Day 1..I meet a French Woman.....


Day One on the job.....I make my first friend!
There I was all unpacked and ready to go ...and completely naked. Stood in the corner, I took on my new role of smiling at the customers. Even though I was naked, even though the crowds werent here as yet. I stood straight and proud and smiled. Thats me.Thats what I do.
Nearing afternoon, I was getting worn out and worried about the nightime chill (after all it is Vermont, northern Vermont at that...) Later,just when significant worry took over, a woman came in with the owner. She was French and she had pants. Pants for me! I was getting my first pair of pants! They were grey and fancier than I had anticipated.
It took the two of them to get my first pair of pants on. They even had to remove a leg.(I am very stiff and have trouble bending) The French woman introduced herself as Yvette and was very friendly. We got along great!
Once my new pants were on, they gave a pair of black oxfords! They were a bit big but I don't think anyone will notice. They look good with the pants. I looked so dapper in my new clothes. I couldn't wait to work the next day to show myself off.
My new friend,Yvette, has promised to come visit again soon! I'm not sure if I'll be getting a shirt. And truth be told, they forgot to give me underpants. ~Wes

Once Upon a Time...

Let's start at the begining...

Once Upon a time, it was a single craft table on a little town green. It expanded into a craft tent, filled with colorful fabric on multiple tables and was toted around in a little silver Ford. Craft show to craft show all around new England, aprons and bags were driven, displayed and sold. The following year,it expanded into a website.

In 2008, ( March to be exact) it expanded again. This time, it opened a store, a pretty one, in the middle of Downtown Saint Johnsbury,Vermont (10 Eastern Ave to be exact).
This is where I came in. This is when I came to be a part of The Vermont Apron Company. I'm Wesley. My job is to wear the mans Apron. And now, I also write this blog.

Here's a photo for you. They said photos were good to use in blogs.hmmmm.......Gee,They really need to repaint the front door. Maybe I'll make a color suggestion.~Wes
