    Happy Birthday

    Well, I started writing this blog way back on January 28th, 2005. AS you well know, it is now January 30th, 2007 and this blog is now officially past the two year mark. I cannot believe that it has been going this long.

    I was thinking about how I got started in all of this and a few people came to mind. Dr. Cornwall gave me the idea of writing a blog and -- as it all boils down -- was the one that introduced me to the blog world. You can either thank him or hate him for getting me involved (but I hope you thank him!). Anita Campbell and Dane Carlson kept me going with thoughts about business and how to live inside that professional world.

    I have met many great friends -- Siel, Chris, Tomas, Lloyd, Matt -- and many others.

    We have chronicled several lease attempts with Cafe Evoke, we have gone through good times and bad times (well, maybe not "bad" but certainly difficult), and I have learned a lot from it all. There is more to come!

    The catering business is beginning to take off and I am happy with our placement in this market. Are we "there" yet? No. This will still be a process that I hope to share with you starting this week.

    I hope everyone continues to comment on this blog and that the network I have started will continue to help me through the process of running Cafe Evoke Catering. My journey will be on the table. If you need any type of advice, take some. If you have some, leave some.

    Happy Birthday A Thought Over Coffee!

    Happy Birthday! Your site is older than mine is, but only by three or so months.

    Happy Blog Birthday, Jason! It has been so interesting to me to watch your blog develop. But more importantly I have liked watching your business develop.

    I like the idea of the catering business (lower overhead) and how you adjusted on the fly. That kind of "evolutionary" business planning is what it is all about in the real world for most of us.

    Here's to another year!

    Thanks everyone! It has been a great time (even though some days blogging does not sound fun). Thanks for all of your support!

    Lloyd, I'm honored with the dedication!
