And so it begins...

Two years after graduating with my Bachelors in Culinary Management, I'm finally determined to dust off my degree and get the pin rolling (nyuck nyuck) to open a bakery.  This has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember so I recently had to have a serious talk with myself to figure out why I have been letting it get away from me.  The truth is, I have a great job with a fair amount of job security (as much as you can have in this unpredictable job market).  However, my job is in healthcare product development and marketing... I couldn't be in an industry farther away if I tried.  I am terrified to leave my warm security blanket to venture out into the big, bad world of food.

I know this journey is going to be difficult (so why not throw a blog on top of it!) but I'm excited about making the leap.  The plan is to register my business name along with all the preliminary paperwork (yuck), start baking in a licensed kitchen, sell my goodies to local businesses, and pick up steam while I perfect my recipes (and my bank account).  I want to offer people a dessert haven with something for everyone; with special emphasis on pies (my specialty).  I will also have options for vegans and those with sensitive diets.  Now my adventure begins!
