Well, the girls & I did our first Farmer's Market session. We baked Thursday evening and Friday afternoon & evening. We were quite tired by the time we were done, but satisfied with the results of our baking frenzy. We started out with a small amount because we just did not know what to expect. We sold 7 out of 10 dozen cookies, 2 out of 4 banana bread loaves, 3 out of 4 coffee cakes, & 1 out of 4 pies. The day was a beautiful day (70s w/a breeze) and we met many fine people. We were a bit disappointed with our sales but we ended up at the end of the line of vendors/sellers and were told that it was a very slow day. So, we have revamped a few of our plans: set up earlier, pass out samples, & decorate/display a bit differently. Hopefully, people will come to like our products and the amount of people will increase during market hours. If not, I will be gaining instead of losing weight this summer. :( At any rate, my girls shouldn't have much opportunity to say they are bored this summer. :)
