Sold out!



Naomi had promised to work the Lake Forest Park Farmer's Market today.  I went down to help her.  It's less than a mile away and they humor me.  Warm muggy day here in Seattle.  Naomi can only fit one very large cooler in her car.  I went down and made change and sometimes handed out the popsicles.

The shot above is a stock photo on Yelp.  Probably Dave, Megan's dad.

Even before noon we were selling at a heavy clip.  No down time.  We had some problem with the clasp of the cooler.  I even figured out how to take a picture on my phone and send it to Dennis.  He came down and fixed it and brought a chair for me.

Some other friends came down but I could hardly talk to them because we were selling selling.  Then we started running out of flavors.  Lines get longer.  We're running out more.  Finally we have only 3 flavors.  Then only one, who wants Kona Coffee?  Me, me, me.

Then we were sold out, not a single popsicle left.  Sold out!  It's not even 2 pm; market runs for another hour.

People come by, "What?  No popsicles???"  A market person came by "Nicely done," he says.

No more popsicles, sold out, never happened to me before.
