I didn’t have enough money to buy lots of ready-made food, so I made my own.”The surprise was a huge success and Vanessa was surprised when people kept asking her “Who prepared all this delicious food?” At the end of the party, a friend asked her if she would cook for his mother’s birthday party. Vanessa said: “He offered me money, but I wouldn’t take money from a friend. I just said I’d do it.”The next party Vanessa cooked for went equally well, and by the end of that one, Vanessa had three more bookings for parties over the next month. She said: “By then I realized I was going to have to start charging some money for my services. At the beginning, though, I only asked for a small amount to cover the ingredients I used.”Since these early days, Vanessa hasn’t stopped. She’s now busy every weekend, cooking for parties. “I love it”, she says “… and I feel so lucky that my hobby is helping me earn money. I’m going to use the money to help me to go to college—to study courses of catering! 3.
