What We Did Over Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a fabulous weekend over Thanksgiving, if a little crazy -- if you follow us on Twitter or Facebook, you certainly saw a plethora of posts about many, many things. If you don't follow us on Twitter and Facebook, here's the wrap-up.



Sunday we participated in I Heart Indie Holidays (IHIH), and had a blast! We were next to the Jet City Roller Girls, who were a riot. Sales went pretty well too, at least partially due to selling single lollipops for the first time. They made a great impulse purchase for people as well as providing a way for folks to try a flavor before they committed to a whole pack. That's our overloaded table - sorry for the poor quality, I took it with my iPhone.



After IHIH we threw everything in the car, grabbed a sandwich and headed to the Paramount to see Morrissey perform. He opened with This Charming Man - a total squee moment if there ever was one. The picture below is of the concert, I swear! Morrissey is the slightly brighter smudge in the middle that the spotlight is pointing at. The picture in the backdrop is of an Italian actor from the 1960s, Walter Chiari. We were proud of ourselves for figuring that out.



And if all that weren't enough, Monday we turned Susan's front room into shipping central; we packed up over 20 orders. While that was happening, our 100th Etsy order rolled in! We threw a couple of extra lollipops into the box to celebrate.

Early Tuesday morning, I hopped on a plane and flew back to the Bay Area. I'm pretty sure I'm still recovering. Where's my coffee?
