the old bakehouse
I’ve been up & running now for nearly 2 years, so I thought I’d add an update to
my ‘About Me’ page! When I envisioned how The Old Bakehouse Cookery School would
develop, I thought I’d be inundated with youngsters; helping them start out on
the road to independence as I saw such a gap in the market. This still continues
to be my driving force and I love watching the ‘penny drop’ when someone with no
knowledge learns the basics & they then believe they can put a meal together.
That still gives me enormous pleasure, however, the side to the business which
has really taken off is the Group Bookings and I’m LOVING it!! Watching friends
laughing together during a Hen party or ‘Special’ birthday party or seeing
family (mums, dads, children, brothers or sisters) working together has been
such a privilege. On the home front, it has been quite a rocky road through 2020
dealing with Covid-19 & all the lockdown restrictions we all endured. My son
graduated in May (sadly without the ceremony) and he has now left home & is
working in Cheltenham. My daughter is currently finishing her 2nd year at
University which hasn’t been the experience she envisaged but she’s made the
most of it. They have both taken on the skills of independent living & I
couldn’t be more proud of their achievements. So, if you have a reason to gather
a group together & you fancy doing something creative with them, give me a call
& I can arrange a great day out for you. Or if you’re looking to get the basics
under your belt as you move to a more independent phase of life, let me help
you.
