My SIL's DH is a doctor in Greenwich, CT (this is where Regis resides for those of you who don't know the area....)
Sooooo....I gave him a photo book of my cakes and he brought it to the owner of 2 upscale gourmet markets which happen to have bakeries in them. He called me. He loved my cakes and thinks his clients will go nuts for them.

We set up a date after the AC competition where I will bring him one of the dummy cakes to display and bring in the orders. The greatest part is that he will supply me with the cake...NO BAKING!!!! YEAY!!!! Just decorating!!! icon_biggrin.gif

Don't get me wrong....I love to bake...but with 2 kids and a house to run...I would rather spend those few hours doing other things.

I'll let you know how our meeting goes.... icon_smile.gif

And a masseuse!!! This cake decorating is back-breaking sometimes!!

Thanks everyone! I needed a little encouragement....I think being tired wears down your body and your self-confidence...
