Making a new life is a far greater task, and it seems that Asuncion has everything needed for this new family to be happy and have a fine life. Good luck to them!

I'm looking forward to being a guest chef.

I'll bring my sashimi knife.

True so sorry.... but starting a new life with only a "bistro stand" in Ascuncion makes it double tough. Good luck Kids

sirenita plans to finish her degree...life threw her a curve ball and so she's just on time out at the moment and the Bistro is a way for them to support themselves...I'm glad to have her home and certain she will follow the right path to happiness.

Good to hear Shari!

Norte, you are so right!

Nan & D, good question... Shari/ Sirenita: Do you sell beer (anything other than Corona, I hope... ie. Pacifico, XX, Tecate)?

Do you think there is enough people in town to support this?
Am I the only one to see that this is a wood shack
and not a proper bistro?
Sanitary conditions?
Should not this boy go north and get a real chef job?
He does look qualified.
What are you thinking?
Guide these children down the correct path.
The several visitors you have each year will not support them.
Do not most businesses go broke in a year?

People must live in highly impacted urban cities?
Workers must be employed by global corporations?
Independent workers are an insult to the empire?
Food must be burned, boiled or microwaved?
Kat54 is a pathetic corporate shill of the imperialists?

KAT54

How do I become like you? I really want to learn how to be understanding and supportive of young people who are setting out on their lives. I really want to learn how to support self sufficiency, creativity and entrepreneurial endeavors. Can you tell me how I can be a better parent? I appreciate your stunning, just stunning wisdom. In fact I am jaw dropped by it.

Mood: Savoring life while saving the world!

[*] posted on 8-1-2010 at 09:14 AM


Well...I feel that since norte was so polite with his question, it deserves an answer from me...

This is not a complete change of plans, I am not one to give up that easy and I will complete my degree. It is, how ever, a slight delay and a brand new set of doors that lay waiting to be opened.

Sometimes life changes in such drastic ways that all we can do is take what ever comes our way with gratitude and an open heart and mind, because even our mistakes and bad moments make us grow as people.

That said, I really hope to see everyone here at one time or another and share this new part of our lives with you all, not only the bistro but also the soon to come bundle of joy.

Thanks for all the great comments and good wishes, as I've said before a little prayer and good vibes go a long way. ;)

As for the beer issue, we do not have an alcohol permit yet, sooooo....you won't be able to buy beer at the tidepool. But you are welcome to bring your cerveza while enjoying a bite to eat!!

And Kat...my dearest kat...

"Do you think there is enough people in town to support this?"
Yes.

"Am I the only one to see that this is a wood shack
and not a proper bistro?"
Definition of Bistro:
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural bistros
Etymology: French
Date: 1921
1 : a small or unpretentious restaurant
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bistro

Agree to disagree :)


"Sanitary conditions?"
Our sanitary conditions are just fine, both Adrian and I work hard to keep the cooking and eating environment clean, and to be honest, I've seen much worse sanitary conditions in well established restaurants.

"Should not this boy go north and get a real chef job? "
He does look qualified. That was an option, but is it really worth it to make a few extra pesos and to be far away from his family? We are both excited and in my opinion (and it seems as though in many other peoples mind as well), we are capable of making this work, as Bajafam said "a little heart goes a long way"...and it's not our fault that you can not see that.

"What are you thinking?"
We are thinking of our future, we already know it's not going to be a piece of cake, but then what in this life that is worth the time of day is? We would not be doing this if we didn't think it would work. All we ask is to be given the benefit of the doubt, who knows what could happen down the road, after all T.I.M. right??

"Guide these children down the correct path. "
Each one of us has a very personal definition of the "correct path", but in reality, there is no one and only path that everyone must take, our paths are simply trails that we make for ourselves as life goes on and it's our personal decision which one we take.

"The several visitors you have each year will not support them.
Do not most businesses go broke in a year? "
That is something that remains to be seen, and even if this option does not work, at least no one would be able to say we did not do our best and tried...after all that's all that can be asked of anyone.

Live life as well as you can,
don\'t regret the things that once made you smile,
learn from your mistakes,
and thank God for every second he gives you upon this earth.

YUP..

good luck. The road you have chosen is a hard one.

One lesson here. Put your life on display (especially the internet) and expect some scrutiny.

Again. Good Luck
