Just here crawling the walls...


My title today is two-fold...

As promised, one of this weeks accomplishments is a Spiderman cake... Here he is... still not perfect, but I think he resembles the web-slinging wall-crawler...


The second meaning is simply based on the fact that I'm so not a patient person... I'm still waiting for an answer or guidance on the space. Apparently the costs to bring the space up to code was quite a bit more than the property management group has in mind. We're supposed to talk sometime today.
Keep your forks and knives crossed!

Until next time, happy baking!

Teaching an old dog new tricks...

I gotta tell you, I used to think I was somewhat adept at technology, but I've finally hit a wall. I'm trying some of the new technologies--blogs, blackberries, and social networking sites--and I guess I'm finally getting old. It's taking me forever to figure out how to make things work!

That said, welcome to my blog--Life at The Snickerdoodle Cafe. I'm hoping to keep everyone posted on the progress of my adventures in entrepreneurship. Eventually, I'll have a full functioning website complete with menus, orders, etc. However, right now, I'm just trying to get the business up and running!

So... to my many new Nashville friends I'm hoping to bring you wonderful sandwiches, salads, snacks, soups, and sinfully delicious desserts soon. I hope to have a final answer on the building space on Thursday. Until then, keep your forks and knives crossed that it all works out.

Lions and tigers and bears... OH MY!
In the past couple of weeks, my adventures in the kitchen have taken on a new slant... custom, sculpted cakes of the animal persuasion.

Last weekend was a lion; this weekend's was a bear... Anyone needing a tiger?!?! I'm sure I can work on it!

I'm totally enjoying making the sculpted cake adventures. I'm not exactly Duff and the crew from Ace of Cakes, but eventually I'll get there. Later this week, I'm working on Spiderman... Keep the crazy requests coming! I love the challenge... Until next time,

Happy Baking
