my first blog

Ok, where do I start. Well I guess the beginning would be the best place to begin. I got the idea to blog from the movie Julie & Julia. I just finished watching it, and it was wonderful. I am though still unsure why Julia Childs felt it was disrespectful or something to have Julie Powell blog about her. I think it was pure admiration, and total respect. But, people have the right to feel the way the do. And Julia Childs was and will always remain a legend, and genius, master cook. I have always loved watching her shows on cooking, and her books. And now I love watching the new movie about her and Julie Powell. I guess Mrs. Childs just misunderstood, and meant no hard feelings toward Julie, she was just an elderly woman, who worked hard her entire life, and simply did not understand what Julie Powell was trying to do.

Well, do to total respect for them both, and the desire to become better in the art of pastry making and decorating, I am now starting this blog, loving called, "On the road to KupKake Factory & More". It's named this because my business I am starting is also called, "KupKake Factory & More". I hope to be even somewhat as good as Julia or Julie, but just in pastry making. I hope to even open my own bistro, where people can actually come in and purchase and enjoy eating the pastries on site, while sipping coffee, tea, etc. We will have to wait and see.

And yes, I even plan on inlisting the help of family, and a close friend, (friend's name also is Kathy). We are a small family owned and operated business, mostly of women, but, we do have a few men on staff, ha!lol. I hope everyone that reads my blog will like it, and pass on the word.

I can be rached via email at katheestephenson@yahoo.com
or 142 Blue Jay Ln., Mabank, Texas 75156, or simply type in KupKake Factory & More, or On the Road to KupKake Factory & More into the search engine on your web browser, and you will find me. Let me know what you think of my blog/site, and if you want to order any pastries, cupakes, cakes, pies, cookies, petit fours etc. let me know. I can deliver them in person or via mail (U.S.P.S. OR UPS OR FEDEX).

Well I'll close for now, and have fun reading and happy eating.
