Local Flavor
Local Flavor was a street food festival in a parking lot near Civic Center. I rolled in with a suit case full of bread and set up my stand. Other vendors sold things like jam, marmalade, sweet parfait desert, dumplings, Indian food, pulled pork, egg rolls, and other hearty yummy food. I was the only one selling bread, and it would have been
People were extremely friendly and I sold about half of my stuff. Which is okay, didn't make too much of a profit, but I didn't exactly lose money either. At the end, Kathy told me that she'll go and sell my left over stuff at another food event today (Sunday). I think she wants to see if I can sell my stuff at this lady's store. How awesome that Kathy wants to arrange that for me.
For breakfast this morning, I woke up and sliced a couple of slices of the honey-wheat-raisin-sunflower-seeds and made an open face sandwich with avocado and some lettuce sprinkled with old bay seasoning. It was really yummy, and I think I really did do a good job on the wheat. (I got tipped from my mom about how to make the wheat rise more - add honey)
What I made:Cheddar Cheese onion roll/loaf
Honey wheat raisin sunflower seeds roll/loaf
Sweet potato onion rosemary loaf
I sold out on the Sweet Potato Onion rosemary loaf, and the Cheddar Cheese onion rolls were also a big hit. I think my brown bag packaging was good too. I love my little printer that can. You can pretty much stick anything in it, and it'll shoot something out.
I would want to do more of these. I figured, it's a great way to meet people and get some sunshine. I let people know that my day job is a designer. Dontay, who had the pulled yummy pork stand next to me said that him and his buddy were working on a restaurant, and may need some design assistance. Card exchange. Yay!
