Oh, I'll still be around here. I am looking for applicants for the leader of the FNCC, though.

Thank you each and every one for the good wishes - it really means a lot. I really feel like I know you through your postings!!

I told my wedding network group tonight. A lot of jaws hit the floor.

If you're on Fb, just search for Louisville Dessert Truck.

Congratulations on your new venture. It sound like fun and your menu looks very yummy. One question, how do you keep your red chocolate from bleeding into your white chocolate on your valentine cookies? I have tried doing these but can't figure out how to stop the color bleed. Thanks for any advice you care to give. Again congratulations and good luck.

Are you going to Twitter your locations? It would be fun to see where you are. My daughter lives close.

Good luck to you. We are adding a new venture too... after having a commercial kitchen at home like you, I just need a small retail space for sales only. But yours sounds much more fun.

Not sure what you're talking about. IF I offer Valentine cookies next year, they will be topped with fondant. I don't make cookies topped with royal icing or glaze. I quit doing that time-sucking nonsense years ago.

Oh wow! Much success. My daughter might be moving back to L'ville, we'll have to look you up.
I am about 2 weeks away from opening my kitchen. Not just concentrating on cakes. Hope that helps keep my head straight!
Bring that truck on south to Woodburn someday. We'll meet at the Corvette Museum!

Congrats on hopping on a new ride in the amusement park of life! I know you will love putting the "fun" back into the food passion again (by eliminating the "but the green didn't match the color of my vines on the centerpieces! you've RUINED my wedding!" crowd! LOL!) Life's too short to miss out on doing things we really wanna do!

Go girl! thumbs_up.gif
