After only a few short weeks of being in the cookie business, Anna has decided that it is too stressful. Well, maybe stressful isn't the word. What Anna said was that baking for profit and on demand has taken the joy out of it. At first, not being a baker, I couldn't understand. However, when I...

Cookie Business Naming--Part 2
Ok, so not a good response to "Cookies for Change". Here is what we were thinking...and maybe you could help us with this. What we want to be able to do is have customers place their order and then have $3 of their order donated to a charity. We will have a list they can choose from. Thus, cookies...

Robert Arrives Today
Robert, my husband's brother's son, who is coming to live with us, arrives this evening. He has been researching the legalities of Anna's cookie business. And has come up with some interesting ideas. I wonder how long I have to give him to settle in, before tossing the apron and cookie ingredients...
