I'm flip flopping on what I should do - find another 9-5 office job or "get off the pot" and open an actual brick and mortar establishment? Enough of this shameles...

Pastry chef, writer, and opinionated mouthy broad. My observations from inside the kitchen and from the table. Wednesday, October 8. A Caramel Apple A Day.
