The Office

While in the midst of production on Good Dog Dog Biscuits, we realized the importance of a good working space, a space conducive to creative thinking, problem solving and coffee consumption. On one of our bi-annual brainstorming walks, we noticed that our neighborhood video store had undergone a magical transformation; it had become Goldhahn & Sampson a specialty food store-cum-cafe-cum-bookstore-cum-cooking school. In a nutshell, an ingenious combination of the things we love and covet. We soon began to conduct all business meetings in the shop and elected it to be our official Office. As far offices go, it offers all the standard amenities and then some, including mood lighting, a comfy couch, wireless internet, a bathroom, an array of coffee and snacks, ambient music, nice wallpaper, light shopping, and a wide selection of reference material (cookbooks). Unbeknown to them, Mr. Goldhahn and Mr. Sampson have been more than supportive of our projects, allowing us to linger for hours, using the Internet, perusing the sale bin, and sampling their products. While business for Goldhahn & Sampson is booming, we continue to struggle, but on their couch and with their coffee, we carry on the good fight.
