It’s the First of May! First of May!

Hey Geeks!

Things have been pretty hectic IRL for us here at GeekyCookies. But since it is spring, it is time for rebirth. For some of us that means the yearly spring cleaning. For others, it means new perspectives and outlooks. For some it might mean some “outdoor fun.” ;)

For us it means that we are making some changes and will be bringing you more yummy goodness. And to celebrate, we are kicking it off with a cool discount code you can use today only for 15% off your entire order at GeekyCookies.com.

Use the code: FIRSTOFMAY at checkout to apply the discount.

With that said, we look forward to supplying you with awesome nomz and seeing you in the near future. We plan to be at a couple of events this year so we’ll keep you posted on that. In the meantime, enjoy our favorite song about the First of May written by the awesome Jonathan Coulton. Warning: Not suitable for work or tiny children’s ears.

I’m making a note here: Huge Success! – Craft Lake City 2011

Craft Lake City was SO much fun! This was GeekyCookies.com’s first try at selling offline, and it was very successful!

CLC2011

3rd Annual Craft Lake city

I got word that GeekyCookies was selected to participate in CLC about a week and a half before the event, which meant: CRUNCH TIME! The following day I’m scrambling to get ready for a local TV shoot and promoting the event! They were showcasing five out of the one hundred eighty artists and crafters that were going to be at the event.  We each got a chance to plug our craft and had to do a quick demonstration.
