Business started back up this weekend and just giving you all a heads up on how things went. Saturday started out not so great, as my cupcakes did not stay put in the so called cupcake carrier and when I got to the market they were all over the place. So I manage to salvage 12 for display and only sold 2, but, I did sell out on cinnamon rolls (woo hoo) but only sold 6 of the 21 dozen cookies. Oh well, at least I didn't have to bake more for Today's Market and sold all but 4 dozen which is awesome. So it went ok, but could have been better, and it all ended up awesome with a few lessons learned. When the bake days are actually bake days, that is always a good thing. If anyone has missed me over the past week I've been buried in work but as I mentioned before you can always send me an email and I will get a notification. Ya know like, if ya wanted to meet me...............or if ya wanted to get better acquainted.............or if ya missed me..........btw...... did anyone miss me?

Sven!!! I always miss my pool boy!!! Muah!!!

Now I want cupcakes.

I had a great weekend! We cooked for a Ronald McDonald House benefit. This charity houses families who have children in the Texas Medical Center and could not otherwise afford to be near them.

Hi, cupcake...

Awesome, great that you give of your time like that

ty you Iam, nice to be missed and kissed

Don't be stealing my cupcakes.

Took the missus down to the Lake District, in England, for the May bank holiday weekend and we've had a brilliant weekend. The icing on the cake though was my team Glasgow Celtic, winning the Scottish football (soccer) league title! Gonna be partying all summer now because of that, our 4th year in a row winning it! Driving back to Scotland, tomorrow night and back to work on Tuesday morning!

You just had to say "icing on the cake" didn't you..........

Not only did I steal them, I already ate them, too....

That's one thing I kinda like about grocery stores.

I don't have to see the person that actually made my food.

I know I should give a crap and wonder what's in my food but every time I've been to a farmers market or deli or whatever where people sell their produce, and breads, and food they make, I always notice lots of facial hair, or just hair (I'm a guy, I know how much guys shed), sweating, sneezing, hands directly touching whatever in the middle of the afternoon and knowing all the bathrooms are port a potties, standing there talking to them and smelling their breath, and a million other things that just scream "they could have dipped their balls/snot in that!"

Since I have absolutely no desire to become a farmer or a farmer chef I really really appreciate not having to see who is making what I eat.

Even at restaurants and fast food places. I had friends that worked for Wendy's that told and showed me the awful things they did to the food. Some places have the open kitchen. I really don't like those places.

Even when dating, when someone makes a meal I eat it because it's a gift or means of communication. I don't really want to, because I saw them make it and 2 hours ago I noticed they went to the bathroom and didn't really wash up.
Or we had sex about 30 minutes ago and now they're making me a sandwich. Is that "really" mayonnaise? Did I just see you lick mustard off the finger that shocked me in the middle of fellation?

So, I'm thankful for what goes into the support of my blissful ignorance; being so, in this regard, makes me truly happy.
Just like being able to ignore how much human remains, hair, and rat feces is allowed in the ketchup by government guidelines.

Out of sight, out of mind. Put it before me and I'll eat it. Let me watch someone make it and then I become a little too Diane Sawyer with the black light in the hotel room.

I didn't really know what the purpose of this thread was.


I didn't throw anything at you.
I can't speak for anyone else.

So you're a baker! I have a chip recipe that I found on a site that I've been told is like crack. It has a few non usual ingredients for chip cookies. You might want to check it out.

I will tell you I had to add a half cup more of flour so the cookies didn't flatten out like pancakes but they are awesome chip cookies especially with white chocolate chips. Just saying they are chip crack.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm kinda partial to the way Captain Ozzies does his cookies.

Post some pics of your baked goods for us ..
