wanna' do something completely insane??? (january 2018, extended edition)

Okay, so there was one other "thing" we kinda sorta did in January.

Here are some hints ...

• It's something crazy
• In fact, I'm pretty sure it's something only insane people do
• It involves chopping and prepping hundreds of pounds of veggies
• And washing thousands of dishes
• It kinda feels like riding a roller-coaster
• It always keeps you on your toes (no actually, to do this you'd better have a quality pair of cross trainers)

We took a massive leap into the great unknown and started a restaurant (insert here all the crazy faces you can think of)!!!

In reality, working towards opening this restaurant started LONG before January 2018 (around 2 1/2 years before in fact), but in January ...

• the franchise was finally registered in the US (it's a Canadian company ... https://www.choppedleaf.ca)
• we had finally arranged all the financial bits
• the right location had finally become available (something that took months and months, as well as at least one false alarm)
• insert here, about a hundred or so additional tasks, conversations, and/more milestones that had finally been seen to

In January our lease negotiation was finalized and we got access to our space ...

And began the long-awaited "build-out"!!

Oh you sweet, happy people ... 

you don't even know what you've gotten yourself into (insert your best evil scientist laugh)

Hope you enjoyed the extended edition of January 2018. Don't worry, more insanity to follow!!
