There's something about
🍤 🌮 shrimp tacos 🍤 🌮 that makes my face happy 😊! Maybe it's the heavenly aroma of garlic and butter, or the magical blend of four spices sprinkled like fairy dust, or perhaps it's the freshness of the Thompson’s homegrown garden tomatoes made into pico and the freshly grated Tillamook cheese (my ultimate weakness), crisp greens, and our super secretive sauce that's guaranteed to drizzle down your chin! Whatever the reason, I'm crossing my fingers you score a few of these bad boys and I get to see your beaming faces this week!

And on the sweet side:
Mac Nut Sticky Buns
French Toast Bake
BA Mac Nut White Choc Cookies
Banana Custard Cups
&🍓 🫐 Red, White and Blue
Cheesecake -oh yum!!!😋

🛑a friendly reminder-we will not be open Saturday July 4 🛑
please stay safe and have a great 250th celebration for AMERICA 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙 🇺🇸

A reminder, The Sweet Life closed for health recovery ❤️‍🩹!
We sure do miss seeing you all and look forward to seeing y’all again next week!

This is a hard decision to make...but we will need to be closed this week, as the majority of our workhorses are in the midst of just getting sick, to just beginning to recover from whatever this yuck is, as a fearless leader, it was time to make the call and allow us all time to heal up and fully recover. Please plan your coffee fix, treats, and lunches accordingly! We truly are sorry for being sick, and for any convenience this may cause!!! The Sweet Life .
Feel free to share this post and help me get the word out so no one makes a disappointing trip only to have our doors locked! 😳
