OMUNKY News Blog — streetfairs

What excites me about heading into NYC to do street fairs is that I am almost always guaranteed to have a good day. It's come to the point that even a little rain doesn't stop the OMUNKYness that is happening all around me! Yesterday on Lexington Avenue was a lot of fun. Sure, it rained a litte. But, I met some awesome people from all over the world (I'll try and take more pictures of customer interaction next time) and had a great time bringing a small amount of joy and happiness to all those animal lovers out there.
