Brownies!!

I made Knock You Nekkid brownies tonight just for fun.  Yes, you have to say nekkid, not naked but it sounds dirtier that way.  :)  I haven't made them in a long while and they aren't much to look at but my gosh, I bet dollars to donuts that it will be consumed tomorrow before noon.  You know, a nice breakfast, mid morning snack, and hell, lunch.

COOKIE MONSTER

So today I'm finishing my order for oatmeal raisin (I told you about my trust issues and raisins, didn't I?) and peanut butter cookies.  Now that I've made them I may want to take them off my menu.  Unless I'm making about four to six dozen cookies, it doesn't seem worth all the effort to make just a couple dozen.  Since I'm new to this, I am still working out all the kinks. I may but down on my menu form minimum 4 dozen.  I hope JR likes them.  I made extra to sell in little brown paper bags like when I was a kid and me, they will be gone around lunch time.  Week 1 is almost done.  I don't think I made any money so I need to make changes if I want to do this before my son's basketball season starts.  I think I can do well during the holiday season so let's keep doing down the rabbit hole.

Success!!!

I gave my customer the cake and she loved it.  Funny thing is, I posted the pictures to FB before I brought the cake to work and a few coworkers on my FB saw the white box with purple ribbon but they didn't know who it was for.  They were going to go through each office to see who got the prize.  So crazy.  They could have just emailed and asked.  But I got another order out of it!  One of the guys in the business office is ordering cookies for his relatives coming this weekend.  Another coworker is bitter that I don't have peach cobbler on the menu.  So I had Original Jenni modify my form and now there is a special request section.  Not good enough for this princess.  She wants it on the permanent menu.  I have already had the argument that peach cobbler is a fall/winter type dessert for me.  Like Key Lime pie is usually only in summer.  I will have to play with the menu or come up with seasonal versions.
Still excited!!!

The Beginning.

I've never done a blog before but I've been baking, cooking, and helping plan parties since I could reach the stove.  I'm not for the fancy cakes and decorating, I just like comfort food.  The kind my mom and grandmother used to do.  My name is Kelli and I love to bake.  My coworkers are always asking me, what are you bringing to the office?  So I decided to say, sure I'll bring ya stuff to nosh on at work, but now I'm going to charge ya.  I got my first customer that day.  Cream cheese pound cake.  Simple yet it goes with fruit, ice cream, or just by itself.  I had to make two because the guinea pigs, I mean kids, always want to try what I make.  For my first effort with the cream cheese version of the pound cake, I think I did pretty good.  I'll let everyone know how my customer feels about it.
