My Mom, Rollande, is 95 Feb 7th & still dancing, Her, Birthday party was to be held Feb.6 2014. I made a mistake in ordering by telephone, requesting 5 "Fruit top cheese cakes". After X-country skiing Capreol, I went to pick up my order the night before & was horrified, they were so small, how could I cut enough for 50 people? What I had meant to order was 5 - 8" Fruit top custard Flams! Realizing it was my fault I should have taken the time to order in person, I was frankly so distraught I felt sick. "I want her party to be special, I don't like cakes.. & besides she may not be dancing for long, she could wind up in a wheel chair next month.. etc." I was near tears, "Oh god I am so stupid!" I put my head down on the counter, I was that stressed I couldn't move. Tina (evening Manager) calmed me down saying "Don't worry, we will fix it." Tina contacted Dennis the baker at home, saying "he would make them special for me in the morning ready for pick-up by 11 am.
Feb 6, mom & I slept in. Our telephones were dead, & we missed our wake-up call! Frantic I pulled myself together and when I picked them up I was truly amazed! Dennis had created 5 very beautiful works of art! Mom's party at Br 76 Legion was a huge success. Everyone wanted to know where I got them? Saying, they were beautiful and so delicious, exclaiming they had never tasted anything like it before!
I have always been a big fan of Dumas grocer, because the staff, always are so kind, caring & sympathetic. I have Parkinsonism severe allergies etc. and often I want something they don't carry. Whatever I desire, they always try and get it for me,
Feb. 6th Dennis out did himself, creating a truly sensational luscious magnificent masterpiece. And thanks to Tina, and Dumas staff, Mom's birthday party will never be forgotten. Trudi Trahan-upchan, author free nonprofit; www.okra-diet-detox.com read more
