    assuming you had the money to do it, what would it be and why?

    I would like to open a restaurant that specializes in having gluten free food. My mom has Celiac Disease, which is a digestive disease that damages the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. People who are diagnosed with Celiac Disease cannot tolerate gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley.

    My mom has to be on a strict gluten free diet and cannot consume foods that most people eat every day. She can still eat well balanced meals but she has to be careful what she eats and even eliminate some of her favorite foods.

    There are restaurants that are starting to recognize Celiac Disease (Outback Steakhouse, Bugaboo's, Seafood restaurants...) but I just wish there was a restaurant designed specifically around here that could provide and prepare special meals for people like my mom who have a food allergy. People with food allergies need love too, lol.

    So that's what I would do if I had money to do it. Open a gluten free restaurant.

    Definitely a little bakery....slash game store lol.

    But really, I've been talking to Maxime about this for so long, he'd really like to open a game store someday and preferably in my hometown since there aren't any game stores down there. Me, I'd like a little bakery, like...Little Marjy's Bakery. Hehe. xD

    I always wanted a small little record shop with alot of vinyl for sale. Just a place where you can browse, come in and chill out to some good tunes and just vibe with people.

    I want to own a baby accessories shop. I make baby blankets and things for all my friends when they are expecting, and would love to have a place to sell them, in addition to all the other baby things that are necessary.

    I want to own my own farmland and live on it. With a coffee shop on the premises as well, obviously. I think I'd rather be in a position where I wouldn't actually have to run it as a business and just keep and grow my own stuff there though.
