PE 9/3 Running a Cat Café

No, I did some brainstorming with a few friends of mine. One is a writer and the other works in advertising. I couldn't have found a better mastermind group than them!
* brainstorm: to share ideas with others in an effort to come up with a plan or solution to a problem
ex> My wife and I sat at the kitchen table and brainstormed how we could come up with money to buy a house.

I’m sure you guys had more than a few Eureka moments!
* Eureka moment: an instance of sudden realization
ex> The discovery of electricity must have been quite a Eureka moment, albeit a shocking one.

My friend’s cat had seven kittens and he couldn't give them away for almost six months. I told him I’d do him a favor and take them from him, but really, he did me a solid by giving me those kittens.
* do someone a solid: to perform an important favor for someone
ex> My brother did me a solid by buying me a plane ticket to attend my elderly mother’s birthday party.

Well, a few of them never went to finishing school and like to get on the table, but our clients are generally animal lovers, so they know how to deal with that.
* finishing school: a place where one learns manners and social graces
ex> From the look of your clothes and shoes, you may need to go back to finishing school.

Look at those two cats sleeping on that old man’s lap over there. That kind of thing makes my heart sing! Definitely a stress-reliever.
* make one’s heart sing: to be filled with joy or happiness
ex> Seeing old couples holding hands makes my heart sing.
