a name, new look, new cookie!

it's been a fun week in the cookie business thanks to many supportive friends and some referrals too!
thanks for keeping me SO busy!

there's a couple of exciting things i wanted to tell you about.

first off, i have a name for my business and a really cute logo created by my friend emelie.
she's a good friend from college and very talented graphic designer.
need some invitations, business cards, or logo? let me know and i'll put you in touch with her!
she's quick and so easy to work with!

didn't this turn out great?!
i feel like it looks just like me.



so you may be wondering where the name sweet lou's came from.
casey has been calling me lou for years ... sweet lou sometimes slides in there depending on the day!
onw day a crazy client i worked with back in my hotel days emailed me a bizzillion requests and started out the email saying "hey lou" ... and it wasn't a joke!
she just forgot my name i guess??
i was so frustrated that i printed out the email to show my boss and the rest is history.
eventually casey picked up on it and the name stuck!

here's new packaging for the orders i've been working on this week.



so what's inside the box?


starting on monday i'll be shipping out and delivering my new cookie called sweet lou's original.

if you've never had a cookie with butterscotch morsels in it ... you're missing out!
these cookies are my absolute favorite, and my brother's too!
i made them all the time growing up.

they're basically the chocolate chip cookie plus butterscotch morsels and pecans.

    b. love the logo. emelie told me she was working on that and it looks great! and just like you.
    c. the new cookies remind me of the south lamar house when you'd make me those without nuts! and they were heaven.
