Yesterday the P&C at the boys' school held a cake stall at the local Farmers' Market. Success, of course! I was only partly involved, in that I was there from a quarter to eight in the morning until we closed up just before 1pm. And collected all the money (since I somehow got talked into taking on the Treasurer's position). And was up at 4:30am making scones.
Sounds like a lot but it wasn't really. All the other organising was done by a bunch of much more efficient and organised parents!
Something that always surprises me (although I'm starting to get used to it - but must not take it for granted) is the amount the parents at the school pitch in. Only a handful come to the actual meetings once a month but when we put out a call for help we are inundated with offers.
This time we were inundated with delicious home-made baked goods! Yum yum yum.
It was a cold and bleary day. Bucketed down with rain in the first hour or two. And yet the crowds came. And everything was sold.
A friend has called me "the queen of cake stalls". I seem to be involved in a lot of them! Well, who doesn't like cake, huh?
