Cookies and Almond Roca Time 2016
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday. Lots of food and desserts, what is not to love? I have another experience that I enjoy this time of year. I enjoy delivering holiday goodies.
My wife is an excellent pastry chef and candy maker (I know, I am lucky). She makes 100 dozen holiday cookies from old hand written Slovak family recipes. She and my children make about 100 pounds of Homemade Almond Roca. I get the pleasure of delivering those treats to friends and customers. If you received this email, you may be on the list to receive cookies or Almond Roca or both. Some people prefer the cookies and some people prefer the Roca.
She makes 11 or 12 different types of cookies. She will typically make 7 or 8 of those types and alternating them from year to year. A few of those types are favorites of our friends that she will make every year. Those are the Butter Nut Cookies (pictured), the Pecan Tassies (small pecan pies), Pecan Balls and her Nut Roll (pictured).
Red and Green Cookies
Here is a picture of “Butter Nut Cookies with Glazed Cherries”.
Putting cookies into Boxes
Many of our friends have a favorite cookie type. If you have a favorite cookie type, let me know.
Everyone loves getting the Almond Roca. There are only four ingredients: Chocolate, Almonds, Sugar and Butter. A simple recipe but it takes four days for each 10 pound batch of candy to cook, cool, roast, dip and roll, dry and package.

I look forward to delivering these candy and cookie treats to you. I hope to see everyone over the next month, so I can say thank you for trusting Kinetic Die Casting Company to manufacture your die casting parts.

Mothers Day 2016 and Candy
In six days – Sunday, May 8th is Mothers Day 2016.
Why do we celebrate Mothers Day? For “the person who has done more for you than anyone in the world” – Anna Jarvis. The US holiday of Mother’s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at Saint Andrew’s Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Saint Andrew’s Methodist Church has an International Mother’s Day Shrine now to remember. Her campaign to make “Mother’s Day” a recognized holiday in the United States began in 1905, the year her mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, died. The mother, Ann Jarvis, had been a peace activist who cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the American Civil War. Ann created Mother’s Day Work Clubs to address public health issues. Anna Jarvis wanted to honor her mother by continuing the work she started and to set aside a day to honor all mothers.
Traditional gifts to Mothers include: flowers, candy, a dinner at a nice restaurant or a spa treatment. Whatever you decide to do for your mother, remember to do something.

Presidents’ Day 2016 and Almond Roca
Presidents’ Day 2016 – The third Monday in February is Presidents’ Day. Washington’s Birthday was a United States federal holiday.
This holiday, celebrated on the third Monday of February in honor of George Washington, our first President of the United States. Now, this day is known as Presidents Day, and is often an occasion to remember all the U.S. presidents, not just George Washington’s actual birthday, February 22 or Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday is February 12th. The term “Presidents’ Day” used to change the holiday into a day honoring multiple American presidents.
Recently, the February holiday is a day in which many retail stores, especially furniture stores and car dealerships, hold discount sales. Until the late 1980s, banks and corporate businesses closed on this day, similar to present corporate and bank practices on Memorial Day or Christmas Day. With the late 1980s advertising push to rename the holiday, more retail businesses are staying open during the holiday each year, and, as on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Veterans Day and Columbus Day. Many colleges and universities hold regular classes and operations on Presidents’ Day. Most U.S. Postal Service delivery services offer regular service on the day.
Happy Presidents’ Day – Kinetic Die Casting Company will be open on this day for regular hours to serve our customers. We are currently shipping our new production part purchase orders in 4 weeks. We are thankful to our customers for their production parts they purchase from us.
