I Heard That! The Sun-Reporter Lifestyles, Thursday, May 24, 2007 It's A JOY to support young enterprising women who are doing something positive to enhance their lives! MS. YVONNE HINES is one such lady who made her DREAM COME TRUE! She has made a POSITIVE IMPACT to the newly redeveloped business community on the Bayview Third Street corridor. Yvonne was fortunate to obtain a Small business Loan, opened "PRALINES by YVONNE," there in a neat small retail space next door to the Offices for Justice office, where she sells homemade pecan candy and desserts - her Sweet Potato and Pecan Pie recipe is DELICIOUS!!! OUT OF SIGHT!!! (Shared a few sampling of pies with sweet-tooth FLOYD GLENN of DOGLEG Golf shop). The shop is culturally gorgeous - exterior painted a dark green. To think, Yvonne started baking in her grandmother's kitchen - the late VERMELL HINES taught her well and PASSED THE TORCH! A member of Providence Baptist Church on 3rd-Street, where Yvonne gained her fame selling soulful goodies from the back of her care; understand after morning service church folks couldn't wait to buy their favorite sweets! Her Baking came to the Attention of STATE SENATOR CAROLE MIGDEN! Last Friday afternoon Yvonne planned a small RECEPTION inviting a few supporters and family members to b on had when the SENATOR would visit the shop, and PRESENT HER WITH A PROCLAMATION in recognition of her entrepreneurial accomplishment! AND how I happened to be in the nix to capture the happy and significant moment in support of this young lady I've known since her grammar school days in the INGLESIDE neighborhood. UNFORTUNATELY SENATOR MIGDEN DID NOT MAKE THE SCENE! Everyone was DISAPPOINTED when announced SENATOR MIGDEN was delayed in traffic when traveling from Sacrament (later that evening it was reported on the NEWS Migden was involved in an accident. A representative from the Senator's office did the honors. Among well-wishers there to celebrate with Yvonne were family members, friends, supporters, and Small business officials. Yvonne's proud family...of course NITA HINES UNOFFICIAL: publicist and Yvonne's Aunt. |
