me = bad blogger . . .

sigh . . . to say it has been busy is certainly an understatement!

since i last wrote, sleep has been reduced (as well as internet time) and the biz has made a giant step forward :)

back in february, i applied to the portland farmers market. soon after i lost my job, i found out that the market was full so i applied to beaverton . . . somehow (esp. as a first-year vendor) i got in on an on-call basis . . . this was fabulous news, but not much of a reality util may arrived . . . then it was all about logistics!

ok- so i usually enjoy logistics - and all the gory details that come with it- this time, however, they almost got the better of me . . . from pricing and packaging to labels, tags, all of the designs and farmers market booth set-up . . . phew!

as it is tuesday, how did the market go? it went ok . . . pretty good, really . . . sure i didn't sell out- but in many ways that is ok as i spent 2 weeks making everything - and i'm not sure i could maintain that schedule the entire season- one thing i'll say is that many of our friends stopped by to say hi- and that was fab! and, i wouldn't have been able to do it without my hubby- he helped with money, errands and the frequent chuckles :) how lucky i am to have such a supportive partner in my life! and in this adventure!

now it's time to catch up at home (yup - that laundry i started 2 weeks ago needs put away) and get ready for a visitor! oh- and back to my jogging :)

i hope to continue to update about various things and biz updates, too (hopefully with pics!) - but it likely won't be as frequent as many bloggers - guess i'm more of a people person - but for those peeps not here with me - i'm still here :)
