Day Off Day Two...

Well, went for a run today in Balboa Park. It was the Perfect morning to run, not too hot, not too cold, just right. Came back home and found that Bear had yet again struck, this time I left him in my bathroom. It was trashed but at least it was only in one section. I was a little angry, but since i expected it this time around I was able to get over it rather quickly. I made myself a wonderful scramble. Egg whites, spinach, mushrooms and red hot peppers, Yum!! Next plan for the day will be Bread making, I'm teaching a few family members and friends how to make their own bread. It will be a lot of fun!! I made some calculations and for my recipe it makes four loafs of bread that cost me $.75 to make all four loafs! That's crazy! It costs me at least $3.00 for one loaf at the store! I think I'm going to stick to making my own bread from now on, what a money saver and there are less ingredients in it!!

Have you made your own bread? Maybe Yogurt? Or Granola? Let us know we would love to hear about it!!

A Day Off... Wish I was Working!

Well we have a few days off, we haven't received any calls for parties or platters to be made for the next several days... So what happened on my first day off today so far...
Woke up, to the dog that I'm nursing back to health out for a potty break then I put him back in my room, I then went to the gym. It was a very good class "Tone and Sculpt" I'm sure i will feel it tomorrow morning. When I came home I went to my room where everything was trashed, lets start with the bad news shall we... After sleepless nights taking care of this dog, helping it get better so that he is well enough to find a new home he decided to repay me by redecorating... Trash from my bathroom everywhere, he somehow opened my cabinet filled with cleaned towels and took them all out, he decided that my favorite hat was a chew toy and that my bed was his new dog bed. Good News... He's well enough to find a home!!! I spent the rest of the morning yelling, picking up the towels off the floor and throwing back on the floor with an angry fit and picking it back up again, after everything was clean and I had calmed down I looked in his eyes and told him that I was glad that he was feeling better, but that if he did that again he would no longer be sleeping in a warm house.

Plans for today:
Laundry
Teach a friend how to make baguettes
Make some Homemade 2% plain yogurt
Find Bear A New Home
Go spend some time with my grandmother

How's your day going so far? Anything crazy happen? What are your plans?

Sorry its been so long

We have been very busy lately, Christmas, New Years, Birthdays, Parties, Cakes, Baked Goods and a lot of discussion on changing our business a little bit.

Raven and I are considering changing our catering business to be strictly Vegan. Most of our clients have been Vegan clients, especially when it comes down to making vegan gluten free cakes. What do you think? We know that if we do everything we have more options for everyone, however if we just focus on Vegan Cuisine we will have more time to become creative and think right outside the box... there is so much to consider. Anyway At the moment we are baking Vegan Baguettes to make some fantastic sandwiches for a small get together. I'll try to write more as often as I can, here are a few things we have done over the last couple weeks.
Thanks for Reading!
