Scratching your head over what to get dad on Father’s Day?
Well… may we suggest COFFEE!

It’s a Great Father’s Day Gift or add-on to any other Father’s Day gift. Just about every daddy-o enjoys a good cup of Joe.
Here’s one example of a Father’s Day “Dad-Pack!”
This trio contains our most popular flavored coffee, HIghlander Grogg, much loved by just about all coffee drinkers. THE perfect morning eye opener, Breakfast Blend and a “world gem” single bean coffee variety, Tanzanian Peaberry. Buy 1/2 pound each, enough for
16 big pots of coffee for less than 15-cents per cup. And that’s the best “top of the crop” arabica coffee beans the world has to offer!
Choose this or any combo from over 50 regular and flavored coffees! Come check it out. We’re waitin’ for ya, On The Bricks in downtown McCook.

When it comes time to peel all those boiled and colored Easter eggs, one of these gadgets can make that chore super-duper easy. We discovered the NEGG a few years ago and it’s been one of the gadgets we sell (and we are gadget crazy for sure) that we’ve received unsolicited positive feedback from customers who purchased one. And that’s always so nice! We’re located on the bricks and invite you to stop by any time for a closer look…we’re waitin’ for ya!!

As the sourdough “wave” continues to grow and perfection becomes the goal, we’re now stocking a couple new items that will take the guesswork and second guessing regarding sourdough starter and dough proofing. Brod & Taylor’s SOURDOUGH HOME will maintain the proper temp for the best starter growth and the FOLDABLE DOUGH PROOFER AND SLOW COOKER will provide continuous and optimum dough proofing temperatures. These two items will certainly provide the best opportunity for the best results in your sourdough bread baking adventures! Brod & Taylor has published short demo videos on both these products on YouTube if you’re curious and would like more detailed info. Check out the videos then check them out in person right here on the bricks in downtown McCook! Stop by any time. We’re waitin’ for ya!

Every once in a while along comes a product that gets an all caps rating on the WOW scale, and here it is. The 2-in-1 Oil Sprayer and Dispenser. With this little beauty you can easily spray a light coat of your favorite olive (or other) oil and just as easily pour a more generous amount for other needs! This tool is two thumbs in our opinion and they are inexpensive enough to have more than one for different or flavored oils! Stop in and check them out next time you’re on the bricks. We’re waitin’ for ya!

Here’s a big, BIG thank you to every single customer we’ve seen so far this Christmas shopping season. Many of you we see regularly, many we see once in a while and some are first time visitors to our store. We’d like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and thanks for stopping by. Oh, and, even though our dear Laura has put in a zillion hours of store work, day and night, she still found time to make the most incredible bon-bon’s you can imagine. See how she whips those tails around like that. It’s amazing, a sight to behold!
