stop by the single, no-frills table--the one NOT overflowing with fresh fruits and vegetables--the one that's sponsored by Angel Baked Cookies, the program initiated by North Grand Neighborhood Services designed to teach area youths how to market and operate a small business.
The day I wandered past, unbeknown to me, the kids were practicing their sales pitch. It was smooth, unobtrusive, and effective. I promised I would spread the word. You'll find those kids every Saturday at the Clayton Farmer's Market venturing out--some boldly, some shyly--to spread the word about their little business...and hopefully sell you a cookie or two.
I liked the kids, I liked the cause, I liked the cookies...a buck apiece or, as I was enthusiastically told, "only $7 for a dozen." -- George Mahe
