This year may be a bit nuts but nothing is stopping 86-years young Sally Schoch from fulfilling her dream. She and daughter, Kari Guhl are the proud owners of the newly opened Sally’s Nuts and Snack Shop in the Ravinia District of Highland Park, offering their signature sweet & salty Sally’s Nuts as well as a grab-n-go menu of fun, affordable simple sandwiches, salads, snacks, cheese boards, sweets, drinks, and fun inspired merchandise. “It’s never too late to chase a dream!!” says Highland Park-resident Kari Guhl of her moms’ 15-year fetish with making and perfecting nuts for her family and friends. “Everyone would tell Sal she should sell her delicious creations and now I am so happy to see my mom’s dream become a reality. As Sal says, ‘I want to achieve my dream and who knows what the future holds.’” Sally’s Nuts handcrafted sweet & salty pecans, cashews and almonds are the perfect accompaniment to the Snack Shop’s array of homemade sandwiches, salads, cheese and meat boards. Some of the affordable, simple options on the menu include peanut butter & jelly, bologna & cheese, cucumber or egg salad sandwiches, and don’t forget the bag of carrots! There are also family favorite salads, dressings, and sweets recipes including the creative Junkanoos™ and Scrabble Mix™ (you have to come in for yourself to taste and learn more!). Inspired by Kari’s son, Sally’s Nuts offers a full line of ‘merch’ perfect for bundling with the sensational nuts in terrific tote bags. The Merch Menu includes the ordinary T’s, sweatshirt, knit, beanie and baseball hats, to the more unique aprons, tea towels, sponges and cutting boards, making customizing a gift for any “Sally” or “nut” a great holiday gift option. Gaining recognition as the nuttiest girls around, this dynamic mother daughter duo can be found making the handcrafted nuts and all the yummy snacks in the back of their shop at 481 Roger Williams Avenue. They invite the public to come get a little nutty and sample some of the best nuts around! Hours are Tuesday- Saturday 10AM- 6PM.
