Bonny’s is a small business which has had a couple of opportunities to expand, but chose to stay small and exclusive. It was born out of a hobby and a passion to make social events memorable. As President of the Modoc County Reading Association, Bonny began holding board meetings before school, and served breakfast to her officers and committee chairs. Next, A. A. U. W. put her in charge of hosting a reception for a retiring member, who had been the County Superintendent of Schools. She found herself quickly assigned to the “Stomach Committee” of each organization she joined. Before she knew it she was catering luncheons for the local library, and end of the year parties for the teachers and staff at a local school district. Bonny made her first wedding cake for her cleaning lady, who had watched her create unique menus and desserts for her friends. One thing led to another, and soon she had several clients for desserts, specialty breads, pastries, and catered affairs.
