It's Show Time!
Things have been especially busy this summer with my show schedule so far. I'm not used to doing
a weekly "show" (Farmer's Market) plus all the other ones scheduled. It's a lot of hauling things
around, unpacking and packing things back up.
Last week was one of my favorite shows to do, the Lemonade
Fest in St. Cloud, Minnesota. It's usually a gorgeous day on the campus of St. Cloud State University where we get
to set up under huge shade trees and take in the smells (cheese curds, mini donuts, kettle corn), sights (lots of people)
and sounds (orchestra) of the day. It's a lot of fun.
Part of the fun is seeing old customers returning
for more soap! I had several people stop by this year asking for their favorite soaps and stocking up with more.
And of course we went through a lot of free samples!
I figured it was time to put a face to the name, so we had someone take a picture of Taylor and I, all set up and ready for
the day. She's usually too busy to help much these days, but made sure she was available for this one, 'cause
it's one of her favorite festivals too.
In a few weeks my husband gets to help me in Anoka at the River Fest.
And I think he actually enjoys that too (although I don't have a special t-shirt for him!).
