Feedback for a new theme and layout

i went back into the archives to read my first post cos a friend commented on it and i felt reading against the black background wasnt so easy on the eyes. So this is what i changed it to for a quick fix, but I’d really appreciate the feedback from you my readers. What do you think? should i go back to darker? or keep it lighter? and anyone out there with suggestions on a theme/ background etc for this blog, please leave your thoughts in the comments section.

Homemade Cakes and Muffins in Bangalore….

what does it take to print piece of paper and send it around?? lots of courage and double the optimism and hope……Allow me to tell you a a story…

i have this friend…J…. fiesty…go getter…hardworking…and currently a SAHM….she’s come far from where she started….she’s one of those people you look at and know she’ll get the job done….she has dreams and aspirations… maybe not about building a fortune 500 firm, but realistic ones…inspired by successes around her…. to do something interesting and satisfying…. that’s all…..then why J and blues in the same line?

she’s been on a roller coaster these past few months…. trying to figure out how she can do something productive with her time and yet be a sahm…..Something that gives one a sense of fulfillment …..See, the thing with being financially independent from a young age is, even if you are in a secure relationship, you cant be “dependent” (for want of a better word) it pricks…and doesnt ever leave your head….

we’ve spent a lot of airtime talking….i am a couple of years ahead of her in this “joblessness” business… so i think we relate well with each other and i know what she’s going through…..we share what we’re feeling….and mostly laugh at how silly we’re being ….. when she tells me…she has many plans but doesnt know where to begin….its dejavu for me…..and viceversa…..

after many months, J has taken a huge step forward…. she’s launched a home venture….she’s a talented baker…so why not put that to use… She’s making her hobby and passion into a home based business. Homemade Cakes and Muffins from the oven of Sinful Indulgence

i know its a huge step for her…. i know how much its taken for her to actually print out those pamphlets and make a start…. we’re all so afraid of failing….of looking like a fool when we fall….so despite all the starting blues you had… you did it babe….this was the most important step.

So ladies and gentlemen, if you are looking for homemade cakes and muffins in Bangalore, please call J on 09611102160, or dash her a few lines on jayashree(dot)mudaliar(at)gmail(dot)com. you will surely be completely dazzled by the array of goodies she has to offer…….

As for J….i know she’s going to make a huge success of Sinful Indulgence …. dear readers, friends and family…. please do join me in cheering her on!!
