Banana Bread -Recipe #7

Grandma Alice's famous banana bread. This is my absolute favorite banana bread recipe.  I prefer no nuts, others like the chopped nuts. It's sweet, flavorful, heavy like pound cake, and it melts in your mouth. This is my 7th "posted" recipe.  I have a couple orders to fill, so don't worry, I didn't forgot you and I'll make you something soon! My next new recipe will be your surprise! What I'm going to do is change my rating options below, that way, whomever the taste testers may be can just click their rating (I'm looking for feedback). I'm ready for tomorrow, it's not a new recipe but my sis is coming over to make eclairs with me. Good times!

Creating a Successful Business Plan

I'm not certain yet of the whole bakery business yet.  A show that I've became slightly addicted to is the "Cake Boss." It's about an Italian bakery, "Carlo's Bakery" in Hoboken, NJ. It's and older show, but it's got some pretty impressive bakers.  It's definitely a little dramatic because it's a reality show, but none the less, it's reveals what goes on behind the scenes in a bakery.
      One of the things to do before opening a business is research, also writing your own business plan.  Since I don't have any experience in doing so; I'm eventually going to take a $95 course at the local community college, unless I can find a free seminar somewhere.
