nada

She was Croatian and cooked our meals from scratch - a lamb gyro and flavorful sausage sandwiched between fried pita, Bosnian style. The orange flavored drink - jupi - was a refreshing start. We stayed and chatted after our generously-sized meals. She sat in the corner crocheting. She worked alone, the front and the back. She brought us her "New Years" cookies, free of charge, and showed us photos of the cakes she makes. The white pineapple cake made my mouth water. Then she insisted we try another dessert - her strawberry cookie. She sat down and rested after the second round of desserts. She said she would have to close in a couple of months if business didn't pick up. Her name was Nada. Nada means nothing in Spanish, but in her native tongue, nada means hope.
