Short YouTube monologue (uploaded by Donald Burns) in which the speaker describes favorite café drinks—specifically an affogato (gelato with espresso) and an espresso macchiato (a small cappuccino)—and emphasizes a nonstop, busy life as an owner/operator and mother.
So what's your favorite thing on the menu? Oh, gosh. I really like an affogato when I can time out, which is just a lot of gelato with espresso on top. Alternatively, I really am always working, believe it or not. So, like, I asked, I just asked for, like, a shot of espresso, but espresso macchiato, which is just, you know, a mini cappuccino for those that don't know. Because even, like, a cup of cappuccino, I won't drink. I'll always set it down and Matt gets to drink it. You're always working. You are always on the go. Sunrise to sunset, like, literally nonstop. Whether it's my duties as an owner, operator, or as a mom, I'm just on.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
