Pink Tale #56, Loco for Coco
At Eynesbury FM
Young Mum with two young children, boy and girl, rush towards the stall.
Boy: Pink Muesli Mum! What we’re looking for! (he says with great excitement)
Me: Hi! Have you had this before?
Mum: Yes we have, and we loved it, didn’t we? (addressing the children who both nodded enthusiastically)
Me: Great! So good when customers come back! (I smile happily.)
Mum: Oh, we’ve been looking for you these past few weeks and were hoping to find you this week.
Me: Even better! I’m here once a m onth every first Sunday.
Mum: We’ll keep that in mind.
Me: I have a new product if you’d like to try, Cinnamon Carrot Apple & Raisin. It’s over 50% vegies.
Mum: Oh the “v” word (she looks at her children, the boy grimaces)
Me: You won’t notice it, promise (I wink at the boy). Here have a taste. (I offer them samples)
Girl: Ummm
Mum: Did you like that? (girl nods) How bout you sweetheart? (addressing the boy, boy nods slowly while savoring the PM) Shall we get that or your favorite?
Boy & Girl: Coconut!
Mum: Ok then, we’ll take a large bag of the Coconut and a small bag of the Cinnamon. I really liked it! It’s a great way to get the good stuff in! (she winks)
Me: Thank you so much! Remember, first Sunday of the month.
Mum: Yes! See you next time! (they skip cheerily away, pink bag in hand)
Family’s in the pink ?
