Cosmo's Food for Thought

    Wow January is almost history & adios.  The cold, combined with Christmas bills, property taxes, this soft economy & dieting has made for a dive in business here @ the Cafe.  I can only hope February will get 'folks' back to a semi normal routine & make Cosmo's a must stop again.       Torrie,  is our new smiling face & she is a joy to work with.  The customers have really taken to her genuine friendliness & eagerness to please.  I am very grateful to have her join the team!        Ella Mae lost her brother Lynn this month.   He was why we took the quick trip to N.
