I have never been involved with a market on a Sunday so this was my first time. Not sure how I felt about it as Sunday "trading" is frowned upon by some, especially Christians. Anyway...I really enjoyed the experience and had a nice chat with the the (younger) female stall holder, next to me. We got talking about "trying to make ends meet" etc and it was really nice to encourage her to persevere in her attempts to grow her own veggies and make food from scratch, including preserving and selling items at markets. She said she lived 15 minutes out of town and work in a cafe as a chef. Her hope was to be more creative so I hope our conversation inspired her to make the time to do the things she hope to.
I didn't sell as many soaps as yesterday but am happy to have made a few sales. I think I will go up a few times before deciding whether or not to make it a regular market day or not. next time I go there I must remember to take the camera so I can get a few photos. :-)
