So far I have spent the entire weekend reworking budgets and financing. Yes it is about as exciting as it sounds especially when you have about 3000 entries to rework.
I find myself now in the same position as every other owner I have ever worked for and that's where to cut costs but keep my quality standards at their high level. I have had problems being able to keep my employee the 5 days a week at the school when we are only pulling in about $1000 a week. Things are going well there but with now 4 co-op students I think to keep them busy even only for the two hours that they are there is to start making our own breads and bagels. Should cut a bit of cost and at least I get to work on my doughs and they get to learn a new skill.
The photos done by Nichala Cutts are almost finished and she has proven to be a very talented young photographer. Those photos will soon be up and a profile of Nichala will be available on the web page.
Artisanal Palate will be doing demos at Pusateri's for Woodland Imports October 14-18th, swing on by Avenue rd in Toronto. It is the best gourmet store in Canada and a great spot to come sample and see some good food being made. Currently working on a recipe section for the site and for stores I will keep you in touch with that and the many other projects on the go right now.
Until then keep the stomach and the glass full,
