Procrastination Defeated
I managed to get my honey sold to Mission Pie yesterday despite trying every known self-sabotaging procrastination trick in the book. Biking it down there was not so bad, it was not as hot as I thought, it was a beautiful day for a bike ride. I had the two boxes of honey jars wrapped in a bag and then bungeed to within an inch of its life to my bike rack and then I tried not to hit any bumps as I swooped down 20th street hill at 100 miles per hour. I sat in Mission Pie and made little tags for the jars since I could not find any suitable stickers on such short notice. They are handwritten with too much info for a hand written tag. I got 80 bucks in pie credit and I am so happy to magically change extra honey into pie made from locally grown wheat, fruit and eggs...on a farm where my friend works! I love this town. And now I am started in the honey business!

Lacking Labels
I am trying to figure out how to sell my honey to Mission Pie. Actually, I am procrastinating. I lack labels. And since my truck is in the shop I can't get any before the 2pm meeting I have with the owner. And I can't figure out how to get the honey over there. It is heavy and all I have is my bike. It is hot and I do not want to get sweaty. Guess I'll break out those shorts again. It is noon. I have to get to the grocery store to find an average honey price, to use their scale to find out how much each jar holds, to find labels that fit the jars at the lame-o office supply shop, and then to bike all the way from the store to the pie shop all before 2pm.
So I am blogging instead. Classic.
