We’re never gonna have enough pastries to get us through the
weekend,” I said to my cousin Raeann, eyeing the four measly
boxes of my goodies left in Brew4U’s freezer. “I just made ten boxes day
before yesterday.”
I pulled one from the stack and slid it onto the black faux-marble
counter of the coffee shop to thaw.
“Take a break,” she said when I stretched to work the kinks out of my
aching back. “Sit for a minute. You’ve been going all day.”
I plopped down on a plastic bin of her herbal coffee blends and sighed
in relief. It had been a long day, and my dogs were barkin’. Wednesdays
were usually slow as molasses, but today had been an exception. When I’d
volunteered to fill in for Angel, Raeann’s assistant manager, little had I
known we’d be swamped all day due to early arrivals for our Fourth of July
celebration.
I kicked a shoe off and stretched my foot. “If it’s like this today, how’s it
going to be this weekend?”
Rae reached around me for the case of hazelnut creamers. Unlike me,
she was still fresh as a daisy. The woman never seemed to tire, and she
always looked amazing. Well, almost always. “I’ve been thinkin’ about that,
too. We’ve torn through everything this week. People are already settin’ up
their booths for the festival and don’t feel like makin’ breakfast before they
leave the house.”
I sighed and tucked a frizzy curl that had escaped my ponytail behind
my ear. “I know, and tourists are already pouring in, too. That’s why I made
two extra cases of pastries and croissants. Just the extra would usually get
us through two or three days, so I thought for sure I’d baked plenty to
account for the fair.”
Raeann laughed and bumped me with her hip on her way past me. “Silly
Noelle. There you go thinkin’ again. Besides, weren’t you wantin’ to make
some patriotic-lookin’ cupcakes anyway?”
“Yeah,” I replied, rubbing my face. “But I wasn’t gonna do that ‘til
tomorrow night so they’d be fresh for the weekend. I’m not even sure we
have enough here to get us through tomorrow, and it’s only Wednesday.”
She plucked a towel out of the small red bucket of sanitizer and wrung
it out. “We’ll be fine until then. If we run out, they’ll live. You and
Hunter’ve had dinner out with Shelby planned for a week and a half. You’re
not canceling just to bake turnovers and scones.”
Even though I knew she was right, I didn’t like leaving money on the
table, and I didn’t want to get in the habit of running out of stock. Folks
came to Brew primarily for the coffee, but my pastries were a close second.
Still, I hadn’t seen my little sister in two months, and we’d missed her
birthday.
I shrugged as I pulled some of her Mocha Loca blend from under the
counter and refilled the rubber-sealed glass jar. “I don’t necessarily have to
