...and here we go!

Hello and welcome to the "Caution: Baking in Process" blog. I am using this blog to spread the word about my bakery in its earliest stages. For several years I have commented here and there about opening up my own place, and I love when I get to show off what dessert I made for the family get together or the Jackson-Dawson dessert contest. I wasn't sure how, but it's something I have always wanted to do.
Here's the problem: I was too comfortable. Comfortable in the fact that every day I get up and go to work. Every other week I have a check deposited in my bank account. Every year I get a couple of weeks vacation to enjoy what I want to do. Well, I'm no longer comfortable. For the past several months I have wondered when my job (homebuilder) was going to end, and, sure enough, I got that call recently. I no longer have anything holding me back. Now is the time to stop working, to have fun and start having fun at work.
This blog will chronicle my journey from an idea in my head to a real, live, functioning bakery complete with a sign out front, employees in the back and bills in the mail.
Over the next few months I will be posting pictures of the creations I have made, taking suggestions on new desserts to try and listening to any tips or tricks that have helped you in the past. I will update you with any new progress on permits, licenses, sales, recipes...wait, maybe I will put the recipes in a book and sell them when my store opens...none the less you will get a play-by-play on how my bakery is progressing.
Thank you for checking out my blog and I hope you enjoy.
