I published a "Thank You" letter in the Clarington This Week on Thursday January 14, and you can click here to read it.

The Clarington This Week dated Friday December 4 carried an article by Jennifer Stone about the unfortunate closing of Espresso Legato. I saw many of you on the streets of downtown Bowmanville that same day during the Moonlight Magic event, and many of you still have questions. I will try to answer them here briefly.

Yes, I am fine. No, I did not get a counter-offer, so I wouldn't even call it a "negotiation" - in fact, I was instructed to vacate by the end of the term. Yes, it was too late to find another suitable place.

It's a real pleasure to run into people in town and catch up on things. I appreciate your heartfelt comments and endless support.
