A piece of our Market booth

Posted 05-22-2009 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized

This year at Pittsburgh Market we had the pleasure of announcing the new Amy Butler Softwares and displaying Amy Butler projects in our booth! The display turned out just beautiful and cozy with all the colorful projects. Amy even signed her new program for visitors as they came to greet her. Just next to our booth was actual Amy Butler booth! What a treat to see her beautiful work. Thanks again to Amy and her crew for being such lovely neighbors! Check out some photos of our Amy Butler corner from Market.

… make apple pie! After Pittsburgh Market we found ourselves with a bin full of green apples left over from the Amy Butler Softwares booth display. We put them in the kitchen here at the office and we’ve all been grabbing an apple every now and then with lunch. Last night, we left the office and the bin of about 20 apples on counter. This morning we were all surprised to find that EQ Mouse (or in this case, Office Manager Lu) had turned the bin of apples into a delicious apple pie! Thanks Lu!
