a post! holy crap, a post!

When George moved, I told her I'd get a blog on blogger.com, because thats where she is, and mary is here, too, and Derek. I do most of my blogging on Livejournal, but ya'll ain't there, so I intended to post occasionally over here, to keep you in the loop. And I have failed miserably, and for that I am sorry.

But now, I will post...something.

I think I like Baltimore. Some days, I like it better than others. I've made a few friends independent of the friends I already have, and thats cool. I've set a timeline for the start of the business- April 23rd, 2007. By then, I want us to have a kitchen, and all the licensing we need to be legal.

Speaking of April 23, my little sister is pregnant. She is due April 23. I'm very excited.

And in terms of the business, I'm selling cookies and candies for the Holiday season. 6 dollars a dozen for both cookies and candies, 4 dozen for $20. I'm also selling the yummirific Dipped Pretzel Rods. They are dipped in Caramel, then rolled in nuts (or not), then dipped in White or Milk Chocolate. Holy crap they're good. They're going for 75 cents each, or a dozen for Ten dollars. And I'm making bread- Banana, Lemon, Apple or Pumpkin. $8 a loaf, $4 for a mini loaf.
I've got a whole list of the cookies and candies I'm making- if you're interested, email me. My email address is: salome at themendes dot org.
I'm probably undercharging for shipping, but this is my first time doing this, so its more of a test.

I honestly don't expect to make loads of money. But I do want to see what kind of interest I can get from the people I know, and the friends of the people I know. Come February, I'm going to be selling truffles, and a few candies. But first, I need to get this holiday season out of the way.

Sadly, I won't be going home for Thanksgiving, or for Christmas. I'll probably next be in Tulsa when my sister has the baby.

So, thats my life. I know, woo.

I have my livejournal locked, so only my friends can read it. you are my friend, of course, but you don't have an LJ account. therefore, all you'd get is a picture from second season of Project Runway saying "Friends Only. Comment to be added".

But what if we want to see the PR picture? Huh? What about THAT? I mean, is the pic of Uncle Nick? Daniel Franco? Andrae? I gotsta know!

Those pretzles sound damn good. I think I need some. Oh yes. And some noodles. And cake. But not all at once.
