APERTO

Aperto……open! That’s what happened just last Sunday when my dream came true! I opened my coffee shop, Via Vadi Caffe’, right here in South Seattle. It was just the most amazing day, having my family and my friends all around as the doors opened and people poured in throughout the day. Everyone was happy and laughing and enjoying the caffe’.

The cash register started to ring soon after the doors opened. Here’s a picture of the first sale at the caffe’. I want to remember it! Thanks to several friends lots of pictures were taken. I had no time to handle a camera!

Mom baked wonderful Italian pastries and my brother went to the bakery to pick up our order. It seems they tried to deliver it but someone (me) forgot to leave the gate unlocked. Hey, there was a lot on my mind the night before. Thanks Otto! Now the case is full of goodies, muffins, cookies, scones and the like. Some days I’ll have homemade Tiramisu and Cannoli, you’ll have to stop in for a taste.

The day went by fast, but with so much fun. The blog is new and I am feeling my way around it, sort of like the caffe’. I’ll get it though and you’ll have lots to keep up with here at Via Vadi.

Ciao
