The Little Things

God! I am still so stuck in the naming of my business! :( It is getting kind of depressing actually. :p Well, other than that, everything is going smoothly. My dear Husband agreed to help me work on writing up my business plan. So I have been scouring the internet for business plan templates that I can use to guide me. I am excited about getting it finally all on paper so I will have a tangible guide, and not just all this info and ideas floating around in my head! :-)

I used that white chocolate frosting. Instead of cupcakes, I made Shawn a dark chocolate cake with white chocolate frosting. :) It was delicious! I really like that chocolate cake recipe! It is so simple, yet soooo moist and rich. :) Yum, yum, yum....

I am really getting a lot out of reading through cake forums. I am learning soooo much! It is like having hundreds of instructors right at your finger tip. I think I am becoming addicted. :-D I have been reading on them for a couple of months now, but I just recently signed up so I can post. :-) I love books, don't get me wrong, but it can be soo much easier to log on Youtube and watch someone making buttercream roses. You "get it" so much faster, and without having to try it right off. I just love the internet!

Ok, let's see, I am also a little frustrated. I know I really shouldn't be, but I want to move a bit faster with getting this business started!! :) That is "me" for you. I can be sooo impatient! Also, I am frustrated about renting a commercial kitchen. I can only find one that seems like it will work, and it is going to cut into profits badly. I don't expect to pay the rent with this business for a while, but I would like to be able to put more back into the business instead of paying up to $23 an hour to rent a kitchen almost an hour away.... I wish Texas had a cottage food law.... :'(
