Farmer's Market

Waking up at 4am

Pete’s Old Man would wake him up 4 am because his Stepfather was a produce man known as the vegetable man. They would go to Down Town LA and purchase vegetables and he’d resell them to the local markets. This usually took about 3 hours when they were done working his Old Man would say “Are you ready to eat” that’s exactly what Pete was waiting to hear, you see that was why Pete woke up at the crake of dawn, Pete was a breakfast man he looked forward to his tall stack of pancakes with eggs and bacon. Soon before it was time to go to school his old man would have Pete could the money that was made for the day separate the money that they started off with and seeing what was a profit. When the old man wasn’t looking Pete would put a little aside for himself : ) I know it’s wrong to steal but Pete was very generous with the money, he took the neighborhood kids out for soda pops and ice cream sometime candy too. Pete said he always had to nickels to rub together in his pocket.
