Well beautiful people, as I mentioned I have reapplied to have my home kitchen re-inspected by Ards Environmental Health Office with regards to restarting my baking from home business. I received my window/door sticker from EHO yesterday, and am now officially in the system of inspection applied for.
My kitchen at this house is the smallest galley kitchen imaginable, when they say too small to swing a cat, it is definitely true of my home kitchen. However, I have a secret weapon, Gordon. Gordon can pack a metre squared into a foot squared and still make it look like there is room left.
This weekend, I am going to do a trial run of Mother's Day ideas, and will post then on the page to see what you all think. If you would like to purchase any of the goodies, just drop me a DM, you would be doing family a huge favour, as they will be guinea pig for the upcoming Mother's Day baking. I will also be taking orders for Easter.
I would love to be able to offer a postal service of some of the bakes, and have asked the EHO for advise on the best way to set this up. So, Alan Horrocks, you may be getting a goodie box in the post when I have it all figured out.
I will also be baking pavalovas for Easter weekend, if anyone would be interested. Possibly, depending on time and space, a few larger family cakes or cheesecakes.
I will add some photos just as reminders of my style, and also would like to remind all my customers, and to thank them for supporting the more traditional bakes. My mum was an excellent baker, and taught me many of granny's recipes.
I truly do thank all my loyal customers, who have ridden on the cancer train with me. It was not just the physical symptoms that had to be endured, but the mental ones too. My mental health truly took a hammering, but the counselling has truly made a huge difference.
Whatever you are doing, not matter what your challenges may be, remember that nothing stays the same.
