Getting Back into the Swing of Things

I was a little side tracked during the holidays, as I think everyone is at some point. The business was put on hold while we spent quality time with friends and family. It was great catching up with family near and far, as well as our friends. Paul's family visited from Virginia and our very good friends, Tina and Tom, flew in from San Francisco. We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful holiday!

We hosted all our friends for a New Years Brunch. It was a great way to get everyone together now that we are spread all over the place. If you're not from Philadelphia, you may not be familiar with the Mummer's Parade. It's like Mardi Gras, but freezing cold. After brunch, we all walked to center city to enjoy a little of the parade. The costumes are elaborate, and the music gets you moving. If you ever get the chance, be sure to check it out. Julian got his first taste of the Mummer's this year.

Now that the decorations are put away, it's time to focus my energy back on getting the business off the ground. Paul and I are starting our class at Wharton which will help us finish our business plan. A good friend of ours, Jenna is putting the final touches on our logo (which I hope to have real soon). And I am ready to offer some taste testing samples to some families in our neighborhood. I hope their feedback will help me develop our initial flavor offerings.
