Going to try to blog

Hello! How have you guys been? Its been so long... Or several months. Lets go over the sad first. The shop is closed. And it sucks. Packing was awful. Putting all the memories into boxes was excruciating. But the worst part? At least for me was the smell. By the time all was said and done the place smelled so bland and lifeless. The years of garlic and herbs were just gone. Ugggggghhhh! So much hard work LITRALLY out the window. The homey feeling was just gone.

The less sad. The shop is in storage. Totally ready to pop back up again one day. Or be discovered on an episode of Storage Wars! Oh no! It has to be reorganized but yeah.

I hope your dealing with the closure well. That you've had other places of comfort to fall back. No 2 places are exactly the same but I hope that doors were open for you and the void was filled. Just know we are here if you wanna talk.

What have we been up to shop wise? Grant applications! Location tours! Investment opportunity's! Working OT! What has come of it? Nothing! We can't find a suitable affordable location in Harrisburg. Grants have yielded absolutely nothing. And investors want us to drop the anime/fandom aspect. So we regrouped and are saving for a food truck... which are dumb expensive. BUT if we acquire one the shall be an almost immediate part 2 to the plan! Which is awesome and 65% thpught out.

How much do we have saved currently? After all the shop fees and dues that were left over, personal expenses, etc, $600! Yeah! Still got a long way to go but I'm hustling. Working 2 jobs!

But that's all for now. I'll update soon.

All my care,

Chef D
