Tchotchkes
I cannot stand tchotchkes (aka logo crap given out at trade shows and events). I only like a trinket if it has use. And by use I do not mean another calendar, notepad or chip clip. I think working in marketing has jaded me. But, I do like a well thought out, clever giveaway item.
So, today while perusing the Tulsa World I saw an article about the 3rd anniversary of the Linnaeaus Teaching Gardens (located behind the Tulsa Garden Center -- for those of you who have not visited it is really nice). Next week they will be having an anniversary event and have an awesome giveaway:

I am with you on tchotchkes! The actual word itself even irritates me...haha! Anyway, wish I lived in Tulsa...I would SO go by there Saturday! You'll have to post a picture of yours to show it off...I wonder if they'll be as nice as in the pic?
ReplyDeleteHope you were in the first 500! I love hydrangeas (unfortunately, with my "black thumb of death", I kill most living plants) but do not grow them well so if I lived there I would try to get one and donate it to you! I will try to send you my photo recommendations soon! And let's plan that girls weekend ok? i will send you an email with some dates I have available soon too...love, Jennifer
