“My Foray Into Home Baking As A Business”
In this new post I share my personal experience between 2023-2024 when I found myself selling my baked treats like hotcakes and, for a while, seriously considering home baking as an actual business.
I share how it all happened, what I learned, the fun parts, the exhausting ones, what worked and what didn’t.
Whether you are thinking of starting a home baking business or not, I hope you will find it interesting. Besides, there are lots of drool-worthy pics in there to lift the spirits and tempt the taste buds.
You will find the link in my profile, under “Latest Post”, or you can comment BAKING under this post and I will be happy to send it to you directly.
Happy Wednesday everyone!

Lately I have been missing the Redwoods a lot, especially now that it’s starting to get hotter.
In my part of California, they only appear here and there, maybe one or two at a time in the landscaping of a garden, but there are no forests. For those, the Redwoods need the cool mist of the coastal fog.
Which is why, when it came time to create the new Calendar Wallpaper for June, I thought of Redwoods. I hope their peaceful strength and wise energy will radiate through the images all the way to you.
Available for laptop/desktop, iPad/tablet and iPhone/smartphone, the monthly calendar wallpaper can be downloaded for free as it is my gift to you. You can find the download link in my profile, or if you write REDWOODS in the comments, I will be happy to message it to you directly.
Happy June everyone!

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my kind, loving, stubborn, impatient, honest, singing, deep-voiced, mountaineer, very-chill-once-he-retired, super-picky-with-food, never-uttered-a-criticism-ever, should-have-been-a-cowboy Dad! 🩵
“You made it to 89 and then left us just five days later. I know you are doing well as you have visited in dreamtime and there was much lightness and ease, but I wouldn’t mind hearing your deep singing voice again when you can. We all miss you terribly! Love you forever.” 🩵

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mothers and to all those who have been mothering in some way.
Here is mine. She no longer looks quite like this, though this is how I think of her and I am sure this is how she thinks of herself.
The main thing is that she is still with us, despite all the challenges. I get to talk to her every day and will be spending more time with her in a few weeks. That is a blessing I don’t take lightly.
