Today was one of my favorite days at the shop. Nothing spectacular happened. I didn't have record sales. I just got a lot done and I got to cook a lot. I didn't make one wrap today which was awesome because they are labor intensive and a pain to make. I did make a potato leek vichyssoise which I ended up selling hot (and sold out of), a borscht which I almost sold out of, and a creamy broccoli and cheddar soup. I also made fresh banana bread, southern style beet tops, sauteed spinach, and a ton of salads. I really do love making salads because they always turn out so beautifully.
There's nothing like a snowy day to bring out the tea drinkers in Staunton. I ran the gamut with the varieties that I sold today. It really was a little bit of everything.
I also sold lots of wine and several of the new beers that I got in. I think people are liking that I have an IPA now.
Doug Day is in the middle of playing an awesome blues set and I have Addison Brady rock and roll to look forward to tomorrow. Plus, I start staying open until 10 next week so I have that going too. Square will be on Tuesday and Thursday is another bluegrass jam session.
Now that I have employees I actually have to train them, so I wrote a training manual and did a full inventory for the first time in a long time. All in all, it was a really productive day and I hope it bodes well for the upcoming months.
