I fix myself eggs and toasts and quickly munch on them before heading off to the bakery.
I usually get here a good 3-4 hours before opening time (which is at 9am) to bake. Everyday I like to try new recipes and put out different things than the day before, I've also recently started taking custom orders.
Today I'm making strawberry vanilla cupcakes, banana nut muffins and various pies.
I set my timer for 4 hours so I remember when to officially open although its rare that I get customers this early, they usually start coming in around 11 but none the less I open early just in case.
Two hours pass and I just finished making the cupcakes and pies, now I just need to make the muffins. I open the large fridge door searching for the bananas only to realize that we don't have any left "oh shit" I mumble to myself.
I quickly grab my keys and lock up the store without even thinking to take my apron off, I probably look stupid right now jogging to the market with flour on my nose and a pink apron with a cupcake on it but oh well.
I'm stopped in my tracks when I spot one of the most handsome men I've ever seen, he's in a construction workers uniform, tall, dark hair, beautiful hazel eyes and so muscular that I'm sure just his bicep is the size of my head.
I resist the urge not to drool
The man must feel a pair of eyes on him because he turns facing me, eyes travelling up and down my body
When his eyes meet mine he shoots me with a smile and oh man does it go straight to my heart
I snap out of it and remember not only what I'm wearing but that I need to grab that banana, I mean those bananas... Yeah
I make it to the store and am back in the shop, face still flushed
I convince myself that he's probably taken or that he wont be interested in me
Okay, I have to focus and get back to work
I use my perfected banana nut recipe and start baking, luckily I left the easiest thing for last so running to the store really wasn't much of an inconvenience
By the time my alarm rings everything is ready and set up where it should be
I take a step back and smile contently as I flip the the sign from closed to open
