Lemonade Stand

"Curious George" and "Sid the Science Kid" keep us really busy. Charlie wants to do everything that George and Sid do on television. Most recently, we made homemade applesauce in the slow cooker similar to an activity Sid did. It was really good. It tasted like an apple pie. Marshall said all it needed was crust. Yummy!

While we were at the beach, Gaga kept saying let's go to the fruit stand. Charlie kept saying, "When are we going to buy a fruit stand?" He was NOT confused. He wanted to buy and operate his own fruit or lemonade stand. We found one on clearance Friday at T.J. Maxx. Charlie and Pappy bought Chick-fil-a lemonade, diet and regular, and sold it for a quarter a cup. He was so happy. When he wasn't getting enough business, he went in the house and had Granny come out to buy a cup or two. While waiting on customers he read a book and Pappy worked on his laptop. Charlie made almost $5. That sounds like a lot of sells, but most of his customers paid a $1 or more.
