PERSON, PLACE OR THING WITH STEPH DEROSA >>>
Thing: Sweet Tiers Cakes
Made by: Shannon Smith
With: Love
Because: You can't pay her
This is all: A passion
She simply: Loves to make cakes
Yielding results of: Amazing cakes
Yes, they are: Amazing cakes
One more time: AMAZING CAKES
We've all thought it. I know I have. You love a certain craft or hobby and think to yourself, "I should do this as a business!" Your friends ooh and ahh at your hamburger/cupcake/auto-repair awesomeness all the while slowly convincing you it should be done for money.
"You could be rich! Be your own boss! Do what you love!"
Friends chant this from a distance, promising they'll be your loyal customers.
Eventually, with courage in hand, you begin your hamburger/cupcake/auto-repair business only to invest your entire savings into a venture that strips you of all the passion you once had for hamburgers/cupcakes/auto repair.
Shannon Smith, amazing cake-maker extraordinaire, knows better than to take money for her cakes. There'll be no business venture for her. She believes in keeping the passion alive.
Only working through favors and a quasi-bartering system, Smith will take cake orders in exchange for things she needs.
