I'm not one to brag, but...

...my middle Grandlittle is a genius.

A seriously genius, I tell ya.

You know how there's all kind of trendy, exclusive restaurants now that serve things like only grilled cheese or only things with chocolate in them?

Hey.

Pay attention.

I see you trying to close my blog so you can google "restaurants serving only chocolate".

Geez.

Rude.

Anyway.

As I was saying...

My middle Grandlittle is absolutely insisting I have a restaurant serving...

TA! DA!

Toast.



Toast, toast and only toast.

Apparently, I make the best toast in the world.

Apparently, she thinks not only would it be a big hit in a restaurant, but we could also make a bunch of toast every morning and sell it door to door!

I gently suggested that the menu might be a bit limiting to customers.

"Grandma!" she exclaimed.

(obviously disgusted by my lack of business accumen)

"We can serve all KINDS of toast.  Cinnamon sugar toast!  Peanut butter toast!  Plain toast!  Toast with jelly!"

Gosh.

I feel kind of embarrassed to be so short-sided.

YessirreeBob.

Now that I realize all the possibilities...

My new restaurant is going to be the toast of the town!

  1. Add gingerale to your toast menu and every sick person in the country will flock there! You know, "I've had the flu so I'm off to Grandmas Toast Place." "Never mind, she'll bring it to me!". ~ Maureen

  14. The Great Dane gets packages of chocolate from Denmark - they are specially made paper-think slices made especially for putting on hot toast. I am willing to take on the task of sole importer of said chocolate for Toast Is Us.

  22. Toast is such a flexible base and, unlike pizza, it can go savoury or sweet. That's got to be a hit!
