Cosmo's Food for Thought

    Well it's almost time for the 'Fair'.  This is the 12 days that brings fear to all of us other businesses that are not @ the Fair.  It can be a very slow time for food sales, etc. Than the hammer falls again because shopping for school cloths & supplies also begins in earnest!  We have to be realistic as money can only go so far when it's being pulled in so many directions.  Hopefully though we will hold our own & actually gain a little from last year.     We do have a catered event coming up in mid September for the Army.  Lunch bags for 50 on Saturday & a hot lunch for 50 on Sunday.  Very thankful for the opportunity to serve those who serve.  On October 5 we are catering a bagged lunch for between 80 - 100 for a Mennonite conference.     As always thanks for allowing me to share & for all your prayers & support.....

Well another week is complete @ the Cafe.....We had a pretty good day Friday so maybe we are through these last days of summer 'melt down'......We are down to me & Julie, so at least the payroll is reduced & that may be the boost needed to turn a profit.......The main problem I see is our location..... Being inside & not having a visible store front it is making it very difficult for 'folks' driving by to see us....The  outside of the building is receiving a face lift & maybe that will help to brighten up the view.....The love I have for this business has not wavered, but I would be less than honest if I did not say I am also very discouraged @ times.....I still will do all I can to provide good food @ reasonable prices......I am constantly trying to come up with new ideas for menu & marketing....... It's not over until the fat lady sings" or should I say "the fat man".....Still waiting on hearing from the Air Base for an upcomin...
