Lemonade Stands

I try to make it a goal to always stop and buy lemonade when I see a lemonade stand. Some of the best times have been with Kelsey. Through our lemonade "stops," I have come to appreciate a good cup of lemonade compared to the cheap "thrown together" kind. If setting up a lemonade stand, here's some advice: 1) Don't put too much ice in. Then there isn't enough room for the lemonade. 2) Have big cups. 3)It's better to be too sweet than not sweet enough. 4) Homemade lemonade is always the best and definitely worth a whole dollar. 5) Don't be too shy. People who stop to buy lemonade usually want to talk to you especially if they are teachers. :0) Lemonade stands symbolize the American dream each summer as children line the streets with dreams of starting a small business or buying something special with their hard earned coins. Next time you see a lemonade stand on the side of the road, take a few minutes, stop, and buy a cup of lemonade. As the saying goes, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Why not buy someone else's lemonade as well?
