OVER THE RAINBOW CAF&# 195;ÂâÂÂS FAMOUS FRUIT SALAD Dorothy Gale Robinson, an aspiring actress, is the daughter of hippie parents with a passion for old movies. When her father is killed suddenly while sipping a non-fat decaf mocha latte at a local coffee shop, DorothyâÂÂs life is turned upside down. In this scene, DorothyâÂÂs mother decides to sell the family home and open a New Age Café. Excerpt from Hey Dorothy YouâÂÂre Not in Kansas Anymore: I yelled for my mom but there was no response. Then the phone started ringing. I picked it up: âÂÂHello,â I said. âÂÂDorothy - this is your mother.â âÂÂWhere are you, Mom?â âÂÂIâÂÂm staying at your brotherâÂÂs for a few days. TheyâÂÂre still painting my apartment.â âÂÂMy apartment, Sweetie.â âÂÂWhy do you have an apartment?â âÂÂBecause IâÂÂm selling the house.â âÂÂWhy are you selling your house?â âÂÂThatâÂÂs the only way I can afford to pay for the café.â âÂÂThe one IâÂÂm buyingâ¦â Because necessity is the mother of invention - at least, I think itâÂÂs the mother and not the father - my mother made the decision to sell the house and all her stuff and use any profits to buy an old café with a small apartment above it in YâÂÂbor City. Her plan was to fix it up and create a unique theme. She decided to make her café a metaphysical bistro serving a light vegetarian menu - exotic coffees, herbal teas and fresh-squeezed juices - and providing card readings, psychics, crystals and other mystical, supernatural, spiritual stuff. And the establishment was to be called Over the Rainbow Metaphysical Café. (No surprise there!) At first, I thought the idea was total crap, but the more I thought about it, the more I liked it. Especially when I realized my momâÂÂs underlying, subconscious, metaphoric reason for wanting to open Over the Rainbow Café: to battle the evil BuckstarâÂÂs in their plot to take over the world.
