Today marks one of my favorite celebrations of the year – Halloween. I have so many great memories as a kid – picking out my costumes, decorating the house, running the neighborhood with my siblings and buddies, making sure the neighbors 10 doors down could hear us yelling “Trick or Treat”, sorting candy on the […]
Here at KHT, we love our motto (thanks, Dad!). It’s a call, and a promise, to all of our customers, to send us those pesky (I really like the word pesky!!) thermal processing jobs that keep you up at night, so we can “do our thing” providing amazing solutions, production, and delivery. Driving this summer, […]
As a devout “foodie” (which just means I pretty much love all food), today marks a special day on my calendar – National Pasta Day – simply celebrating the sheer joy of pasta. (whoever thought of this is a genius!) Though it’s widely observed on this day, the exact origin of this “holiday” is unclear […]
If you’ve had the pleasure of raising kids and watching them grow up to exceed your expectations, then this story is for you. Now that our own girls have grown and found their “niche” in work, life, and the community, we’ve come to appreciate that “proud parent” feeling even more. (It even carries over into […]
Isn’t it groovy baby, how certain slang terms define periods of time? The other night, Jackie and I were watching an oldie movie, and the women were called “dames” and the men were “on the lam from the coppers” and needed to “lay low from the heat”. Our language has always been a reflection of […]
It’s fun to look back at how ideas become inventions, patents mark time, and innovations spread into our culture and daily routines. At a recent shopping visit with Jackie, I watched the cashier “fly” through our grocery selections, happily chatting away as she was listening for the beeps of the barcode reader. It got me […]
We are so lucky to have enjoyed so much great music over the years – blues, pop, country, hip-hop, soul, R&B, rock, funk, punk, and so much more. I was driving the other day and heard one of my classic favorites from Earth, Wind & Fire. Something about their joy for music and fun got […]
Inspiration. It’s part of the ethos here at KHT. Coupled with our ambition, curiosity, determination and desire, it helps drive our mission to solve your PIA (Pain in the @%$) Jobs! It gets us up in the morning and sometimes keeps us here after most people are already headed home for the day. Throughout our […]
Recently Jackie and I were driving back from a trip up to northern Michigan (it has amazing landscape, water, quaint little towns and shops – you need to go!). During our drive we kept encountering these beautiful farms, often featuring amazing red barns. Of course, our conversation led to barn design, what it must be […]
Labor Day weekend marks the perfect pause before the seasons begin to change – a moment to appreciate the dignity of all work and the gift of rest. It’s more than a day off; it’s a national “thank you” to everyone who builds, serves, creates, teaches, grows, drives, heals, and supports our communities each day. […]
