A bakery. I'd be the main baker and I'd hire people to bake with me. It would be a cute little cafe where people could sit with their laptops and enjoy coffee and pie.

a TRUE NY deli down here in GA

DH has always wanted to a specialty livery service with retro cars (not the classy ones, more like the retro/cheesy ones like VW)
and aim it at teens/college kids making it an alternative to limos

A children's bookshop.... like meg Ryan's character in "You've Got Mail." I would have story time and activities as well as selling books and educational toys.




I love that movie and totally agree -- that would be a dream.

I have toyed with the idea of opening a cafe/bookshop. It would cater to the stroller crowd. We would do readings of children's books, siminars on things like planning for college etc. and we would sell homemade organic babyfood along with salads, sandwiches, quiche and sweets.

I already do it as a side business from my house from April to October, but I would love to open a car detailing shop. I would do car detailing, Oil Changes, and stereo systems etc...

Scott - that is also my S/O's dream, you two could work together, especially since we are both in the same town!
