weekend work...

There is bound to be chaos when a team is given 2 days to open a cafe!

Our team got the keys to an empty facility on Friday, and after two days of unpacking boxes - LOTS OF BOXES, receiving produce orders, prepping, cooking, making and hanging signs and artwork, many trips to random stores... the cafe was open for business by 7:30am yesterday morning... lots of work, lots of laugh, a few tears and much wine! thank goodness we had a fun crew - but i am so happy to be home!

to fill the empty space and deter from the empty cash register station, we set up a mock farmers market.

to fill up this random little alcove, we created a "refresh" station with complimentary "spa" water.

the salad bar - even with the hideous yellow crocks that we had to use (ours were back ordered)... it turned out ok.

"classics" station... yum
