Emily's School Food Fair


This morning was Emily's school food fair. We participated in the food fair by selling my HOMEMADE muffins, butter and choclate cakes. I spent the whole Saturday afternoon baking a total of 24 muffins and 2 trays of cakes. A friend of mine was kind enough to come over to help me with the muffins.


When we reached the school in the morning, there were already so many visitors. Many stalls were setup with so many varieties of food, ranging from Pizzas to herbal eggs, all prepared by parents. We also have many competitors selling cakes and muffins. I quickly arranged our food in a designated corner with the rest of Emily's classmates. In the beginning, our sales were poor, so Emily and I decided to put our cakes and muffins in a tray and try to approach the crowd of people to buy instead of standing at the stall waiting for customers. Our sales got better afterthat, and we finished selling everything after about 2.5 hours. Not an easy tasks though, having to put up big smiles with the hope that the person we approach will buy :). Overall it was a good experience.
