We woke up to a dull, sunless, wet morning. Goodies in hand, and hope in our hearts, we set out in Pia’s car from our homes in Queens to the big city! As we got there we realized, it was no longer chilly but very cold and the raindrops got bigger all the time. We were between 88th and 89th streets and we had all of 6 or 8 stores on our block…because most vendors decided not to set up at all!

Yup, we had never been to a street fair where vendors who have already put down payment for stalls, decided not to set up. As we went along, the wind got worse and the Clearview Festivals guys came along to say that the winds were to get worse and to check whether we were adequately reinforced. A large pumpkin did it for us. We were safe under our sturdy tent.

At 11:30 a.m. I was ready to go back home (because traffic was slow and more importantly, I was dressed for 45 degree F and it had already dropped to 36 degree F). But thankfully, traffic did pick up and we ended up staying till 5:00 p.m. Also, did a decent bit of business.

Products that sold out were: Pandan and Chocolate Marshmallows, Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingerbread on a stick and the Cheesecake with Lemon Curd and Sponge Cake base.
The brownies did well, as always! They are becoming a solid cash cow.
The winner in the ‘Sooo Cute!’ product category was the Cupcake in a Jar

Many people came out to encourage the ‘brave’ few who set up their stalls. Others were happy have our samples that put smiles on their faces in the bad weather! Thank you so much for stopping by! It did put a bright spot in our day.

Many persons asked us about where we will be next, the answer is Union Square. Watch out for the bright pink banner. Hope to see you there!
