Hey there, they call me Pepe and I'm currently on ODSP in Doug Ford's Ontario. To be housed we need to have a business or a job. Some doctor and some shrinks told me I'd never go back to my trade because... This is my gentle nudge. My quiet smile. They don't know me. This is where all the hyperfocus that have kept me active, aware and waiting get to see the end game. The rent on my little Take out is the same that I paid for the Rowan Moon Bistro ( still on FB. Check check it ) a decade ago. Downtown and in a city 11 times larger than my last show. A Take Out that will employ my boys as well. Simple. Healthy. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and with a smoker for meatier things, eventually. Fresh food at fresh prices! Locally sourced for the local locals. Rowan's Roost. I can already see Roasted yam, fennel, apple, cranberry and almond curry again. The portobello mushroom burger that was the first in Grey County. February 2007 ( check check it ), This town is saturated with corporate garbage so I I'll bring the fresh. Raise the banners. And return to what I do best. Taking never ending left hooks in a kitchen based environment. Where everything tastes, smells and looks like excitement. Rowan's Roost.

Inclusivity and engagement build strong communities. Kindness and encouragement build strong citizens. Healthy food fuels them all.

Shrinks: Why you got that face tat?

Me: Room full of punks told me I couldn't.

Maybe this their long con?

I am ready willing capable and differently abled. Perfect for the space and the job. I have two weeks. To show them I can open up in the space and I need help. If not here and now, where? And if not for all the right reasons, why? This how the differently abled survive now. I will build the brand again because job holding ain't our thing. Please help.
