Are we there yet?

Is September 1st here yet or what!!!?!?!?! I just want to get started on construction want things to move along. The fundraiser that "Big Brother" attend was huge! Tons of people and tons of prizes. Thanks to all who went out and showed support for this beautiful young girl! The four gallons of chili that he took with him to donate was gone in just about one hour! That is amazing! Love to hear when people are enjoying the food...

I think that we will be taking a break from cooking once construction begins. We are so excited to create a great place for people to come in, relax, and enjoy a great meal. The environment will be very warm and friendly...almost like being at home except you won't have to cook and still you get a homemade meal! Can't beat that at all!

"The Soup King" himself is eager for us to get started so I am out of his hair....I am just kind of floating around right now, yes driving him crazy. "Drama" wants to get to work too. She likes to run a tight ship so we can't wait to set her up with her front end responsibilities!

All are prepping for the beginning of the school year so be safe and shop well for all those school supplies......Will let you know when we start banging walls out!! Lol....

September 1st.....Amen...I say Amen!!!

Finally, September 1st is our new date for taking possession of our site. We are banking on 4, max 6 weeks for construction. Yes..we are gutting both stores! One is going all the way down to the block...it is pretty bad in there! We will have pictures to show our now and then scenario! So exciting. We met with the engineers on Saturday so the plans should be done shortly, permits will be applied for and then we can move on. "Big Brother" and I are going for our test on the 26th....we are finally in a groove. Let's hope it stays that way!

We are making Chili for a fundraiser this weekend. The fundraiser is for a co-worker's daughter of "Big Brother". She is a 26 year old woman who was diagnosed with Leukemia, the worst stage possible. The Beef and Beer will be held at St. Dominic's in Northeast Philadelphia on Frankford Avenue. Tickets are $25.00 each and it is on August 21st from 7pm to 11pm. This includes all the beer you can drink and of course yummy food. The proceeds are going to help pay for her medical bills. Please do what you can...maybe we will see you there!

We always try to help where and when we can! That is very important to us......We are eager to give back to our community!!! We are really excited to introduce everyone to our great taste!! I have published our website finally. Yes it is still under construction but at least it is out there for people to check out. Building a website on your when you have zero experience is a bit trying!!! So when you view it just remember that it is a working progress! Here is the address for you to check it out! www.wix.com/soupking1/bagelocity--soup-king

Well...I will let you know how things are moving along in a few days! Hope to see some of you on Saturday!
