Happy New Year to All! The journey continues..... Thanks for supporting the Cafe....
2 1/2 Years Gone By...But A New Year & New Beginning.....
Well as we move into this new year we can all be thankful that it is a 'new beginning'! A fresh start & with just a quick passing glance at the past year before we move forward. It's okay to stop & review as long as we learn & continue to grow. My prayer is that I become even more appreciative of all that God has provided. He is the God of 'Grace' & 'Mercy'. No preaching, just stating my love for Jesus who gave us all a door to go through for a place in eternity. After all this earthly life is so fleeting. So we all need to beware where we store our treasures. The Cafe is now 2.5 years old! The joy & love of working the Cafe has not faded & while at times I do falter, it is only for a slight recharge & attitude adjustment. I am confident that this is the year we begin the turn around to stability & profitability. I feel like I have 'paid my dues' ...
Baby It's Cold Out Side but It Will Be Toasty Warm in Heaven.....
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. Carolina during our break here @ the Cafe in December. We are so thankful that we had a chance to visit with him for a few days. EM & Lynn had many meaningful hours together that she can now always recall when the sadness & grief creeps in every so often. Lynn was EM's m...
Let Someone Know You Care......
A big thank you to the 27 Th Brigade @ Hancock Field for the huge order of 120 lunch boxes & 60 dinner plates this past weekend! That was so cool that they thought enough of us here @ the Cafe to allow us the opportunity to prepare their food. Happy Valentines Day to all, as Friday is the day. Since it is all about the Love, I would like to send some out to all our friends & customers. As always thank you for your support & prayers, Ella Mae & I will always be grateful.
It Looks Like It's Gonna Be "In Like A Lion Out Like A Lamb"
Wow what a Winter! Let's hope that we will turn the corner soon. March can sometimes provide us with 3 seasons and you all know what 2 we'd prefer. The Cafe is still standing, although I sometimes am having trouble doing that myself... This almost hitting 65 is starting to set in. Hey the bright side is I can get Medicare! It would be nice to get checked up again as it has been awhile for sure. I Still am thankful though for all that I have, including the ability to still get up & run this Cafe, aches & pains or not. Well Happy Spring & St Patrick's Day to all. Let's all pray for a warm Spring & a renewal of a warm Heart. I know that I need God's grace everyday & am reminded that each day is also a new beginning! Thanks to those of you who have supported the Cafe in both your actions & prayers. Also I must send out a special prayer for Michael, as he begins his next step in his journey. Ella...
Now It's 'Balamont's Cafe & Catering'!
Philippians 3:12-14 Pressing Toward the Goal “Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” __________________________________________________________________________________ Well a new journey begins on Thursday May 1! The Cafe has a new owner, Matt Balamont! Matt is a certified chef who I believe will take this place to the next level. It's no secret to anyone who follows this blog or is a regular visitor of the Cafe that my spinal stenosis has left me not standing so upright @ times. While I am seeking help it is somet...
