OPEN A SWEETS AND CATERING SERVICES!!!!
Actually my mother started the business back in 2006, she opened up a restaurant which little did we know have actually been going great, due to our then lack of interest in the field (I'm still not quite charmed by it, it's just that...I find cooking my peaceful moment, it's like I don't want to ruin it by the hustle and bustle of a real life restaurant and much more to be stuck in it...I mean I want to be able to travel and move about, not for the rest of my life of course but to at least have the option to, whenever I can and/or want to and that's what catering does most of the time, well I know it'll only be out and about UAE or within just Ras Al Khaima, that's where it's going to be. It's sort of an extension of Al Qanaa Restaurant - My mom's, we've all decided to resign from our very unfulfilling office jobs, where there is no growth, advancement and experience gained with the years we've stayed in them. I'll be out of Graphya by January and my cousins on February and March consecutively.
I'm just so excited about it, I've been draining my brain cells in designing the uniform and putting a menu together, and using my contacts for free of charge print out of business cards and flyers hahaha. In business it's always about who you know and not what you know. Since my mother already has clients and our family's like all over the UAE, I'm hoping it wouldn't be so hard to enter the market, we begin after Eid, starting with a little capital from each of us while it's under my mother's license and shop, since it's a catering thingy we're not in much need of a solid brick and stone just yet until we're officially jobless and able to completely be focused in it. It'll be sort of like a part time job now and do what we can with our weekends, we'll do the costing and all the other little details. My mom's sister will do all the cooking - she's magnificent, she made my cousin's wedding cake and I'm hoping she'll make mine too, one day.
We have a daily or nightly...(more like midnightly) meeting about our tasks and updates and since we're in different emirates we all have to communicate through the AWEEESOMEEE app on our s3s (it was like a plague that happened to us, swapped off our iphones to galaxy s3 in a flash every single member of our family are holding one hahaha, its kind of our thing. no one gets left behind even in the gadgets department) anyway it's called whatsapp. HAHAHA.
We'll showcase our food and creativity on Eid in our family gathering, bazillion mouths to feed and since I'm the one who knows what my smurfs will eat, I will be the errand lady - gladly, for this psychos including myself.
Wish us luck! we'll need every bit of it!
xoxo!
carpe diem.
PS. I'm still going to Brasil, and already working on my itinerary! multi tasker slash dreamer that's me.
More updates soon.
Big pony boy kiss and Eid Mubarak lovelies!
