A big thanks to any and everyone who have sent me messages and comments in the last few months/weeks/ or days. Some things we can't control, and we just have to let go, pray, and try to breathe. We are hiring for kitchen assistants (dishwashers $15/hr ages 16+ and very flexible) and am in the middle of opening a second business, The French Whisk, an elevated French Macaron shop downtown. We need macaron makers and retail associates, both are trainable with amazing pay. We will be opening a third unnamed business in conjunction with The French Whisk downtown and need retail associates for that as well. My staff is my family. Great pay, flexible, and I care. So please share!
