Mundane updates

I'm halfway through A Feast For Crows at this very moment. I revel in that, even though nobody else cares. And you know what? Jaime Lannister, that's what. I'm starting to like the bastard, even as I know that as soon as I love him, he's going to die in some horrible way, painful to behold. Much like in 1984, where they wait to kill you until you love Big Brother, except backwards. I'm onto you, Mr. Martin. I know your ways.

Also, I'm one vendor away from full at the Winter Bazaar. I snagged a couple of KCRF merchants (score!), and have a lot of new faces. That cuts both ways, I think, but I'm hoping it'll help our bottom line in the end. We will see, oh yes, we will see. Still, last year we had 23 vendors, and this year we're closer to 30, so it's got to do some good somewhere. The $1000 profit this event typically brings in is starting to look a little pale compared to our $850 garage sale (!), but I've cut the expense way down this year, and added vendors, so hopefully we'll do something closer to $1500 profit. One can hope, I suppose.

I can definitely squeeze you in. I'm not sure about anybody further. I must consult The Map (which is at home) and see. I'll let you know.
Who did you have in mind?

I was going to poke the Zum people. Just cause I *really* want them there. If not, no big. I will poke them harder and sooner next year. I think they were confused about my initial request. They *donate* to non-profits and I think they confused my initial attemts as a request for money and not for them to sell stuff. No big if we have the spaces filled... that's the important thing... :-)

Oh ah. Actually, as fabulous as they are, I have a couple of folks already (local crafters) with soaps and bath stuff. I don't want to step on them, you know?

On the other hand, if Zum wants to donate money, or product, we'd not say no to that, would we, darlings?

I know *I* wouldn't. If we want to go that route, we have to submitt an application *early*

As for donating stuff to sell... I am not sure how thier deal works. I will have to talk to them.
