Brownies Delivered To The Mystery Dinner

On March 5th the whole team at Fairytale Brownies had our annual "Holiday" party. During December we're all so busy shipping our gourmet brownie gifts that we barely have time to catch our breath, let alone have a company holiday party. So every year we have our annual party in February or March.

This year our social committee planned a great theme for the event - a Murder Mystery Dinner Theater. The folks at Murder Ink Productions did a great job entertaining all of us and also getting us involved in the "murder." Most of the team members had a role to play in the dual-murder of the Godfather Guiseppe Calzone and his daughter Tootsie.

We always have a great time at our post-season parties. Over the years we've gone bowling, had dinner parties, and even gone to the races. It's a great way to build team spirit and give ourselves a little well-deserved reward after we send brownies all over the world during the busy holiday season!!

We're already looking forward to next year!

About The Author

My name is David Kravetz and I am the co-founder of Fairytale Brownies. Eileen Spitalny and I began Fairytale Brownies in 1992 with little more than a family recipe and a wonderful partnership. From my earliest childhood I can remember the smell of fresh-baked brownies in our kitchen, and the shear joy I experienced sneaking that first bite when they came out of the oven.

Eileen and I met in kindergarten and have been friends ever since. We've shared more brownie snacks than I can possibly remember. In the beginning we sold our gourmet brownies at street fairs and farmers' markets. All the winter visitors in Phoenix kept asking us to ship the brownie gifts back home to friends and family. And before we knew it, a mail-order business was born.

At Fairytale Brownies we have the most incredible team of talented, energetic, and dedicated people. It has been a true joy watching them grow personally and professionally over these many years. In this blog I plan to share some of the stories and experiences that make this such an exciting and wonderful place to work. Thanks for reading!
