This weekend, we leveraged the additional traffic in the neighborhood for some old-fashioned entrepreneur-ism in the form of a kettle corn stand. "50¢ Kettle Corn" reads the sign that Mary Grace made all by herself!
The kids had a great time manning the stand (Mary Grace dressed in her Arial princess costume) while Anne and I observed from the front porch. Most of our customers were neighbors, but some were friendly strangers, like the guy that gave Mary Grace a $1 tip, or the folks who bought 3 bags (exhausting all our inventory and forcing Daddy back to the kitchen to make more).
Mary Grace was the sales person and accounts receivable and William was in product fulfillment and the treasurer.
They made over $11, of which the majority was spent the next day at the Park Avenue Festival on jewelry and kids inflatable "rides".
What a fun Park Ave Fest weekend we had!
