  Excerpt

Timothy Mathis stood back and looked up at the sign on the side of the building. It had taken a lot of hard work, but Creole Temptations was ready for business. His family had told him that opening a restaurant that specialized in southern cooking would be hard enough, but in Chicago, they were sure it would not prosper. Now he just needed to prove them wrong.

It wasn’t that he felt the need to rub anything in his parents’ faces. They loved him and wanted the best for him. Timothy needed to do this for himself.

Walking into the building, he glanced around the dining room. The setting was comfortable. A person didn’t need to be rich to enjoy the cuisine. Suit and tie were optional here. The tables were created from rough oak, giving it the woodsy look. Oil lamps graced the tops.

For all his waiting, Creole Temptations was his dreams come true. After years in cooking school, he was anxious to put out that first plate.

“Timothy?”

He turned and smiled at his sister and bookkeeper Rona.

“Yea?”

“All is ready and we can open the doors tomorrow morning.” Rona had a sparkle in her eye and he knew she enjoyed this as much as he did.

“Excellent.”

“Excellent? Is that all you have to say after all your belly aching these last few months?”

“Was I that bad?” He tried to grin, knowing just how bad he had been. It was all the excitement of finally opening his own place.

“You know you were. Do you have any idea just how many people I had to interview for job placement?”

“No, but I bet you’re going to tell me over and over again.”

“You got that right.” Rona bumped her hip with his. “Now, come on. You can make it up to me by cooking something spectacular.”

He laughed as she pulled him through the double doors into the kitchen area. Timothy didn’t mind at all. This was what he loved the most.
