Bit of a quieter weekend this week with the main focus being the coffee shop!

I’m also excited to announce my brand new venture 🫶 I know what you’re gonna say.. I thought you were scaling back.. 😂

Well I’m scaling back on the catering business so that I can make room for something else ❤️

I’m delighted to announce my own brand new clothing brand. This is something so close to my heart ❤️

6 months ago I wanted to launch this but I couldn’t think of a name and then it came to me a couple of weeks ago..

2 months ago we lost my Granny she would sign all the cards to me and Amy and say Love From Gran

That’s what I have called

LOVE FR♡M CLOTHING CO

This means so much to me, it gives me something to work on behind the scenes and gives me a career that I can do anywhere in the world

It’s something other people can relate to also ❤️

It’s launching mid-end of July! If you could give my instagram page a wee follow it would mean the world ❤️

Much love Roo

So we have been reflecting on the past weekend… between Friday, Saturday & Sunday we worked almost 50 hours

This was between all the events we had on as well as the usual shifts I do in the coffee shop

Everyday that passes now I feel the stress as well as the physical and mental toll this puts on my body. I may only have turned 31 a few weeks ago but when I have worked pretty much every day of every year since I was 14 in the hospitality industry that’s a lot. Obviously we get a couple of holidays a year but for years we never.. we either couldn’t afford to or work took over!

There was a lot of seasonal jobs I worked in my early 20’s that I would work for 6-7 months straight without a day off. Then do another jobs for the winter months and start all over again. I become self employed almost 7 years ago now and even if we aren’t in the coffee shop working then I’m sat at home writing menus, doing paperwork, answering messages & emails etc etc and if I’m not at home doing this then I’m out getting supplies

What I’m trying to say is as time has gone on my mindset has shifted.. I want to spend more time with my family & friends, with Amy & with our furbabies.. people told me years ago that I should have a better work life balance but I never listened

Going forward we will be taking a maximum of 3 buffet events per day. We will also no longer be offering breakfast boxes or charcuterie boxes and afternoon tea boxes will be limited but will still do our special event boxes (Christmas, Mother’s Day etc)

This doesn’t include private dinner parties as we can only do 1 of these per day anyways and would still very much like more. We will also then be starting the next football hospitality season in August

We don’t have a massive team behind us. We have the staff in the coffee shop & then it’s just me and Amy that work in taste of home

So going forward what I’m trying to say is we will still be offering event catering, private dinner parties & afternoon tea boxes but will be limiting the amount we take on. Everything else will be put on pause so we can have a breather and enjoy life abit more before it passes us by!

Thank you for understanding ❤️
