I’ve been pretty lazy about making posts, so I’m committing to doing at least one a month. Hopefully more, but let’s start realistically.
January has been a good month. My family and I traveled to San Francisco and we did touristy things. Growing up in the area, I did not do much in the way of touristy activities as it was such chaos. We went on the cable cars and street cars, ate at Ghiradelli Square, walked Fisherman’s Wharf and more. It was really fun. Hopefully my boys remember.
I’ve also submitted my application for my Cottage Food License which will allow me to sell my home baked goods! So those things I’ve been playing with and envisioning could become a reality. I’m really excited to make this happen. When I left the restaurant almost 9 years ago, I did so, in part, so I could pursue my dream starting my own business— particularly to make chocolates. In the beginning I was good about putting in my time to practice and work on ideas and recipes. I would take things in to the office and my coworkers would try them and give me feedback. However, slowly I didn’t make as much stuff and I got busier with my paying job and other home life. This is an opportunity to reset and continue to pursue my passion.
Hopefully I’ll get my license and be able to sell some delicious Valentine’s Day goodies.
Here’s a picture of chocolates I made back in the day!
