Grand Opening: Do you see what I see?

   When you walk in, you will see bare walls.  You will see empty space.  You will see gravel in the "yard" out front.  You will not be impressed.  Or maybe you will?  Winnie Mae's is an empty vessel and though many have tried to press me into defining it, into labeling what it needs to be.  I have not nor do I really want to.  What do you really see though?
   I am fascinated by the people who implore me to present a finished product.  They ask me to quantify and define and it is not that I cannot, I just do not want to.  It is not even my job. We are surrounded with entities that present their wares to us and, without choice, say, "This is what we have to offer.  Take it or leave it."  Winnie Mae's is not like that at all.  Making it what is to become is your job.
   Winnie Mae's is named for my mother.  Moreover it is named for what she stands for.  I will always have a home as long as she can help it and the freedom to do what I want there.  Everyone who is involved in this thing of ours will always have a home as long as I can help it.  I want to be the man my mother raised me to be. I can handle the food part.  The rest is up to you!
   Maybe you see bare walls.  I see a surface that needs to be covered.  Maybe you see an empty space.   I see a space that needs to be filled.  You see an empty yard, I see the greatest garden one could make.  So, the question is; Do you see what I see?
