Tell your story#16 - Together we are a force

Hello everyone It's been a while since I've been on the site! Well, I will improve!! I decided today to write to the competition in the community for ladies Steem For Ladies. And conducts it weekly @ruthjoe. The competition is called "Tell your Story #16". And I'll tell you my story about the fair that was held in my daughter's second grade, it was in 2021. She was in the second grade then. These were annual fairs in the autumn period. All the photos were taken that day, these are the goods that my parents and I baked ourselves.

And it was like this: at the autumn fair in our school, all the parents gathered to demonstrate their culinary talents. We have organized small workshops and rehearsals in advance to make sure that each pastry will become a real masterpiece. The list included pies, cookies, cupcakes and pumpkin treats prepared with love and care.

On the day of the fair, our school playground was filled with bright colors: autumn leaves, decorations, children's laughter and the smell of baking coming from our tents. We were full of enthusiasm and willingness to work for a common cause — to raise as much money as possible for charity. But beyond that, we didn't expect how much joy this day would bring.

At first, everything went according to plan. People bought our treats, and the children offered all their friends to try our culinary products. However, in the midst of the fair, an incident occurred: one of the mothers, who decided to please everyone with new recipes, accidentally touched a jar with icing, and it fell to the ground, breaking into pieces. As a result, the main topic of the day turned out to be the struggle to clean the site and a jar of icing. Instead of panicking, the parents quickly teamed up, helping each other clean up and even joking merrily about the situation.

After completing the cleaning, we realized that this unusual incident had brought us closer together. The atmosphere of solidarity and support has become more important than the success of our baking table. We had fun discussing not only our culinary achievements, but also funny life stories, sharing stories about children and parents' worries.

At the end of the day, we counted the proceeds and, although we did not have a food record, we raised a decent amount for charity. Of course, we were happy that we could help. But an even more significant lesson for us was the fact that the most important thing is not the number of baked goods sold, but the connections that we have strengthened, the sense of unity and support that has arisen in our team.

This day was a real lesson for us that even in the most difficult situations it is important to maintain a positive spirit and unite for a common goal. Next year, we have already conceived new recipes and planned how to make the fair even more successful — not only in terms of charity, but also in terms of joint communication and friendship.
