Remember when I said the other day that I hoped we weren’t getting in over our heads?
I obviously forgot to find some wood to knock on when I wrote that.
Harry took a few nice sparkly pre-order sign up sheets for baked goods with him to work today. He called me at 8am to tell me he’d filled up 3 pages and had made more copies. He called me at 10am to tell me he’d hit up another building down the way (still part of his company) just for good measure.
He took 51 orders from 36 people.
We tallied up orders over the phone on his lunch break. Next week, I’ll be making roughly:
3-4 batches of pumpkin chocolate chip cookies (approx. 6 dozen cookies per batch);
4 batches of oatmeal raisin cookies (approx. 4 dozen cookies per batch); and
6-8 batches of blonde brownies (approx. 3 dozen brownies per batch).
I think it’s a really good thing NaBloPoMo is over tomorrow.
Wow Jen- is this your new full time job, Ha! Sounds like fun.
Sounds like you had a fun, if not manic month full of writing! I’ve seen a few folks melt down under the pressure of this challenge, but a marathon writing session is good for the soul once a year or so. Now comes the next fun part… sorting through it all to see where you want to go next! Happy writing and have a terrific weekend!

[...] If you’ll remember my horror the other day regarding our baking endeavor, you know what the title of this entry is about. (Hey, some bloggers Blog Through Birth, and I don’t have anything that pressing going on, so I’m working with what I have.) I decided to blog this insanity to keep myself in the habit of posting. Above, you can see all the goodies assembled neatly. [...]
