Credits & Thanks.
We would like to offer a huge THANKS from the Palatable Pair to family, friends and various party guests over the years relentlessly using the phrase "This is good, you should sell this." As we say it takes at least a Pair to Entertain, it takes a Party to move to the next level. While Kevin and I kept the magnitude of this project mostly to ourselves, the following people paid their due diligence for us to put our sale sign out. |

The Cooking...
Le Fou Frog, Mano and Barbara Rafael for their open hearts and generous support in moving The Palatable Pair to a new level. Darren Miller for helping us get through Christmas, and last but not least to Linda Rei for putting in the time every week to help make this happen.

The Design.
Kit, our Graphic Designer and good friend, who tirelessly created the ultimate gourmet identity starting with my lacking prototypes, her patience of mandatory original artwork, enduring several very nitpicky edits, all while 7, 8, 9... months pregnant with her third child - age 3 and under. In her spare time. She actually gave birth the night we sent the labels to press.
(Kit Spratlin Design, kspratlin@mac.com) |
The Artist. Joe Gregory, the original Artist of the pair of pears. Joe and the owner of his original painting, were kind enough to allow us to photograph Joe's painting for the logo. You couldn't ask for better fruit on canvas than Mr. Gregory, as we all know in Kansas City. Especially Tom Deatherage, of The Late Show, who got me hooked on my first Joe Gregory piece.
(Joe Gregory artwork can be found at The Late Show, 816.474.1300) |

The Technology.
Craig Barthol and Brad Richardson of RightClic.com. Their commitment of The Right Clic, Right Now held true while they effortlessly endured our late night phone calls and web creation sessions and needs. FlexWeb Rocks (what we used to create this website). (FlexWeb, www.RightClic.com)

The Inception.
Lastly, Mrs. Angela Hansen will forever be in our minds when we ponder the decision to launch The Palatable Pair. Poor Angela was the last known soul to ask (via sister) for "that great Chutney recipe" to take home for the holidays. After over five years of pondering this venture, if we meant business, we had less than a week to create a name, find a jar, and ship in time for her holiday travels. And as a bonus we threw in Kevin's latest spontaneous creation, The Almonds. She was the push over the edge to us, and we are grateful. |
