I once won $50 for a cheesecake I made for a valentines baking contest sponsored by the library. My employer cut out the article in the paper and put it on the bulletin board. I then become the person that had to bring the cheesecake to every event!!
I was thinking of giving this a try this year. I'm considering some soaps including laundry soap, maybe a few herbs/plants and possibly eggs.
What do you sell/buy at the market? How do you do, Is it worth your time?
I've heard lots of reports about the toxins in plastic products used for food storage. I specifically want to know if my beloved tupperware is safe? How about the rubbermaid line of stoarges products. The articles I can find on the internet are from the manufacturers and they report (of Course)...

65 yo doctor with heart disease-Might need him later, But if I'm working the triage, I'm probably and adequate substitute. He's 65 and his education and skills are most likely outdated. Lose him.
