Fine Art, Popsicles and Bad Mommy


We had our opening at Locopops Thursday night. The paintings were very well received. The critics were, you could say, impressed. Or they were just enjoying their pops.

The funniest thing was the expression on all the faces of the 'regular' Locopops customers who were a bit confused watching us all talk about the paintings.

After the opening we adjourned to a nearby establishment (the Player's Retreat, we are that kind of swanky gals) for drinks and french fries. In this picture you have proof that I am a bad mommy. Nora has a glazed expression on her face caused by her watching Mollie eat a whole plate of french fries. Or that expression could say 'gee, my mommy fed me three pops and now french fries in a bar-what's next?'

The next day she ate a balanced diet with no fried foods, took two naps and played with wholesome, handmade toys all day. Not a pop was had.

*we all love the PR as it is the place Janet used to get drunk, the place Libby used to work, the place Galen used to love to play darts and many, many more reasons.

    I saw the collaborative mixed media pieces at Locopops this weekend. They look like they were so much fun to work on!

  2. Wish I was in town to catch the show. I'll have to check out Locopops next time we're back East. Love the PR though.

  3. my teenage daughters and I made it there that night, but you were swamped with "fans" and besides, we had to buy up all the uneaten pops before someone else got them!

    by the way, the pops can make it from Hillsborough Street to Apex without much meltage so you can have locopops at home!
