Did you come see us at the booth?



I hope you all had a chance to stop by the Raspberry Festival Booth this weekend. We showcased some of the new fall arrivals and sold flip flops, Romeos, socks, and stuff. My lovely neighbor was Karen Mullen, a fantastic photographer, so she took a couple of pictures to remember the event (and help me remember what I need to bring next year). So how did the Raspberry Festival go you ask? Friday didn't start out so great to tell you the truth. I started my day by spilling an entire 16oz Americano all over the carpet in my car. I had no time to clean it up so it sat in the sun all day. Nice! I felt sorry for myself and bought another coffee a bit later in the day, only to spill it all over myself and Katz Coffee Shop. Yep, thats right. A second mess. And just so I felt very humbled...I was driving home after a LONG day and decided I needed orange juice. I stopped at the gas station, bought an orange juice, got in the car, opened up the lid and...all over me! All over my clothes, the seat of my car. I started to cry and then just laughed out loud all the way home. How ridiculous is that?! Saturday has been better. I bought a coffee and carefully made my way back to the booth where I actually managed to drink the entire thing without one spill. I took a deep breath, relaxed, listened to some great jazz music and enjoyed the day. So many people out milling around enjoying the sunshine and festivities. People are happy and relaxed. Its been a lot of fun...today.
