i love how your counter looks. it looks very quirky to me, reminds me of the show charmed for some reason. i love the name of the shop too.
congratulations and good luck!
Evry thing is so perfect, I loved the chairs and tables, your display, the color on the walls, everything. You have a very pretty and nice shop. It is so much fun to see every succes story in pothos, because let me tell you just starting is a succes; I hope you do very well. Congratulations

It looks beautiful!!!!!!!!! I love the color and the name. My friend always says Delish! Good Luck! Can't wait to hear an update!
Congratulations! You are obviously a good business person to be able to pay for everything up front, so I know you will do well. My father's favorite word is Delish, so I grew up hearing it. Never thought of it as a store name, but it is PERFECT!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!IT LOOKS SO COOL!

WOW! I think it's amazing that you have that - and paid for no less!!!!! Congratulations!!! I love it. I think it's beautiful.
o.k., I posted the pictures this morning and left for the shop so i didn't know i had so many responses. Well my husband and i are both accountants, but i am hanging up my calculator. I have been a stay at home mom for the last 6 yrs. The money came out of our savings so i have to replenish that.
I actually have a lot of business already and i have not open the doors yet, daily wholesale, 2graduation cakes this weekend, a wedding and groom cake next weekend. The 2 newspapers in town are coming next week. I am nervous.
The building is really old and i love that, the colors are a cross between light lime and apple with chocolate brown.The space is only about 1500sqft. Every since we put the jars out we find people with their faces plastered to the glass quite often I have not even posted the phone number yet and people are calling all the time. About a year ago I did a cake for an event here in town and people still remember, I just knew they would so i did the cake for free. Yes my cake skills have improved glad to say that. I just have not had time to post any new pictures
And I know the walls are bare I have to hang my artwork, and permits and write on the menu board. TFL
Send prayers!
btw Mike1394 hands off the granite--it was free because it was removed from wherever as one piece and to big and heavy for the hassle it's 10ftx4 only cost me 50 dollars to get it there.

WOW!!! Congratulations and I too agree, it looks marvelous!!! Now where is it so we can come and visit??
looks amazing!! im gonna be nosey here lol but what all will you offer besides baked goods? i had thought of opening a bakery/deli where i did cold food like different sandwiches and salads. anyhow like i said just being nosey sorry
What a beautiful space!! You have every right to be SO proud of what you've accomplished! SUper COngrats!!!!!!!
I have been busy but i wanted to try and answer the questions, Ladyhitman we do quite a bit muffins, croissants, sconce and assorted cinnamon rolls, danishes and pastries in the mornings which i do not do a second run baking on when it's gone-it's gone, we have a 11a-1p lunch, with deli sandwiches on croissants or sourdough, and we do cookies, mini tarts, cupcakes, parfaits and of course cakes.
It sounds like a lot but we make dough ahead of time we even do french and mexican breads by request. I have two employees and we have a huge wholesale commercial account, you would not believe how huge. Since i only have taxes and employees to pay and utilities i am instantly in the Black-but i have to replenish my savings.
For those that asked i am in NW MO.
Thanks for all the support I need it, if anybody else wants to sit in the corner and rock let me know.
Thanks, thats what I was wondering. If and when I get to open my own place any food i serve would be cold foods like i said. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. If im ever in the area i will have to check your place out lol it looks so neat!!
VERY COOL. Do you offer tours, and do you allow fondling of the granite?
Mike
I laughed out loud when I read this one! I was thinking the same thing...I want to run my hands all over the granite while oohing and aaahing!!!
Hi, everybody, i have been swamped so i have not been on for a while i have lots of pictures to up load and share. i will try to load tonight. i also have good news to share and bad. see the attached photos sorry the windows are dirty they are resurfacing the outside of the building the window washer will come when they are done.
O.K. I am having a problem uploading these pics, they are of our holiday display... I will shrink them some more and try again... bare with me.
Wow! This is awesome! I can't wait to see more pictures. Congrats and I'm glad to hear the last 6 months have been super busy for you!
i can't wait to see the pics. your shop from the first pics you posted looks like you got a gem. gee you are so blessed. super congratulations!! you said you had good and bad to tell everyone, well... you know for those reading the thread want to know what it is, hehehe!
I'm so sorry that i started posting and the pics will not upload, but i promise to get them up. The good news is my shoppe is a success i am super booked for most of Dec.
The bad news is i have no help , My part time help is leaving me, she has decided to work fulltime at a local plant AND my full time fell and broke her leg in Mexico. I have not had any meaningful sleep in weeks
Congratulations on your shop! I love the chandelier, actually I love everything about your shop! I hope you get some help soon...sending prayers your way!
Oh....that totally sucks! Wish I lived near you so I could offer you a hand! I hope can find someone soon to help out! Can't wait to see your updated photos.
well that is bad, sorry. you should put a thread on here about part time help. are you allowed to do that??? maybe someone lives near you who would want to work part time. will put this on "watch" and come back to look for the pics. so happy for you and all the success you are having!!
Thanks everyone, i am in Missouri the coldest part and i have offers, of course they have no experience, the wrong time of year for that,
it will work itself out,
I don't know how, i only know that it will. I will try the pics again tomorrow.
