Yes, I'm doing it. I am baking dog treats for the rich and famous.
Okay. Maybe not the rich and famous, but most certainly for those that love their babies as much as I do.
They (those that are smarter than me...I...me???) always say, "do what you love and you'll be a success". So I'm doing what I love. Baking. Who better to bake for than my babies and all of their cousins?
I have one signature cookie. Anise and Sunflower Seed. The dogs just love them and it's a unique flavor that CAN'T be found at Costco in a 4 pound box. Of course I love Costco, but I don't want to compete with them! I'm going to do seasonal flavors, but will always have the Anise and Sunflower Seed.
The process has been interesting. The first batch took forever. Hand formed hearts that I carefully pressed sunflower seeds into. I baked them and then once they were cooled, all of the seeds fell off. I had golfball textured cookies. That sucked. Trial and error got me to where I am. The seeds are mixed in, I use a pan that has heart shapes molded into it and I now weigh my ingredients instead of measuring with cups. That last part came from being tired of hand washing so many cups and spoons.
I'm lazy.
Then there was the copyright issues that I was confronted with. I wanted to use a picture that a professional photographer took 5 years ago...she wanted to charge me $175...I passed...and now my cousin, the graphic artist, is designing the logo for me. Jennifer Harrity...I love you!
Let's see, finally, I realized that I can't bake and color my hair at the same time. I'm afraid to see what this mop looks like when it's dry.
Moral to the story: Do what you love, and you'll be happy. If you're happy...you're a success.
