Fortunate Friday

March 5, 2011 by Jenn

Isn’t it interesting how life is going in one direction one day, and then you suddenly see yourself heading in a different one?  I feel this has happened with the evolution of my blog.

I started Cookies, Cupcakes, and Cardio in October of 2010 (it’s just an infant!) and I wanted to share my love for baking, and combine it with the healthy lifestyle choice of spinning (and other cardio).  I love my job teaching at the gym, and I appreciate each and every person that come to my classes.  Lately, posting cardio components has dwindled away . . . to nothingness 🙁  sorry.  I will get back to it this weekend!

I am fortunate that people are still reading my blog despite the lack of recent cardio components!

I have found myself down the path of altering my blog.  I love blogging, but starting a business in a small town, I am mixed about sharing complete recipes!  What if my “competition” reads my recipes, and “steals” them?  Is that serious concern?  I have no idea!  I have always been skeptical of others, not necessarily a trusting person, and I don’t know what to do about sharing completed recipes.

Upon many thoughts about this, I have decided to offer pictorial sessions of my baking and share recipes that are not for sale by JJ’s Custom Cakery.  I hope that this doesn’t annoy too many people!  If it does, please email me, and I will send you the recipe that you are looking for.  I started this blog to share and learn, and I want that to continue that in some way.

I am fortunate that I have gradually found myself going down a road I never thought I’d be on.

I am fortunate that I have a dilemma regarding what to do regarding sharing recipes, because it means I have started out successfully!
