Congratulations! It appears that you will always create, and do we really have room to keep everything we create? As they always say, ‘it’s the journey’.

Thanks for this, I feel a bit better about sometimes wanting to sell mine!

Mouse – good luck to you too in this next phase of your life! I’m a firm believer in things happening for a reason so hopefully your future endeavours will prove to be fruitful, challenging, and provide a better life balance. Best of luck!

Its really interesting to read your blog as I have just closed my food production business (manufacturing ice cream) unfortunately I couldn’t find a buyer and just ceased trading as it was taking a huge toll on my family life, but it does leave a large whole in your life! Good luck to you and all your future endeavours.

You’ll keep “reaching for those cookies”. It’s in your genes. I recall Steve Jobs’ Stanford University speech so keep thinking “non-linearly”. All that you’re doing in the food space, are variations on a common theme, and your blog will continue to thrive as you have nearly 3000 followers (and growing) who look forward to gaining insights and learning from the experience of others. Your a part of a “food entrepreneur” family. Just keep doing what you’ve been doing.

Thanks Phoebe – really appreciate it. It’s a bit sad for me too but I do know I’ll be back in the kitchen before too long. I’m already pestering my better half with “what about this idea?”

looking forward to meeting the new gal but will be sad that you are …well, happy for you that you are moving on to new adventures (but still a bit sad). I love what you do and in a crazy place where tiny business owners, like me, are so hungry to make things happen it was nice to always come back to “you” for inspiration and know what is on trend. best wishes in all things!
