Heather P. - This is For You!!!

I was having a leisurely breakfast with my friend in Atlanta, when we struck up a conversation with our waitress. She had a lovely personality, pretty, great vibe and spirit. She was comfortable, mature, and funny. One thing led to another and I felt compelled to give her my business card, tell her of my upcoming plans for opening a business and asked her to take my card. Well, call it Karma, Kizmit, Good Vibrations, whatever - she had a degree from culinary school and knows pastry!!! Score!!! Heather...this is for you! I hope you remember me, keep my card and remember our conversation. I think you would be a perfect addition to my new shop and hope you'll be available when the time comes. I trust my instinct, and I KNOW you will be a perfect member of our team.

Cake By Cake. Indulge.

Today I looked at real estate and found a location that would be perfect for my shop. It is in an upscale part of town with tons of foot and food traffic, complementary shopping concepts and friendly people abound. I am so excited about the possibilities. I've enlisted the help of friends that have knowledge of real estate, contracts, planning, construction, blueprints and build out. I am preparing to launch...my own business. At last! I'm too excited to bake...imagine that!!! I can sense that my blog is now going to take on a whole new vibe with the challenges that lie ahead. A visit to my favorite local interior design store capped the entire day off with lots of goodies that will be in the shop as well. I even found a sign that speaks to my motto - INDULGE. I'm on my way!!!
