First they tried rhino noses (those propeller things from the trees). They were announcing their wares to passerbys. Most people completely ignored them, and I felt so sad for them. (They were only charging a penny for two)!
When Myles came home from work, I alerted him. They were so excited to finally have their first customer! Although, when Carly came in she said, "Dad, you were our only customer, and you are a relative!"
The next day, they decided to sell painted rocks. They actually got a few takers.
I remember loving to sell things as a kid, too. My best friend and I would make yarn bracelets, etc. One time, I gave her a bunch of my toys to sell at her garage sale. At the time, I was so excited about making money. When my mom found out, she wasn't too happy. I still miss that Snoopy Doll with all the cute outfits. Someone got a really good deal, I'm sure!

I remember selling things at the neighborhood pool. I really did think that one day I would strike it rich...never did but that's okay. :)
Oh Man! I wish we'd have known there was a rhino nose sale going on. We are definitely in the market.
Glad to hear that business is picking up a bit. Tell the girls not to get too down . . .we are in a recession you know. : )
