One of my friends hosted my first show last night. There were six people there, and I demo'd the Chocolate Pecan Lattice Tart.

I wasn't anywhere near perfect, but I think everybody had a good time! As of now, the show total is $615, too, which makes me happy. No bookings from it (yet!), but one guest is interested in talking more about the opportunity, so we'll see!

It is so much fun to talk about something you really love. I really think I am going to enjoy this job!
