With the government giving us the go ahead to open restaurants back up, I’m extremely excited to say we will be announcing the official grand opening for @chakalakacanada very soon. When I found out about the news today, I almost crashed because of how excited I am and I couldn’t control the joy in me. It’s been a long time coming, but the wait is almost over. Stay tuned, my friends.

Woke up to this. I shovelled snow when I got home around 11pm last night and I still woke up to this #snowday

As we are entering into our second week of lockdown, I want to continue to teach myself to find things to be grateful for. Instead of dwelling on the negative, we should be appreciating the positive. Here are a few things I am grateful for today. Today, I am honoured to be nominated by the @zimachievers Awards for USA/Canada Male Entrepreneur of the Year. My sister @ropatsitsi also got nominated for 2 awards. ... Female Personality of The Year & Business of The Year. Ropa has been through thick and thin this year, but she never gave up. It’s beautiful to know that other people around the world, also acknowledge that. I am grateful for my big sister @ruetasha for always having our back. She always appears to be the most quiet one, but she’s not. She’s the rock of our family. For us to be where we are today, Natasha has almost everything to do with it and she does it out of love. I am also grateful for my Mother @rosemary.trish for all the sacrifices that she has made for us to be here today. My father has been gone for over 20 years which has made my mother be a father figure for us, too. I want to challenge my friends to continue to find things to be grateful for. Show each-other love and always check on your friends and family. Have a happy holiday.
