company. Schools, daycares and camps use our labels to raise funds for extra-curricular activities while providing a practical and useful product for parents and children.

When It came the first thing that came to my head was wow thats alot of address labels, and I do need alot, with all this stuff I do for people and companies. Its like a full time job. These labels are nice, they stick very well and stay put and do not budge at all! There is like a million in their. To many for me to count or to see how many there are. I also got these inspiration labels are cute! I stuck them on my sticker wall in the garage.

[Review] Snack Taxi: Food movers for a Happy Planet

I invented SnackTAXIs way back in 2003 as a way to stem the tide of plastic ziplock bags that flowed from our house to the landfill when our 3 kids started school! We pack over 500 lunches every year, and had definitely fallen prey to the easy appeal of the ziplock bag. SnackTAXIs are easy too - really! They are made in our home-based workshop by talented (and fun!) local sewers - we are committed to keeping our business local, and will never outsource our labor. We hope you’ll enjoy using snackTAXIs as much as we enjoy making them! Find them on Facebook too!

These 2 are so adorable. I will be mixing the snack ones in the other one for the giveaway one! They are pretty neat, my husband enjoyed checking them out to! They have like a plastic in the inside so those mustard or mayo sandwiches don’t mess up those pretty sacks. The owl set is so adorable! I just love that night set! These are great for on the go and for school kids. Plus they can show them off to their friends. They are very well made, they wash perfectly and look the same when they came. The company shipped them to me so fast to wow, couldn’t believe how fast they came to me. They were shipped perfectly in the envelope even for that rainy day wow. The customer service is really awesome to. The folded part on these to keep it closed and fresh, is Velcro style, so its secured well for those kids who run to the bus or school. The snack ones are really nice. I throw my 3 year olds puffs in them for him in preschool. The teacher sure had a kick out of them! So stop by, grab a pair or one and spoil your sandwich to something pretty!
