Black Betty is Our Girl

July 27, 2011About Us, Food Truck, Pressdevteam

Ladies and Gentlemen…. it’s been a whirlwind. Precisely three and a half months ago the people of Windows Phones presented us with the idea of sponsoring a food truck. They heard lasagna cupcakes were terrific and why not make a cute little lasagna cupcake truck? Here’s a sizeable amount of cash to get you started and the tradeoff is the truck needs to be wrapped with a Windows Phone banner for six months like Rocky’s robe in his first big fight.

Our Logo Gets A Facelift

July 22, 2011About Usdevteam

When Matt and I started Heirloom two years ago, I knew zero about graphics and very little about photoshop, okay I knew nothing. We hired a graphic designer to come up with a logo, but she became irritated with me very fast. In her original logo, there were lots of ligatures (I didn’t know what that word meant, I had to look it up because she kept saying it over and over)and flourishes (my word), it just looked girly.

They’re in! A half ton of organic seascape strawberries and we can smell them in the office even when the walk-in door is closed. Here’s what we’re going to do with them, and maybe roll out a pie or two.

Sausage…. most of us love to eat it but don’t really care to know how it is made. I will keep the story short. We get in whole pigs and we don’t waste any part of them.

As we grow, we have new additions to our team. Here is Peter and Spencer.

Good-Bye Cherry Season

July 10, 2011Dessertsdevteam

Cherry Pie…. my favorite but only when the cherries are rich and robust and so filled with a concentration of flavor that their thin skins can hardly contain them. It’s upsetting that they don’t make it to July because when at their peak, cherries, especially those found at Murray Family Farms, taste like fireworks in your mouth.

Matt Is No One Trick Pony

Oh, it’s getting hot here in Los Angeles which means it’s time for some shaving at the home front. You may have already admired Matt’s command of sharp objects in blog posts of yore but here he takes it to a different level.
