Hope Floats - JDRF Fundraiser - June 3rd, 4th and 5th

It's time for Fresh Market's annual JDRF fundraiser.

At TFM Huguenot, Kristen and I will be outside manning the table and grill.  Aside from the toppings TFM offers (e.g. ketchup and mustard, whip cream and cherries), I'm lucky to have a few of the brands I enjoy sampling, provide additional toppings and condiments.

Come out and support JDRF.

The last Customer Appreciation Event was my idea.  I think before, during and after that event I kept telling myself "never again!"  As my Great Grandma would always tell me, "Never say never. When you do it comes back to bite you in the ..."  So, this event is TFM Corporate's request.  I've planned it and hope you enjoy it!

Again?!

Looks like we're appreciating you some more.

THANK YOU!!!

This is a bit late, but a HUGE thank you to all my customer-regular-friends for coming to Fresh Market's Customer Appreciation Event AND for supporting me.  I only wish I could have done more than wave hello as I raced around that day. Chit-chatting would have been so nice.

Lorene, me, Penelope, Pat and Jenny

 I think Pat, Penelope and I have finally recovered from the hectic pace.





I really wanted to take pictures during the event, but had no clue we'd be as busy as we were.  So all I have are pictures as we brought samples to the table.
