Sponsor Spotlight; Crackers to Caviar

This article appeared in the March, 2009 issue of the Nebraska Family Times. Crackers to Caviar is a Nebraska Family Times sponsor.

Crackers to Caviar
Columbus, NE

Janet Meays took over Crackers to Caviar in May of 2007. She had worked several jobs in retail, and always knew she wanted to have her own business. “It was important to me to sell Christian products of some kind, and this was a great opportunity!”

Crackers to Caviar is a place to come, as they say, “When it’s time for a break from the ordinary.” Crackers to Caviar carries a wide variety of fun, not-so-ordinary products—gourmet coffee, tea, truffles, biscotti, and many Nebraska snacks, from jellies to chocolates to popcorn and soup mixes. You will also find Bibles, the latest Christian books (for all ages), cards for all occasions, and unique gift items for any budget and occasion.

Janet and her very friendly staff members will make gift baskets filled with any items in the store—they have many suggestions and ideas to put together just what you need for any occasion. They also do customized corporate orders.

The staff members enjoy coming up with new drinks, so if you’re craving a smoothie, gourmet coffee drink, chai tea, or cappuccino, they will create something that’s just right for you!

Owning Crackers to Caviar is a family affair; Janet’s son and daughter both work at the shop, and her husband takes care of the accounting.

Janet’s favorite part of her job is talking with people and helping them, whether that means fixing them the perfect cup of coffee, helping them find the right gift for a special someone, or just chatting for a few minutes.

Crackers to Caviar is located at 2710 13th Street, Columbus, NE. It’s open 7 AM – 5:30 PM Monday – Friday (until 8 PM on Thursday), and 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM on Saturday.

Medical Mission Team Leaves Today

Prayers for God to watch over the travel and work of the Columbus Medical Mission Team as they travel to Nicaragua and treat patients there.

Check out the article about their trip, that was published in the Nebraska Family Times and is also on this blog.

I so admire the people who are on their way right now! Perhaps a medical mission trip is in my future?
