Business 101

This morning I was busy doing laundry, preparing for our annual trip to Lake Powell, when I noticed my daughter unusually coming in and out of the front door multiple times.  When I asked her what she was doing I saw a big brown bag full of produce in her arms. "Oh...nothing mom, we are just playing." The girls have a playroom full of toys and plastic produce so I knew something was up.  I didn't fall for it.  

That's when I saw this sign ...

  
My daughter decided to set up a produce stand and sell our fruits and veggies to our neighbors.  I told the girls at breakfast that we needed to "eat" up our food in the refrigerator before we leave for our vacation.  This wasn't necessarily what I had in mind.  I'm pretty sure I paid more than .10 cents each... so my neighbors that bought the produce got a great deal!  I think it is time to include Business 101 into our curriculum.  That said, I have to admire my daughters ambition.  She did make a dollar and is now motivated to sell more.  We either need to raise our prices or grow a garden!
