Yes It’s True.

I am looking for a buyer for Evelyn’s.  To make a long story short, I’m burned out…for many reasons, and I need to move on and focus on other parts of my life.  If you’re interested in buying the business, let me know — everything in the cafe (with the exception of my personal junk) comes with the business, so you’re ready to go…and if you’re really nice, I’ll show you how to make the chicken salad.  All reasonable offers considered…and the price is probably a lot lower than you think.

Stop by if you’re interested.

I’m planning on living here still, so I’ll be around the neighborhood.   :)

The business will probably remain open until the end of the month — I’d love to have the new person open in October so the neighborhood doesn’t have to deal with yet another closed business.

    Really sorry to hear this. As a person who has enjoyed your cafe, bought a bunch of coffees from you and supported your fundraiser, I’m pretty disappointed. But, good luck to you.

    Thank you for your support — I really appreciate it. I wish I could stay open — unfortunately, it’s just not possible…the money just isn’t there, sad to say.

    So sorry to hear that! Where are we going to hang out?

    My living room!

    Maybe Larry56 has some outstanding business advice that would help you stay open?

    Seriously, though, this sucks. I will miss Evelyn’s a lot.

    Yes, it’s true…Larry56 is apparently a business genius.

    I am also looking for an investor, keep in mind. Talked to a guy today who might have some leads — so we’ll see what happens. But I make no promises, and unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of time left. But miracles do happen from time to time…

    Oh no… so sad to hear, Carol. *sniff*

    Yeah, it’s sad but it could end up being exciting, too. I’m trying to stay optimistic, which is totally against every fiber of my being. :)

    I think you are an open minded person with a positive attitude since everytime things go wrong you are ready to engage yourself in new business opportunities. As for myself, things are not going the way I would hope and I’m a little scared about the future…

    Davide, I am trying so hard to stay positive…we’ll see what the future holds.

    And as for you, you’re young, creative, and smart — the future holds great things for you, amico mio.

    I go out of town for a week and look what happens. I think we need some drinks immediately.

    Shit, I’ve been on a two-week bender thus far.

    Last day will be the 29th of this month…
