I am a middle-aged newbie entrepreneur.
I turned lemons into lemonade.
I created a highly specialized product so that I, myself, could eat bread.
Turned out that other people were looking for just what I had created.
I didn't want to borrow large sums of money.
I didn't want to owe anyone any money.
I took a (relatively) small amount of my own dollars and built a small (and cute) commercial kitchen out of an office suite.
I had the support and good counsel of my town board of health and building inspectors. I asked them how to build it right and they taught me. (good teachers are the best!)
I've just passed the 1 year anniversary of the opening of my kitchen.
I've learned so much about things I never even thought about before this year.
I often ponder about how to grow a business that people are happy to work for and are happy to patronize.
I try to make the business as green as possible, as sustainable as possible and as minimally wasteful as possible.
I want the culture of my business to reflect my high ethics and high standards.
This blog will be a place for to share my thoughts and ponderings.
