Another week and more reasons 2B cheerful. I'm not mentioning the elections as all we know for sure is that, at the moment, nothing is for sure. As usual I'm joining the R2BC linky which is over at Becky's Lakes Single Mum for the month of June.

Supper At School
They had a Supper at School Shuk at DD's school to raise money for the end of year events. DD's class made desserts in cups. I was a bit tardy in seeing the list for contributions - I only got there 20 minutes after it'd been sent. Thus I missed the disposable tablecloths and plastic spoons options. I was also too late for the easy jellies. I was drawn to the chocolate mousse but raw eggs in 30 degree heat, not to mention the expense and the time involved..... I reinterpreted it as instant pudding and we made 20 cups of chocolate, butterscotch, and vanilla puddings. We added sprinkles.
DD wanted to take a tray of desserts out into the field and try to get some passing trade. I could have told her that selling is a thankless task. I'm useless at it. After a long time and only two sales she handed the tray to her friend who promptly sold the lot in about three minutes. *sigh* We have other talents.

Blog Ranking
I've been placed 57 in the Top 100 Single Moms Blogs list. I don't remember submiting my blog but I'm chuffed it was picked up anyway and placed at number 57.
In the tots 100 I also went up last month although I'm still in the 1200 range. There'll be a party when I break the top 1000 barrier again.

The supper at school sounds fun but not the selling part, I'm with you and don't really like to do that. Have a fun weekend, Mich x
ReplyDeleteIt was sort of fun and sort of just another way to get money out of us. #cynicalmoi?
DeleteThose desserts look so pretty - I would be no good at selling them either.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your blog rankings and onwards and upwards once again I hope xx
I think you need to be doing far more technical things to succeed in the ranking game. I'm still playing by the old rules so not much chance of making back into the top 500.
DeleteCongrats on the nomination, that's fabulous news! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. I think they just dug out 100 single parent posts for the first list. Next month will be more interesting.
