if i could start a small business...

so, today is small business saturday.

you can read more about that here.

you know, i've always wanted to start a small business.

but there's always that nasty little problem of financing such dreams.

but if i could pick just one thing and run with it?

i would open a nook.

you know, a coffee shop type place. 

essential elements of my nook:

• mismatched furniture
• many, many books to peruse
• scholarly bearded people, laughing jovially
• signs that instruct people to laugh jovially or not at all
• little tables with handmade goods for sale from other dreamers
• yoga in the mornings, even if my body isn't very stretchy and i just have to watch
• is it creepy to watch other people do yoga?
• probably.
• local musicians performing at night
• my meggles could sell cupcakes, because she's good at those
• it would always smell like pumpkin spice candles, always always

yes, i even have a killer name picked out for my nook.

but i can't tell you, because what if you are an angry troll and you want to steal my idea?

harry potter taught me a lot about angry trolls.

what kind of small business would YOU open?
