Good Morning!! My mom was an all-state basketball player.... yes for those that know my height, she was a lot taller than me. She was raised by a single mom, with two sisters and a brother. A story that has stuck with me since I was a kid..... After every game the team would go to a cafe for pie. My memaw would give my mom the .75 cents to eat with the team, what my mom did not know that when my memaw gave that to her, she would not eat lunch for a few days. My memaw wanted so much for her child, that she would sacrifice her eating so my mom could be with the team. This life lesson has stuck with me for 35 years. When you love someone with all your heart, you will sacrifice for them. When you have children you will sacrifice anything for their safety, happiness & well being..... the ultimate sacrifice was given from our heavenly father, he did not send us money or food for us to live, he sent his son. As a parent, we make huge sacrifices everyday for our children but if we do not teach them about the ultimate sacrifice given to them, none of the other stuff matters. Happy Tuesday yall.....when you make sacrifices for your loved ones remember the utlimate sacrifice of love you were given and plant the seed for those you love....it will be life changng:) believe and receive yall!!

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
