Erma signed you up to have a booth at the Drakes Bay Holiday Bazaar.”  \n“My grandmother did what? A holiday market?” I snipped a thread from the label I’d attached to the Christmas stocking. It needed pressing, but I’d do that later.  \nAfter closing the door, she crossed to the counter.“Rut roh. Erma didn’t tell you, did she?”  \nI held out my hand to Beth, my best friend and the owner of the local knitting shop across the street.“Nope. What’s the story with the market, and do all shop owners participate?” I took a cursory look and set the paper aside.  \n“It’s a craft bazaar, a holiday shopping extravaganza for folks to buy gifts. Since you’re new in town you wouldn’t know it’s been a tradition in Drakes Bay for the last fifty years or so. My knitters all have tables with different items; one focuses on baby items, another on sweaters, and so on. They agree ahead of time what items they’ll sell so they’re not competing with each other.”  \nAt least that wouldn’t be direct competition with my own dress shop and the knitwear the local knitters supplied to me.“What am I supposed to  \nsell? Dresses?”  \nShe laughed.“No, silly, Christmas stockings. When Dana and Erma saw that your Uncle Herman tucked a tote in, they thought it would be a perfect way for more people in town to learn about Grants Gowns and you as the new owner. The event’s popular with residents from Pembroke Cove and Robins Pointe. Lily Michaels’s parents, Reed and Mindy, set up a tiny camper and sell tea.”  \nTipping my head, I thought, “I met them at her wedding. They’re very nice.”  \n“Just like Lily. Typically, she helps them out. She might even read tea leaves.”  \nI picked up the next stocking and glanced at Beth.“We should plan a potluck dinner for after the bazaar. Maybe Lily’s husband would drive down, and they could join us. It would be nice to get to know Lily better.”  \nShe nodded.“Great idea. I’ll call Lily and ask her to ask Gage and her parents, too. Do you think you have enough stockings to sell? The sale is this Saturday.”  \nMy eyes bugged out.“What? I only have like twenty-five, and that was inventory for the rest of the month in the shop.” I pushed back from the work table. “If it’s busy, I could run out before lunch. What was Gram thinking? And when they left this morning, why didn’t she mention it?”  \nBeth grinned as I slappe","cbCaiuOst2PzBjNG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuOst2PzBjNG","pdf",2491182,5,217,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## Chapter 1\n## Chapter 2\n## Chapter 3\n## Chapter 4\n## Chapter 5\n## Chapter 6\n## Chapter 7\n## Chapter 8\n## Chapter 9\n## Chapter 10\n## Chapter 11\n## Chapter 12\n## Chapter 13\n## Chapter 14\n## Chapter 15\n## Chapter 16\n## Chapter 17\n## Chapter 18\n## Chapter 19\n## Chapter 20\n## Lace & Lies\n## Reviews & Newsletter\n## Cozy Mystery Books\n## Romance Books\n## About the Author\n## Social Media","[{\"question\":\"What event does Claudia get signed up for in Drakes Bay?\",\"answer\":\"Claudia is signed up to have a booth at the Drakes Bay Holiday Bazaar, where local shop owners sell gift items such as Christmas stockings.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the Holiday Bazaar prevent vendors from competing directly?\",\"answer\":\"Vendors agree ahead of time on what types of items they will sell, so each shop focuses on different products rather than selling the same thing.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is Claudia upset about the bazaar setup?\",\"answer\":\"She realizes she has limited inventory—only about twenty-five stockings—and had not been informed by her grandmother until Beth brings it up.\"}]","Ribbons & Robbery -
