Just an update

So, my friend and I are having serious talks about the business.

We're going to do a 'cheesecake of the month' club, selling online and shipping around the country. We're thinking $300(that includes shipping) for 12 cheesecakes, one a month. Probably an 8 inch, which will serve 8-10. Or 3, if George, Mary and I get together all depressed. :) Anyway, that breaks down to $40 a cheesecake, which is a damn good deal, considering shipping and whatnot.
We'll probably also do a bi-monthly delivery, or 3 month, for the weiners who can't shell out the dough. I'm also going to sell the cookies, candies, and jams on the website. So, when you want to send a nice gift to someone you like, you'll know where to go. :)

Right now, we're trying to figure out the licensing and finding a kitchen. Probably, we should be looking for money, too. I'm going to look into gov't loans for women starting a business. But we're going to make this happen.

I'm still not working, because my gorram cosmetology license still hasn't shown up. Blast and damn. I've been working at the Farmers Market on Saturdays for the Mushroom Lady, so I'm making a little money, but certainly not enough.

Also, I've gone vegetarian for a year. Just a year. I haven't gone crazy yet. But weirdly, I"m craving shellfish more than I am red meat. Hm.

vegetarian? QUOI?!?!

i'm so stunned right now that i can't even focus on the joys of cheesecake. holy toledo. i'm getting the most bizarre visions at this moment. get that business up and going so i can think about something besides you dressed as a demented chicken.

and i don't mean chicken in a "my peeps" kinda way. i mean a big chicken. it could just be stress from my travels, right?

How does one ship a cheesecake, anyway? Does it involve dry ice? If so, I'd definitely include that tid bit in promotional info. Dry ice is kickin' ... as long as what it's kickin' is ASS!

And yeah, the 3 month subscription is a good idea. Very good. The idea of spending $300 on *anything* makes me break out into a cold sweat. Yup. Just call me Miserly Mary.

You need to tell us more about the Crazy Mushroom Lady. She *is* crazy, isn't she?
