Shyla’s Hideaway Temporary Change
Sooo…I am taking a leave of absence. As most of you know, I have had a reoccurring “issue” over this last year (I nicknamed it the “crotchety little terrorist”) and now finally it is going to be removed and (hopefully) never to return. I’m going to Boise for the surgery and remaining there for the wound care; worst case scenario (again hopefully) I’ll be gone about a month (Sept 24-Oct 16)…I am hoping to be home and back to cooking sooner.
What does this mean for Shyla’s Hideaway? I got Plan A, B & C and because of a very dear (stubborn and bossy) friend we are making Plan A happen: we will be OPEN with just a couple adjustments to the hours and grill menu. Yes, there will be a few items removed from the menu just to help things run smoother in the kitchen; my shoebox kitchen is a challenge even for me after 11 years.
Tues – Friday OPEN @ 5 but we will be CLOSED Saturday
Vicky Weiner (Y-Inn Cafe’s owner) who is the Ultimate Kitchen Rockstar is going to come cook in my place…I can’t come up with the words for what this means to me (but I do cry a lot), I am truly fortunate to call her my friend. Vicky already has so many responsibilities and family stuff going on, I am deeply thankful she can help me at all! So, that being said: Plan A can quickly become Plan B if Vicky needs to make any changes to her schedule (still OPEN but even less hours). Worst case…Plan C: we are CLOSED until I am able to return, none of us want Plan C.
I know this is inconvenient and I sincerely appreciate everyone for being supportive, kind, patient and understanding.
Thank you.
