bmk: happy birthday, anna

This is why I adore my job!
I spent years in corporate finance and it was good. Not great, but good. It’s great for other people, but it took me a bit to figure out that it was never my passion. I liked being good at it, but I wanted to be great at something else. I just didn’t know what….
And then B opened this Kitchen and all my wildest dreams came true (you’re welcome for the Napoleon Dynamite reference). I get to manage calendars, and plan parties, and bake, and help kids bake and cook, and then maintain our books, and pay taxes and do some marketing and pretty much a little bit of everything. I get to do everything that I like and a few things that I didn’t even know that I would like and a few things that I don’t like and I still have to do a few things that I hate. And it is GREAT!
I should also note I have great friends who are willing to take a chance on us. We hosted a birthday party for a friend’s daughter and they did an amazing job. The girls took their cupcake wars party very seriously and it was fun. AND I have a really, really good family. Top notch, really. My dad and Melissa were visiting and spent the day with the girls so we could throw this party. I’m going to stop thinking about how lucky I am for all these stars to align and I am just going to be so very, very thankful. 
Cupcake wars party rocks!!!
