Each year the holiday season brings about a feeling of not only joy but STRESS as well! The freeways are crowded, the shopping malls are packed and even Santa can't keep up with a busy line at his toy shop! However, every year the Johnson's, owners of Susan's Healthy Gourmet find time to make the holidays extra special for their employees. This year we went and celebrated at Italian Restaurant Bucca de Beppo and we had an amazing time. Many of the employees could not stress enough how thankful they were to work for a place that felt just like home, and it's true, it's like working with family everyday. We had lunch family style, sharing appetizers, lunch plates and even passing around all the delicious desserts because that's what we are here at SHG, family!! After lunch, Susan passed around a basket of goodies and we all got to share with each other the favorite part of our jobs, and the Johnson's shared their favorite part about each and everyone of us individually. I just wanted to take this time, on behalf of all of us here at SHG, to say thank you! Thank you Susan for being such a great mentor, Kerry for being such a great leader and John aka John-John for always being there for us! I know I would not love my job as much as I do if it were not for the three of you and I know for a fact everyone else feels exactly the same way! I also wanted to take this time to share our holiday story with our customers so that you all could understand all the spirit that is shared here, especially during the special holiday season. We hope you all have a happy and safe holidays and to the Johnson's thanks again!!
