Need ideas for decorating my home entrance?
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Addy asked:
Hi. I need to redecorate an area right in front of my home’s main entrance, which is actually the back side of the stairs to the second floor. (My finances are not so good lately so I have to do it myself.) Its an “L”-shaped area that used to have a fountain surrounded by artificial plants and river rocks. It was getting old and ugly and I took everything out, because it is the first thing you see when you come into my house. I need something that does not need or is low maintenance. Any ideas or sites that I could visit are welcome. Thanks.

Home cake decorating business: Illegal in many states, but people seem to still do it? How, why?

I would love to start a home-based cake decorating/bakery out of my home since I can’t afford a store. I discovered running one is illegal here. But I come across a few people who whip out their cake portfolios and try to sell you their services anyway. I’d like to make birthday cakes for maybe friends of friends and just have them pass the word around that I can bake custom cakes. Would you still do it and try to keep it low-key or just forget your dream?
The reason it’s illegal in GA is because it is food, and that they will then require a seperate building w/ a commercial kitchen, then inspect it. But I have ran across several women in the past who just do this out of their own home anyway.
