Today is pretty significant for Gretchen Bee Ranch! We are very happy to share that our honey is now available in our very first retail outlet – the wonderful Lily’s Cookies of San Antonio. ๐ Mark took several cases and orders in for a San Antonio delivery today and stopped by the shop to set up a display of our honey. I sure wish I could have been there with him for this first but I am happy to see a few shots of the setup and he had a great time doing it and working with the folks there.
Where to begin! I used to live in the Monte Vista area of San Antonio before Mark and I married and I love, love, love the small, locally owned shops in that area. I discovered Lily’s Cookies many months ago when I drove down McCullough for old times sake. I stopped in for a cookie, fell in love, snapped a few pictures…and the rest is history. And as with all places and things I appreciate and love, I started sharing with my friends how great this cookie boutique is – it’s more than just a bakery, it’s an awesome experience!
Christine is the owner and she and her staff are wonderful – friendly and helpful. And the cookies are both beautiful AND delicious. Their creations are divine. Though I love the cookies for myself, I enjoy even more picking out special ones for those I care about – like these special anniversary cookies Christine and her staff made for us so I could surprise Mark back in July. They were so great, I could hardly bear to bite into them. Mark liked them a lot and dug right in. ๐ Ok, I know I’m going on and on but it’s because I’m so excited about this news and I can’t wait to visit next week. If you are in SA or passing through, please do stop by and check out the shop. You won’t regret it. We are very excited for the opportunity to partner with Christine on a this new adventure!
