building 543, which holds our cafeteria, had a ton of great stuff going on today for earth day – starting with this beautiful display of flowers that greeted everyone who walked in the door! i thought it was a really nice touch that the flowers were arranged in water bottles :) there were plant potting and vertical garden workshops hosted by terrain, reusable water bottles and bags for sale, stations for recycling batteries and cell phones, and lots of yummy organic treats!
one of our visual display team members is heading to california (where she’ll be working on displays for our west-coast stores) and to send her off they took advantage of the nice weather to have a festive outdoor gathering. check out more great pics from the party below!
meet eloise! she’s the latest addition to the fp dog family. she’s part husky, part german shepherd and has the prettiest blue eyes and softest fur ever- plus she’s quiet as a mouse.
her owner better watch out because i kind of want to take her home…
one of our fp girls made this amazing cake for a special occasion at the office – more on that later – and she shared her recipe and instructions below! i’m already thinking about all the pretty color combinations i’d want to try…
