MEET MY GIRLS (JOURNEY #4)

I started Pranzo, a lunch catering business 12 years ago. Starting a business gave me something to do while my youngest child, Blaine was at school. I can do lunch! My father had a lunch business that we all worked in. I love lunch, no weekend, nights, or holidays, & some extra income for all those singing lessons.

Heidi my eldest daughter, wanted to try her hand at marketing. OK, let's see what she could do. Before I knew it, I had a commercial kitchen preparing and delivering 300 lunches a week. Everyone Heidi met became a client. They were either in the post production or pharmaceutical industries. Before I knew it, we had to turn down business. She even managed to get her brother, Tony a job with a post production company. How perfect was that, he was a graphic designer!

Heidi was taking over the business and I prepared menus and did the billing. I developed some computer skills, worked from home, continued with my school and church charities, played some tennis, lunched with the ladies, etc.

Blaine, my youngest was in high school. She made the desserts after school, in between singing lessons, and we had a wonderful family business.

Life was great!
