Bounce, Flip, Boing!

Hey everyone, Sue here again.

Here at the bread + butter headquarters we've acquired a new toy. That would be our 14-foot trampoline that now adorns our backyard and I'm quite certain is thrilling our neighbors with it's shiny metal bars, black netting and squeaky springs. Not exactly an esthetically pleasing addition to the landscape of the neighborhood. However, as you can well imagine, we have been very popular with the kids all over our street who will benefit as much as Katie & Emma on this one. Of course, the safety concerns are real so we have laid down some laws that will present some challenges but that I hope we can work out in some mutually beneficial way (as in no one gets hurt, no one sues us, everyone is happy)

As I was thinking about the trampoline, I couldn't help but draw a parallel to our bread + butter project in terms of the ups and downs. We have had great interest, lulls, spikes in sales, downturns, spikes in the kids enthusiasm, and then less enthusiasm as they get distracted by, well, normal kid stuff. It is a cycle but one that continues to test our commitment and drive and make us rethink how we do business. Which is a good thing.

Well I'm glad amid the political chaos of today's healthcare fallout we have the mindless distraction of Dancing with the Stars. We could probably all use it.

Have a great evening everyone. We'll get a picture posted of the girls on the trampoline in the coming days.
