GRAND OPENING

Even though we have been open for 2 weeks now we had our official ribbon cutting yesterday. It is so cool living in a small town like Havana. We were passing out flyers on Friday announcing the opening and Melody's Hair Happenings offered to let us use this giant pair of scissors to cut the ribbon, our sign guy has a Grand Opening sign he let us borrow, and the florist blew up our balloons in exchange for lunch. Only in a small town are people willing to barter and trade wtih you. I love it.
Robert is our monkey if there is anything we want hung he is our man to go to.
Laura this one is for you. This is the view from my take out window.

Chris and the kids came over for lunch. OMG they just keep getting taller and taller. All three of them tower over me now.

As we are settling into our routine we have each discovered our little nitches. tom and Amanda are the cooks, I man the window, and Robert backs up whoever is in need. He is good in either location. The girls bus the tables for tips. In reality they just go out and wipe them off since everything is disposable, but it gives them a job to do too so they feel included.
I must go get ready to go up to the resturant. Drop in if you are in the neighborhood.
