Mom has a booth at the farmer’s market, and it’s quite popular with the young crowd in the area.
- There is a university where my Mom lives, and the students like the farmer’s market.
When school is in session, they come out in droves to hang out, buy a few supplies, and eat. My Mom has a booth where she sells homemade treats! She was a pastry chef for various years before she retired to take care of dad. She’d be home baking while caring for him, and sell her treats to the neighbors and their friends. After dad passed away, I encouraged Mom to get a booth at the farmer’s market. This would get her out of the house, and give her purpose. At first, she was hesitant, so I made sure to be with her during the days when she set up her booth. Then, slowly she began getting close with the college crowd, and now they flock to her booth. We also do a YouTube channel and this has led to even more success for his pastry business. Last week, I was free from work so I went home to help Mom with a big order. She was in the living room when I arrived and was sweating so much. The cooling system was on, but the home still felt so warm given that the ovens were running. I asked Mom about the exhausting a/c in the home and she said he wanted to take care of it. However, she was so busy and always seemed to push it to a later date. I knew of a local Heating and A/C supplier offering the same day service so I phoned them. They sent someone to the home the next day and she told us the unit was too old and it was time for a replacement.
