Some say that entrepreneurs are made, and some say that they are born.
I was born an entrepreneur. One of my favorite pastimes that I remember
as a little girl was sitting at the kitchen table watching momma cook.
She always took her time and she seemed to enjoy chopping, stirring
and tasting. I guess that's where I got it from, when I cook at home
I like to put on some music and something good to sip on and I am
ready to go.
I remember getting up early on Saturday mornings to cook breakfast
for the family. My feelings were hurt when my brother didn't appreciate
my homemade red syrup and pink pancakes...Didn't he know that I was
being creative?
"
Momma please can I cook dinner tonight?" My mother would finally
give in and let me cook dinner sometimes on Friday and Saturday
nights...it was usually something easy like chili dogs, hamburgers
or tacos. Sometimes
I would answer the phone "Pam's Kitchen"...who knew.
Through the years of school and work I carried many desires but one
dream and that was to have my own business and since cobblers were
my favorite dessert why not a cobbler shop. I loved making people
smile when they tasted my cobblers.
It's not easy starting a business with less than $1000...but it
can be done:-) All I knew was that I had a dream and it was going
to happen...I
could see the people standing in line and the cobblers coming out
of the oven...but I didn't see the long hours that I had to put
in to make it happen. With the support of family and the encouragement
of friends...here I am 19 years later...still baking memories...If
I had a dollar for everyone that said "This taste like my Grandmothers
cobbler". |
