The Snugsuds invade Bazaar Bizarre

SNUGSUDS successfully invaded Bazaar Bizarre!! First of all, let me just say: there are some TALENTED people out there! Many, many folks with some really good ideas and solid business people as well. Thanks, everyone for being so accomodating to newbies like Chris and I.

It was a perfect, chilly but sunny day in San Francisco. Chris and I got our well rested giddy selves up to San Francisco, greeted by patches of rolling fog and the quiet hum of a city waking up. After meeting our neighbors and setting up, the SNUGSUDS were ready to roll! I couldn't believe it all came together.

Proud "Papa" Chris:



SNUGSUDS - ROLL OUT! Our very first customer was an inquissitive young boy who asked about the details of Sud-z, Sud-Spud, and Sud-Cube. Chris answered every question. It reminded me that creators know their creations (such as "What kind of pies does Sud-Spud make?" "Lemon meringue pies!").



Play the video game on the website!



Many people showered compliments on Chris for a job well done. I couldn't agree more! After a short 3 hours, we were sold out. I couldn't believe we had sold 60 units in three hours. We stayed and took orders for the next few hours until 6 PM. We met so many people - so many different kinds of people - of all different races, ages, sizes, etc. It reminded me of how much I loved having grown up here in San Francisco.

My family was so incredibly supportive! My mom, all my siblings and their kids came out. I was blown away. It was a special time for our family. I can't believe how much we've grown! Here we are with Nicholas, Brannan and little Casey.



What a good day we had. After a terrific Thai meal at a local Sunset district eatery, we made the drive back to my mom's house in Cupertino. We reminisced about our customers. I wanted to keep talking and talking about it, it was so much fun and we we felt so very blessed. Thanks everyone for their support!

This New Year will bring alot of change for Chris and I (more on that later, I promise, just please don't get so excited yet!), and it was good to just have this wonderful event be some quality time for us to have together. A memory to be cherished...

Here, Chris drifts off, rested upon his money box of one's and five's, off to Bubbleland where the Snugsuds dwell in peace...

Merry Christmas!

I know it's unintended, but that photo makes your family look like very tiny people. :)
