I'm way late on this but ...       08/31/05 10:57 AM Edit Reply Quote Sand Reged: 12/13/04 Posts: 4490 Loc: West Orange, NJ (IBS-D) I saw this when you posted it, but didn't have any suggestions then. I still don't have any job-hunting tips for Adam, but as far as something else you could do, this morning cupcakes popped into my mind, so: Baking - You could put together a Dessert of the Day for local diners, cafes, whatever. If they're near you or near where Adam works or in between, he could drop them off on his way to work. If you keep it small enough, you might be able to stay under the radar as far as Health Department, licensing, and so on. (I'd be happy to give you a couple of my gooiest, most IBS-unsafe dessert recipes. Heaven knows I'll never make them again. ) Make a quilt - This seems like a very Maine winter thing to do. You can piece it on the sewing machine and even quilt it by machine, but I think you'd get more if you quilted it by hand. I don't know if you could get these prices, but hopefully you could get a decent amount of money. You could offer custom quilts, too, made from customers' favorite fabrics or treasured pieces of clothing. And years ago I found a woman who did quilt wall hangings in unusual fabrics - silk, corduroy, feathers, sequins. They were spectacular. Furthermore, if you'd do quilt repairs, I'd be first in line. HTH. Good luck to you both. -------------------- [Research tells us fourteen out of any ten individuals likes chocolate. - Sandra Boynton] Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
