Class project: “Supply and Demand“.
The kids had to decide on a product, create a business proposal, calculate the cost price and a profit margin and the sale price, do some “market research” and then go setup the business at school on Monday morning.  Mannat decided that Papa’s waffles would sell well.
Home made.
From scratch.
Nope, we don’t believe [...]
