I'd rather eat with the gypsies than with the Upper Krust any day.

I'm a Welsh rabbit sort of girl. My dream (honest) is to have a small, cozy little cottage of a diner where I serve really excellent campfire foods. The menu will be small but everything will be made out of the very best plebian ingredients. Meatloaf, chili, mac and cheese, biscuits/gravy, pot roast, corn muffins and homemade breads, etc. A coffee cup kind of place where I get to make everything myself. I'd LOVE to do this.

And I'd like to have a tarot reader on hand for the occasional upset customer. Would be soooo cool. Sort of like the place in the book Dogs and Goddesses. Only with a bigger menu (they only did baked goods, heavy on the cookies)

It sounds like it would be an absolute wonderful place.

so do it -with the damp campfire..... a real one, yes. How awesome to see your baked potato come striaght off the fire, or be able to turn up and toast your own dog without having to start the fire, and to make smores for dessert.....

If you're doing all the cooking, unless you prepare ahead and warm it up as needed, everyone would have to show up at the right time or have a long wait.
Let others do the cooking and you can shmoose from table to table, like Toots Shore.
