All about bein' healthy

My plan reviewer and inspector from the County Health Department called yesterday. She had a few questions about the layout of the cafe because the plans I submitted don't match the ones submitted last year by the current owner. But other than a comment about "well, someone's plans are wrong", she didn't say anything more about the plans. She then asked a few questions about the menu. I had written down that I plan on serving sandwiches and soups and she wanted to know what I was going to put on the sandwiches in the way of veggies and how the soup was going to be made. There isn't a food prep sink so I can't actually make soup so I told her that I'd be using pre-washed veggies like lettuce and re-constituting soup but not re-heating it. All soup at the end of the day will be taken home or thrown away.

She said she'd approve my plans as submitted and will be writing her letter to me by the end of the week. I think that what she said anyway. She will do her inspection the week before or on the same day I "open" and after the inspection passes, I go down and pay for the permit. And then I'm for real.

Well, not exactly - gotta get a business license, insurance, telephone, state master business license number, WIFI, and some other things.

Right now, I'm watching TiVo.
