Okay so its Febuary ......

Wow where did the time go, seems like the year is well underway. Ive got a great new job @ 44th Ward "the best little grilled cheese place" come in and say hi some time. Ive started to put together the chapters for my new book "My life in America"  its going to be a cook book and tell all I guess about the people and places ive worked and been over the Decade ive been living in the U.S. I'm excited :) and im going to rework my "Simply Australian" cook book. Hopefully I can Get them finished by July and then can work on the photography. LOL ive been workin on the first book for several years now. I just can't let it go till its just right.... if one is not hard enough ive gota go and start another now i know i must be crazy :)

It's been a rough start to the new year but im so happy at the new resturant and we just had an amazimg night last night we had 90 on the books plus all the walk-ins and from all reports everybody was happy. I do hope your having a good year so far, Oh and Legal action has been filed against OLE' OLE' so that's good thing, i just keep hearing from people all the horror stories of how the owner ripped off her staff. It really is discusting that some one like that is allowed to operate a business AVOID working for this woman GINA PAVONE and never suport OLE OLE she doesnt pay her staff.

Well its time to get ready for work so hope to get things back on track and will be posting more as i start my book projects and things develop at the resturant.

P.S. Don't Forget MY BIRTHDAY FEBUARY 26th :)

Peace Out

JA
