For the record, here's a link to the business page I set up on Facebook, and here's one to the donations page I have for start up money.

I've been so grateful for all of the emotional and financial support I've been getting from friends and family. Completely blew me away to meet my initial fundraising goal in two days.

With great support comes great responsibility. :lol2:

Those definitely looks and sound yummy. I would buy one. :)

Trying to assemble 80 pies at once. Dum dum DUUUUUM! (Dramatic fanfare)

delicious.

I just gained five pounds reading your post.

thanks for that. :eyebrow:

BigV, I think it's time for a pilgrimage. You can pick me up in Montana on the way to Tampa. Choco will have them perfected by the time we're there.

Deal.

Things are moving along. I have a logo and a set menu, now.

You see that, BigV?

Tonight, we dine in Tampa.

I'm hungry.

That's a nice array of flavors you have there. Have you had your first vendor day yet?

Not yet! I'll be filling out the market application this weekend and hearing back within a few weeks. I had been all ready to fill it out, only to discover I needed to have a picture of my stall in the application. (Boo, hiss.) So that set me back a few days, as I had been planning to cobble all that together after I applied.

Keep your fingers crossed I can get a spot at the market near home! They have about a hundred different vendors, but they like to keep it diverse so they don't allow in too many bakers.

Yum. Your menu sounds divine. Save some Azteca for me!
