A dozen people were in attendance for the inaugural meeting of Skip Crackle Pop. The event coincided with Fat Tuesday. Patti was gracious enough to bring a King Cake for the rest of the group (no one found the baby), and Bridget brought festive bead necklaces. To quote someone I'm too lazy to research: People ate, drank, and were merry. Case in point, one of Kavarna's employees exclaimed "Whoo!" when the last Skip Crackle Pop attendee left the premises. The set list can be found below, and photos from this meeting can be found here. |
