Expansion!

During the course of a normal week I wear a number of different hats, like most of us I’m sure. There’s the Macmillan support group that I take part in who meet to knit woolly hats for sailors or little jumpers for a local charity and lap blankets for the Hospice too. I need time to clean the house and tend the garden, but on two other days I help out at the local Emporium and this is where Cake Friday originated. For at least two years I’ve made cake for them and several of the shopkeepers at that end of the town and this week their numbers expanded as two new shops are opening. My challenge is going to be deciding just what to make for them as their numbers continue to grow. What this means is that we have few empty shops and in the current economic climate I’m pleased to see them thrive. It’s going to be double quantities of cake from now on!
