Food Expo Starts

The Food Expo had a lovely start, we even had a night BBQ in the backyard. I don't know why Darrel and Sazo sunk so much money into the patio, we have until simMonday to move out of the complex and into a "traditional" single family home or elsewhere. We'll probably buy one of the homes being built on Fuji Court. Elda and her family will have to move...again. I feel sorry for them, but I'm sure they will survive.

Food Expo Preperation

The food expo starts tomorrow simday. Darrel is very excited about it, CupaJava isn't a designated site, but he hopes that the coupons and discounts given during the Food Expo will generate more business. Sazo's fiance, Sandy, moved in with us since the hood council reclaimed her flat. There have been some changes with flat ownership, thankfully we owned our before the changes were inacted. O, we'll be grandparents soon. Elda is due any simday now and Sazo just announced that he and Sandy are expecting a child. I wonder how that will affect thier wedding plans?

I will be a

a father. Sandy told me that she's pregnant. Pregnant! I'll be a father. Sandy moved in with me...before we found out she was pregnant. Maybe now we'll need the space of the downstairs apartment :\ too late, the hood has reclaimed it and now Sandy and I live with mom and dad and soon there will be another sim. A baby! I'm going to be a father!

Business Outlook

I've been training Sazo about connection skills and soon, this shop will be his. I must admit, he's done vast improvements, the bakery, the custom coffees for sale, and even the deal with Pennelson Publishing to sell books. I think I will need to focus on finding a baker to replace me...maybe we'll find a sim at the Food Expo contests. Yes...I will be one of the judges and we can find a baker and train them to bake!

What Next?

Business is going well, I'm planning on proposing to Sandy, the weather is warming and things are going well. But, what's next? We're going to start selling bags of flavored coffee and teas (the shipment arrived and it's delicious), also we pre-ordered the autobiographies from Pennelson Publishing, dad's busy with baking and we're budgeting for hiring a baker as he's getting older and will want to retire soon. We need to do some renovations to the building, make it a better flow for customers.

Business is Booming

I am glad we decided to add the bakery to CupaJava. It has been a hit. Residents love the new cakes and pastries. Sazo and I are going to add a selection of coffees and teas in addition to the books and magazines. I must contact Pennelson Publishing to get the latest copies of thier books. I hear the autobiographies of Josie Harlow and Carla Niven are going to be released soon.
