Introduction

Dear Diary,

 

    Hello, I am Matilda and the day is August 14, 1793, I live in a coffeehouse, in Philadelphia. Which was owned by my dad but is now owned by my grandfather and my mother. There are also the employees (including me) who are; the cook is Eliza, then there is Poly I sort of forgot what she does but she helps me when my mother is on one of her tangents. All of us help to maintain and run this coffeehouse so that our customers can have the most joyous time of their life! Since we live in Philadelphia it means we are very close in distance to President George Washington.

 P.S. that is the only reason we get more than five customers a day.
