Whats For Dinner News etc

First off, sorry its been so long since we last blogged. Its been a little crazy!

David has been alternating between the over-night shift 9pm to 5am, and the morning shift 5am-1pm. He rotates every 6 weeks, and it seems like just when we get into one schedule he switches to another. Its been nice though, because either way we have evenings off together and can take in some of the fun things in Missoula in the evening. We have made a habit of going to Salsa dance lessons every Tuesday night, and going to the park to listen to live music on Thursday nights. We are trying to hike and play tennis as much as possible, and enjoy the nice (aka HOT) weather.

Today we went to our local public water park and cooled down in their lazy river, water slides and pools. It was in the 90's for the 5th straight day and time to cool off a little!!

In my news I finished my time at the bakery on June 29th. It's nice to be done with that chapter, and be able to focus solely on What' s For Dinner. Our meal delivery service is up and running and the website has gotten over 1500 hits in the last month. More and more orders coming in every week, which is promising.

David and I have also secured a booth space at the farmers market, which is pretty fun. We always have samples so we draw quite the interesting bunch of folks. The booth is a great way to get the word out about WFD. People seem really excited about stumbling onto our booth and we have had a few orders already from the farmers market. It's fun getting to talk to people about what we are doing and have them get excited about our business.

Mom sent me the apron last week, and people at the market loved it!

Work is keeping us busy, but at least now we can both say that we are doing something we love.

We hope everyone is having a great summer and we can't wait to see as many Midwesterners as we can fit into our visit the first week of Aug.

Lots of Love
Abby and David
