Hey, Mom, I've come from school.

Hey, Mom, I've come from school.

Hey, Tori. Welcome home. You're actually home just in time.

Just in time? Just in time for what? T.J. and I are running to the market. Do you want to come along?

Sure. I'd love to come. Is it a market like a store?

Sort of. The market we're going to today is for farmers and makers.

People who create things or bake things or grow things to sell at the market.

It's outside in the park. It's a really fun time.

Looking at all the things people make and create.

Sounds like a great time. When are we going? Right now. T.J., it's time to go. Hey, Mom, time to go to the market? It sure is. Let's get in the car.

Mom, what are we looking for at the market today? Well, I sort of just want to look at everything, you know, just for fun. I love seeing the creative

things people make, but I'm also looking to bring home some mango marmalade. Do you remember

that yellow jelly that we put on toast the other day? I do. It was so delicious. It was

delicious. We cobbled it right up.

Mrs. Wiseman actually bought us that mango marmalade at this same market.

She gave it to us as a gift, and I would like to get another jar.

Well, that sounds yummy.

What other kinds of things are they needed to look at?

Last time, we saw a muffin stand that sold muffins of all flavors, blueberry, cinnamon,

apple. Mmm, I can nearly smell them now. Last time, I remember seeing a music stand, too. A friend of

Mr. Truman's was selling instruments so that people could make their own music. Oh, good memory, TJ.

That's right.
