LOL, thanks for listening to my rants and your comments!
----------------------
I woke up feeling so good and totally recharged from the past couple of months. Wow, November and December was nonstop and pretty stressful!
So much has happened this past year.

Now it’s January 2nd and here we go!

It’s going to be a great month, I can feel it. Grezzo will be open the end of January, Celebrity Fit club will be airing in March and my show will be done probably around the same time.

My chef is starting today. We have a meeting with him at 10 o’clock to give him the plan for the next few weeks before we open. Not sure what that plan is but Dennis keeps telling me to let him do some of the stuff that I keep saying, ‘No, I’ll do that’ lol!

I’ve already picked out equipment for the kitchen, painted the dining room, ordered furniture and hired some people, things that were supposed to be his job…. Oh well, maybe he’ll just have to be here for a few weeks being my personal chef and making me food.

He’s making some food for the next couple of days so I can take picture for the web site and some other press stuff. Ill posts some pictures here in the next few days. I have my copper top tables in the car to bring into Boston today. 10 of them are done and they look amazing!

Alright, I can’t believe I have to go outside to work out right now. Its 5:30am and about 10 degrees here but I need to make it into the barn. I’m not cut out for this kind of weather. I figured I’d be gone for the month of January and February but now that I decided to open a restaurant in the middle of winter…..

    OMG! I can't even believe a raw resteraunt is going to be this close! I'm so excited. I still say that if you are ever looking for a Grezzo 2 that you should check out Jamaica Plain. Such a socially conscious neighborhood here. Everyone who visits says that it doesn't even feel like a part of the city. Your "style" would be so welcomed here! And we're so close to the colleges where all the "kids" are so looking for the next something new and different place to frequent.

    There goes our field trip to Grezzo's during the certification course. It sounds exciting. I can't wait to see the pics and go to the restaurant even though that will have to be during the summer. Having a personal chef for a few weeks can't be that bad. Good luck!
