Good Morning Pie Lovers! 

How was everyone's New Years? Ours rocked! We spent the glorious night, in San Francisco:) We started by going to the Kristi Yamaguchi ice rink! Then we got these totally stellar 2012 flickery glasses!! Then we had an amazing and mouth watering experience at this little Italian restaurant on the top of the Westfield mall!:) The best Spumoni Ice Cream EVER!!

Here are a few of Kemmy's New Year Resolutions: 

• Double our sales so that we can work Monday-Friday. 
• Add some apple and peach trees to our orchard.
• Support more local farmers 
• Finish designing our website.
• Create our logo so that Kemmy's can have it's own brand design.
• Eliminate catering 100%.

Has anyone tried Kemmy’s newest Kreation? The mushroom veggie pie?? I loved it!! Mushrooms, sage, fennel, onions, carrots, and potatoes. As Guy Fierri said about his creations, is that it’s like Niagara Falls in your mouth:) It was utterly delicious.

Have you heard that we’re now selling pies at the Harvest Market, in Fort Bragg? Please spread the word!

Good Afternoon Pie Lovers!!! 

So sorry that I was unable to write a Christmas blog. The quantity of last-minute pie orders on Friday were very numerous, and they didn’t have room for me, in the kitchen. Kemmy’s Crew is currently taking a couple days off from the pie business, so they can re-charge their batteries. They will be back to baking on Friday. 

How was everyone's Christmas? Were you able to try Kemmy’s newest creation...the Bourbon Sweet Potato Pie? What did you think??? Friday will be the last day to purchase one, as it was only going to be available for a limited time. So, get one while you still can!

My Christmas was great!!! Of course we went Christmas shopping the day before Christmas, but everything went Awesome and Smoothly! First thing on Christmas morning, we opened all of the presents purchased the day before :) Then, my mom made omelets with apple sausage, sautéed mushrooms & peppers and yummy cheese for breakfast. For dinner we had my mother’s mouth watering Prime Rib, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad(which I made myself), and macaroni & cheese. I am kind of sad that Christmas is over. The cheerful and happy spirits of everyone you come in contact with! The feeling of Christmas. The singing of Christmas Carols and listening to Christmas music!! But soon it will roll around again and I can't wait!:) What is your favorite thing about Christmas? I would love to know!!

Twas the Monday, before Christmas that our family and a few friends took a trip on the Skunk Train. There were like 20 people in our party. Even though Kemmy’s Kitchen is located at the Skunk Depot, many of us had never ridden the Skunk Train. The train left Willits, at exactly 6:30. We had traveled about six miles out of Willits, but little did we know that the train was about to jump off the tracks! We were drinking hot chocolate, eating cookies & popcorn, writing letters to Santa, and singing Christmas Carols with Malachai. All were having a ball, and THEN the train came to a sudden HALT! News came to us that the train had derailed! What were we going to do? Everyone was wondering how long it would take to resume our trip...

We had waited and waited, then we got news that it would maybe take 2, 3, or 4 hours! There was no way we would get back to Willits, by 8:00 pm! Trying to pass along the time, we waited, ate lots and lots of popcorn, and sang along to every Christmas song anyone could think of! Then my sister Brenda asked if she could play the music on her phone through the big speaker, so that all the train carts could hear it! Soon, we were all rocking out to Justin Beiber’s version of Drummer Boy. Waiting in boredom for the train to get moving, we decided to form a dance circle! Going in one by one, everyone had their turn at dancing in the center of the circle. It WAS a blast! The party-poopers stayed in their seats and just acted like total old people..:( However, those of us who wished for fun, certainly had a joyous time.

Then Santa arrived!! We gave him our letters and off he went! Santa’s elves came and passed out more popcorn and hot chocolate! We didn’t get home until about 11:30. Even though we didn’t get to experience the Christmas Train, to it’s full effect, it was still the FUNNEST train ride EVER!

Remember! “May all your crusts be round.”

Or that Brad Pitt's is Pumpkin. And Angelina Jolie's is Lemon Meringue. Taylor Swift's and Johnny Depp's favorite is Apple Pie. And Celine Dion's is Custard! Taylor Laughtner's is Pecan Pie! Shiloh Fernandez is Blackberry Pie, and did you 
know that this famous 'Red Riding Hood' star lived in Ukiah? Or that he went to St. Marys Catholic school? I wonder if he has ever had our Blackberry Pie...Doris Day's favorite is Blueberry Crust.

Thanksgiving week!

Good Afternoon Pie Lovers!! 

Thanksgiving is just in a couple of days and Kemmy's Kitchen very busy! We're baking so many pies, people can smell them from blocks away! We have sold 297 pies today, and yesterday we sold 200! Kemmy's crew is on the fifth straight day of working. The days are getting longer at 13 around hours a day. Special thanks to our extra help, Denise and Nicole. We couldn't have done it without them!

Every Thanksgiving in our house we have this special tradition. We each make a new recipe! It has been a fun way to try new things. At around 11, we have appetizers and then we eat lunch! After lunch we all sit in the living room and watch a special Christmas movie. Then we go and make dinner. My parents' house has always been open to anyone with no place to go on Thanksgiving. Sometimes there's 15 extra people, other times there are 20... And that is just a glimpse into my family's Thanksgiving.

We hope that you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and feel the love that goes into each Kemmy's Pie!

May All Your Crusts Be Round

Good Afternoon Pie lovers! 

Sorry it’s been such a long time since I have blogged... Did you miss me? Well I’m back in the country! 

My room mates name was Camille she was 11, only one month younger than me. Her mother’s name was Katty, short for Katherine, and the father’s name was Theirry. He was a history teacher and the mother was an economics teacher at the community college. She had a 15 year old sister named Pauline. The first night I was there we had nutella crepes which were delicious! They gave me the recipe to take back to America. King Henry IV lived there for 5 years before he became King. My host family took me to the castle were he lived and they told me the whole story! Neraq is so beautiful! I forgot my camera on the airplane so we tried to call Air France lost and found, but they couldn’t guarantee finding it, but thankfully my friends got pictures. We danced day and night, from 10 to 6:30 or sometimes 8:30. The Casse Noisette (nutcracker) came together very well, considering we had such a little time to put it together. Here is a little picture of me and Camille right after the show!

I hope in the future the French Ballet will travel to America! 3 days before we left we went to Bordeaux and toured there famous opera house! It was beautiful!! I got a lot of pictures, but they are gone now. After we toured the opera house we went shopping!! The clothes there are soooo cool! I got used to the time over there which is a 9 hour difference, so I've been waking up at 3 and 4 every morning since I've been back!! 

Back on the pie note, Kemmy's has catered every single weekend in October. Tomorrow they are catering breakfast for the "Wine & Mushroom Train." The menu is pie, egg bakes, fruit, coffee cake, bagels, lemon bars, brownies, and also some special yummy trays for the sponsor cars. And it all has to be completed by 8 in the morning, busy busy!!
