Life is short. Eat dessert first!

Whether I'm creating specialty cupcakes for a baby shower, making hundreds of mini desserts for a Yelp event, or simply baking some cookies for friends - I absoloutely adore desserts!  Sugar? Yes! Flour? Oh yeh! Chocolate? Gimme, gimme! 

Pastries Not Potatoes is not only a blog, but my tiny little dessert only catering company as well.  I've been in the food business for more than ten years and I can't think of anything better than to share my love of food with not only Chicago, but the world!

    Guilty Pleasure.

    DateMonday, February 18, 2008 at 09:08PM

    People often ask me if I do alot of baking at home "for fun, in my free time", or what my favorite dessert is...

    The truth is, I almost never eat sweets at home after being around them all day and tasting a variety of different products during my eight to twelve hour days in the kitchen.

    However, there is one guilty pleasure that I have that has nothing at all to do with food...celebrity gossip.  Call me crazy, and it's mindless reading but I find it an awesome escape from my life.  So, much to my surprise when this popped up on one of the websites that I frequent.

    It just goes to show you, don't always believe everything you see!
