So the day started off early at 6:50 to be exact when I rolled out of bed and jumped into the shower, I decided to try and look cute for my debut. After I was all ready and yelling at summer to get ready quicker I headed out to the garden for some mint, oregano, and chives.
we arrived on time and got a tiny spot next to Liz, who made AMAZING mint lemonade and sold beet greens. She was super nice and we were fast friends!
We were across the way from Big Jake's mini doughnuts which were amazing too we must have eaten at least 3 dozen. We got to the farmer's market at 815 if you are late (past 830) you forfeit your spot so I was a bit anxious! We got all set and 900 rolled around we didn't sell much in the morning I think I got the mint mixed up because ya it all looked the same, one was labeled chocolate mint and the other spearmint...we don't have spearmint in our garden. They both looked the same anyhow, the chocolate mint sold quickly as did the oregano. I charged only .50 cents a bag, after a while I sold my first bag!
It was one of the first ones and it was sewn really bad! so I only charged a dollar. After that some friends stopped by
The best though were these three little girls who LOVED my bags and all three of them picked one up! They were so excited their mom came over to tell me how happy they were haha
then there was Hayden she used to come to my ward a couple of years ago with her mom and we ran into her there and her momma let me take a few pics of her too so cute!!
THE ULTIMATE TREAT! OM NOM NOM
So here are a few other pics I took without permission hence, no faces... but still cute!
yay! I'm so excited to come by next week! OH and by the way, you've inspired me to make my own bag!
