we are getting a sign

We are getting a sign today. It is going to great for our business, we are so happy to finally get one up. Unfortunately it won't say trio cafe it is going to be kozy Kitchen but as long as we have a sign thats a good thing. We are also doing construction little by little, We have finished the office in the back and are now working on taking the back walls down so we can move everything back. The sign should really help us get ready for the major construction. If we can get enough in the next two weeks then we can be done with the construction by the middle of march and then it is all up hill from there. We also have picked up on our catering and what a funny idea we are going to sell the cakes on ebay. well thats all that's going on lately.

The wall didn't come down. We got alittle ahead of ourselves. Being patient is beginning to get frustrating, we are hoping to work up enough to handle the construction costs. We are still doing all the work ourselves. It is really funny how well we are doing, We still don't have a sign so we are doing all this business truly by word of mouth. It is amazing really to see new faces everyday and all the people who make it a routine stop whether on thier way to work or when they go out. I never knew how exciting it could be to go back to the beginning and start from point a again. We are updating all the equipment and redoing things everyday. The weekends are beginning to pick up. I get in early now to bake fresh weekend items. We are working on our corporate cake program trying to improve the service of our current customers and going to new customers. We have gained a few customers and this month is starting to look very good. I guess thats all to update.

The wall is coming down

This is the weekend that we are taking the wall down, i am so excited. We have to close to do it though. We are bringing in everyone from Nick's family to help with the construction, but we are doing everything by ourselves which could be a good thing or a bad thing. we will just have to see. I did my second catering event today at a local bank. It is going really good we brought cinnamon rolls and muffins and parfaits. we also have started to bring box lunches so they don't have to leave to have a good lunch. I think we are going to do it twice a week if it keeps going well. It is pretty nice everything we make we bring back to the cafe so it helps with the extra cash flow. We still don't have a sign nor have we done any kind of advertising but we are supposed to get a sign up with our official name "TRIO CAFE" and Bakery. At least we have a name now, we can start printing business cards and flyers. Everything is going to really get rolling as soon as this wall goes down. When we get this wall down we can really see how much space we have to play with in the front. I still think we will be able to do the banquettes and i think we might have more space then we planned for couches and tables. It is all really exciting because it will all come together after this weekend.
