One More before Thanksgiving Break!!!

What a turn out!! So blessed to have lots of family and friends who DO NOT want to cook on the weekend.. haha The one thing I love most about my business.. is the customers... OMG, if I had a restaurant.. they'd never leave.. haha I love love love the samoan spirit of love that they bring when they come into my home!! Words cannot express the pain in my stomach from the laughter during our business hours.. I forget everything just hearing my husband entertain the customers.. hahaha too funny...

I am looking forward to this weeks entertainment.. to see who says what and why too!! hahaha anyways.. Despite how hard it is to start a business, the joy our customers bring in priceless...

Much Alofa'agas to all our Aigas...

Football season!!

I have been so busy and overwhelmed with everything going on this past summer. I know I've had alot of phone calls about when I'll be opening up again.. and I will in 2 weeks. It's just been hectic and I've been too busy with football season and taking care of my mother.

Just an update, my family and I have been involved in caterings and cooking for the Orem High School booster club.. and doing the booth for the Park's Sportsman Football League.. and so much more that it has been hard to try and do my plates for the week. But I promise I'll start again in 2 weeks.. lol

But I appreciate the comments, the love and support from my family and my sister Myrna too. She has been tremendous in helping me find different venues to help boost my business.. it's not like I sit at home and watch soaps all day haha But I'm looking forward to whatever she brings me.. haha well, maybe not really.. But I'm excited to start cooking again other than BBQ hahaha

STAY TUNED.. Samoan Plates are in 2 weeks.. yay!

Much alofa'agas to you all..

I'm baaaack!!!

I'm back... well not really.. haha but I was contemplating weather to open or not.. since Mother's Day is this week.. but I didn't rest at all the last 3 weeks.. just cooking, catering, cooking and more cooking.

Last week, my daughter graduated with an Associates at UVU and we had a little dinner for her afterwards. It was an eventful day filled with love and laughter and mostly tears of joy. This was one day I didn't mind cooking for... at all. I am blessed to have such wonderful family and friends who support us no matter what. Now, it's back to business and I am looking forward to meeting different ppl..

We will be changing the day to Friday mainly because I want to attend the Mother's Day Activity for our ward which starts promptly at 8am.. I hope you all have a wonderful week.. and Fathers.. spoil your mothers for they deserve to be treated like a queen...

Much Alofaagas,

Norma

My 3 week BREAK!!!

What a week! What was I thinking trying to BBQ and make food all at the same time.. I guess we just learn from experience... I'm grateful to Koa and Molia Tilo that came over to help me so I can prep the rest of my stuff...

Now that I have 3 weeks to plan.. I'm thinking of changing my day to Sat.. since my kids are off from school and my husband is home from work.. but we'll see how that goes. I really do like the idea of having everyone here tho.. but will see if it all works out or not..

For the next week, we have our Scouts Fundraiser.. BBQ plates sale, car wash, bake sale.. and yard sale.. the week after that is my sister Myrna's Talofa Teines Open house.. and after that.. oi aue!! My daughter's graduation from UVU.. so I'll still be cooking.. eh, I'm already tired thinking about it..

I will need this next 3 weeks to come up with a better plan to boost my business and improve on a few things... I'll keep everyone updated!

Fa'afetai Lava.. Much Alofa'agas,

Norma
