Good Morning!! Yesterday during the lunch rush, I was walking out of the kitchen and nearly ran into 4 young adults. I greeted them and also apologized for nearly plowing them over. As I am guiding them to their table, one of them says...."This is our first time here, we are from the east coast." They were giddy to be here, their excitement contagious. I told them how happy I was they chose the CIG..... "we are about as Texan as you can get" my accent made them smile. They tell of their journey, they all four just graduated from a college in Massachusetts. They were celebrating their accomplishment by a road trip across the country. Ahhhh, to talk to them was a celebration. They reminded me.... take time out and celebrate the great things the Lord has allowed you to do. We are so busy "doing life" they we let great accomplishments go by ...striving for the next accomplishment. Happy Beautiful Wednesday yall.... a few of the girls stopped by their table yesterday to visit and to listen of their journey and congratulate them... we were celebrating this amazing journey they were on. When you celebrate yourself its great but when you celebrate others with an absolute pure heart....it makes your heart sing. I am so blessed they shared their journey with me. I pray for these 4 kids....they made an impact on all of us

AuthorI opened the Cast Iron Grill in October 2007. Lots of changes have happened in the last 5 1/2 years. The CIG started with 55 seats in an office building located at 18th and K. After five years, we were bursting at the seams with now 167 seats, and 24 wonderful co-workers working on top of eachother to make it happen. 2012 the Lord chose a different journey for the CIG. We relocated the CIG and opened our doors on January 2nd, 2013, just four blocks away from the old location! It has changed my world completely! All of these stories are the happenings of the people and the joy and celebration that make the CIG what it is. Archives
