Nightly Noms Update: Menu, Relay, Catering!

Hello Nomsters!

I hope everyone enjoyed January, we definitely got our fair share of winter weather alerts. Anyway, just wanted to update everyone on Nightly Noms! We've been testing out new items in the kitchen, which has resulted in us offering Banana Blondies and S'mores cookies as February 2nd delivery options. The Banana Blondies are probably the better choice for those seeking a sweet treat that doesn't involve chocolate, moist and gooey, these blondies have the delicious flavor of bananas in bar form. Similarly, the S'more cookies pack a punch for those looking for the campfire combo without the mess. Each cookie is filled with chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces for a delicious treat.

Remember, Nightly Noms not only bakes for the weekly delivery service, but we also offer "catering." So, if you're looking to have a Valentine's day soiree, but don't want to bake, just email us and we'll take on the challenge! Or, if you want a dozen cookies, muffins, or S'mores bars for a birthday party or just to nibble on, email us and we can do side orders that can be picked up/dropped off on whatever day you want them! The possibilities are endless (and tasty).

Finally, we'd love if you'd join the Georgetown Foodie+Nightly Noms Relay for Life team! It's a great opportunity to get involved with Nightly Noms and our fundraisers and events are sure to be tasty! So sign up here, and we'll be sure to invite you to our first event, which will be a "Noms with Nightly Noms" event to show our appreciation to our new team members!

Anywho, look out for some restaurant reviews in the near future, and keep an eye on the twitter and facebook for east "put togethers" as meals/snacks!

Nightly Noms Menu Update: Say Hello to Halloween!

Hey Georgetowners,

We know you love a good Halloween weekend, and while we won't be providing you with delivery service after you return from your escapades on Halloween night, nothing's going to stop us from bringing you some tasty treats the Wednesday before!


This past week, Nightly Noms featured our newest muffin: Pumpkin Apple (maybe we'll name it "The Charlie Brown", which was a huge hit according to people in the Voice office, so we'll be offering those again for the October 27th delivery. Along with those moist apple-packed muffins, we'll be baking up "Halloween Fudge Browns" which will be festively decorated for the occasion (think candy corn accents)! These thick, over sized brownies are fudgey, gooey, and pair wonderfully with a glass of milk! Take a bite out of them this Wednesday and hopefully they'll appear on the menu more often!

So pregame your candy-filled Halloween weekend with a dose of homemade baked goods!

You know you won't regret it....

Happy Baking!

-Nightly Noms
[p.s. if you would really like us to bake up chocolate chip cookies this week, feel free to voice your opinion via comments, our wall, or email, we'll listen :) ]

NN Update: Falling into Seasonal Favorites

Hello Nomsters!

I hope everyone on Georgetown's campus is enjoying their Thursday night and are getting ready to relax over the lovely three day weekend! I've returned home to Chicago for the break, but I promised a post about the latest tastes that Nightly Noms has been baking up, so here we go!

With the leaves turning and the fall breeze stirring, we've decided to "spice" up our weekly delivery menu a bit. Two weeks ago we offered Chewy Gingersnap cookies and Pumpkin Brown Sugar Muffins (aka Pumpkin Spice). Both items were a hit and we hope that if you have a moment you'll take a bit of time to leave a comment/review either on this blog or at nightlynoms@gmail.com.

Our gingersnaps are a chewy combination of spicy and sweet goodness that is sure to give you a pick me up after a few hours studying in Lau!

The Pumpkin Brown Sugar Muffins we baked up were a moist mix of pumpkin and cinnamon with a sweet brown sugar coating on top. Maybe you aren't craving pumpkin pie yet, but these muffins are definitely a tasty addition to a Pumpkin Spice Latte or cup of coffee!






And finally, for this past week's delivery Nightly Noms baked up our well-known Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins and our latest seasonal addition: Pumpkin Snickerdoodles. Regardless of being a baker, foodie, eater, or just random enjoyer of baked goods, Snickerdoodles are a fun cookie because of the name itself, not to mention the overall taste of warm, chewy, cinnamon-sugar covered Snickerdoodles is delicious. Adding pumpkin to the mix seemed like a fun alteration and ended up making more than one person say "nom nom."


Anywho, I hope you've enjoyed this quick update on the NN menu, we'll likely be offering these new Noms well into the month of November, along with adding others that we've been tweaking on in the test kitchen and of course the usual favorites!

Remember, we're here to improve your "foodie experience," so feel free to email us requests and questions. And while you're procrastinating on Facebook, we'd really really appreciate if you'd invite your friends to "like" us.

All the best and Happy Baking!

Update+Weekly Orders!

Hey Nomsters,

Thanks for a great first week of deliveries. As some of you know, we had a few minor problems with our oven, but hopefully all is well now!

Along with thanking our supporters, Nightly Noms has to give a big shout out to The Georgetown Voice blog and Chris Heller, Vox Populi for writing a great post about NN. We really appreciate the support. Concerning comments on the post, of course with the good, comes the skeptical, so for those of you who left some “interesting” comments on the post… oh well, we can’t win all of Georgetown over in the first round!

In regards to this week’s delivery offerings, we’re baking up Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, Cinnamon Apple Breakfast Muffins, and Chocolate Chip Cookies. Once again, please, please try to order the Muffins 6pm on Wed. to ensure you get your noms, but feel free to order cookies up until 11:30pm!

Order Here! :)

Here’s a bit of a description also:

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins: Our traditional muffin batter loaded with extra bananas, cinnamon, and chocolate chips. These muffins are moist and are great served warm for breakfast or dessert.

Cinnamon Apple Muffins: These special muffins are made from “Amish Friendship Bread” batter, meaning that we use a starter. If you’re unsure of what this “starter” business is, it basically means we were given a base to a recipe that we must maintain and bake every ten days to ensure that we can keep making the muffins. We sort of see the starter as our baby, day one we have the starter, day six we “feed” the starter sugar, milk, and flour, and day ten we bake! Then it’s back to day one again. This recipe yields an extremely soft muffin with a cinnamon swirl, and to give you a serving of fruit for the day, NN has baked up these muffins with apples. (the recipe we linked to is different from ours, but the website gives some good info!)

Chocolate Chip Cookies: Chocolate Chip Cookies are always a favorite and when they have a nice soft texture, life just gets a little bit better! So place your orders before Wednesday or that night and we’ll do our best to make sure they get to you warm!

Remember, our recipes are from scratch, meaning less preservatives! Nightly Noms also tries to use less sugar and more natural sweeteners, like fruit!

Thanks for the support and hopefully we'll deliver to you soon!
