Thank y'all so much! I'm really excited to take this step.

In other news - the Farmer's Market was kind of slow today. A lot of foot traffic but not many folks really buying. :/

I did see one of my former teachers. My third grade teacher. She remembered my name without even looking at my business card. I know there are some teachers on here...do y'all have fantastic memory of students or do certain ones stick in your mind easily (for 26 years!)? I wasn't an exceptionally memorable student imo...I was quiet, shy and did my work but that was about it. Something about me stuck in this teacher's mind though...and I guess a few others since as a senior in HS I was awarded a scholarship by my elementary school teachers (it was a teacher's choice scholarship). I don't know...I have a horrible time with remembering people so maybe I just assume that others are the same.

I did have one bad experience at the market that made me want to give someone a piece of my mind. A local business woman (B&B type of business) bought one of my jams and then went to the booth next to me. The vendor at that booth buys my gluten free stuff regularly. Anyway the B&B woman was talking about gluten free stuff to the vendor. The vendor suggested my booth and the B&B lady said that she had tried my stuff before and "it tasted like dirt". WHAT?! Seriously!? I have a ton of repeat customers, my family all loves the stuff and I do have perfectly working taste buds...very discerning taste buds. Dirt?!!! The vendor changed the subject on B&B lady. B&B lady was talking in a whisper so I think she thought I couldn't hear what she said but I heard every word. It was all I could do to stay rooted to my spot and not walk over and say something. Anyone coming to Herdstock will get the opportunity to try my stuff and I beg you to be truthful about it. Dirt? Gah! You can guarantee that I'll never be staying at her B&B!
