Sausalito Woman's Club

Last weekend was the annual Sausalito Art Festival. I volunteered for two years in a row to make gyros for the women’s club. People that know me find this quite humorous. Personally, I find it great fun and beyond exhausting.

Sausalito is a small town so a big event leaves little parking room for shoppers. The people that come by bus or ferry usually opt for the event rather than exploring the “Out of Hand” pathway. But not this time. Sales were double over the previous labor day weekend and I’m left stunned.

I’ve been in business for three years and remain clueless to predict a high or low sales day. Heat, rain, holiday, festivals- none remain consistent. So for the time being I’ll take what comes along and if anyone has the answer, please let me in on it.
