There’s still time to make something special for your loved one/s. If you haven’t done so already, try some spritz cookies, classic chocolate chip cookies or (best of all) handmade peanut butter truffles. You’ll be glad you did!

Okay folks, let cut to the chase. It’s 2010. I have been “at home” the past decade. And although I’ve been working harder than I ever have for no actual pay, the time has come to resume gainful employment. Due to our temperamental and sadly inadequate oven, my baking business is on hold until I can earn enough to replace it. The good news? I am available for hire.

I have been looking for some weeks now. Reading the classifieds, pouring through listings online. I have made inquiries, but no luck yet. Yes, I know. The economy is really bad. There aren’t a lot of places looking to hire anyone, let alone someone who’s been out of the professional labor force the past ten years. But I will not be discouraged.

My experiences & qualifications include:

• I have a degree in business administration and a masters in economics.
• I have excellent financial management skills.
• For five years I ran a successful business on eBay.
• This year I sold my own house.
• 9 months ago, I started a commercial baking business built on the recipes I created and published through my low sodium website The Daily Dish.
• I am a prolific & skilled writer with a passion for photography.
• I am creative, resourceful and practical. I get the job done.

I am looking for an opportunity to parlay my skills into paid employment. Email me for a copy of my resume or for more information.

Thanks for reading and feel free to pass this on.

Sometimes things just magically fall into place. In the past three weeks, I have done more than settle into a new city and apartment. I’ve also managed to land myself a sweet new job. And by sweet, I mean SWEET - as in BAKING. My very own sticky buns for a bakery around the corner. As the recipe itself came to me in a dream, and this is for me a dream job, you can imagine my state of mind right now. A little bit country, a little bit rock-n-roll. And a whole lot of WOW.

Three months ago, if you’d told me I’d be living in Portland, walking my kids to school, and baking for a living, I’d have told you you were crazy. But here I am. The first time we visited - wwaaaaayyy back in February - a sign greeted us at the border.

Who would have known>?
