Maiden Voyage

Holy moses, Tango Cakes made its first sale today!

Yeah. About 2 weeks after I joked, "HA! I made a dozen cupcakes all by myself! I should start a business named TangoCakes!"

*insert nervous dry heaving here*

The lady I work for is going to a big neighborhood block party Friday night and has asked me to make her some cupcakes. A dozen lemon ones...and a dozen chocolate raspberry ones.

Um, hi...I've never made either of those. UHM, HI. I've only made like a handful of cupcakes in my whole entire life!

PFFFFT!! Man, what have I gotten myself into?

And? As if that wasn't crazy enough? I'm putting a few Tango Cakes business cards into the cake boxes....ya know, in case any of the dozens of richy rich people there want to hire a cupcake business that has no idea what it's doing. I mean, honestly.

Anyone want to come hold my hand while I pretend to know how to bake cupcakes for pay?

*heave*

Wow! All I did was ask what you do with all the stuff you bake! You didn't have to go and start selling all the goods!

Congrats tho. :)
