opening invitations

the chef of the restaurant with my paintings, got back to me concerning the possible opening party dates. either this coming sat afternoon, or next sunday morning with brunch. this saturday is much too soon. people all have their plans, so i chose next sunday. it’s hard to pick a perfect time. during the weekday, people are working, during the week evenings, people with families don’t find it easy to go out. weekends people go away, have plans and kids have sports. sunday morning doesn’t seem ideal – people may go to church or sleep in. anyway, we’ll do what we can. i sent invitations by email to old time friends, people i met through the school, the smith club, dog people from the park. it was around 100 invitations. i worded it as an exhibition opening party with the chef proposing a brunch at 19 euros following. normally the restaurant is not open on sundays. he told me that in france, if people work on sundays, they get paid double, by law. hmm, i guess that explains why so many things are closed on sundays. anyway, hoping people come, so we can have a nice get together. could be fun.
