Back in business

Summer has been slow for Now Baking, which is fairly standard in my experience. I've had my on-going weekly order of cookies for the Red Room (David the Aussie hairdresser in Lausanne) and some other orders and that's about it. I haven't minded...we've been busy doing our own thing, plus I bake anyway whether I have orders or not.

But this week it's all changing, and being the end of August/return to school it is eerily predictable. I have an order for Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies (dough only, that's a first...she freezes the dough and only bakes what she needs) tomorrow, an order for 2 dozen Apricot and Coconut Balls for Tuesday (plus David's cookies) and on Wednesday an order for a 4th birthday party - Barbie Cake, Mini Blueberry and Buttermilk Muffins and Fudge Brownie Cookies. Now that it is picking up I'm glad. I enjoy the baking and the pocket money.
