Homegrown Recap: April Fool's Day the Homegrown Way

Interact w/Homegrown: Happy April Fool’s Day! Do you enjoy pranking people, being pranked, both or neither?

Brent and Nikki pulled their own little April Fool’s prank (but in a positive way). They claimed they were supposed to give away concert tickets but didn’t have them “in-hand” so they couldn’t give them away. Wanting to still do a giveaway they gathered things from around the office – a new legal pad, a half of a roll of quarters and some Clorox wipes. The winner actually received tickets to see Blake Shelton at the Washington State Fair! April Fools!!!

Nikki’s boyfriend and his 17 yr-old son found a snail on the beaches of Hawai’i and decided they wanted to keep the shell (see picture). They took the snail home and failed to clean it before sticking it into the suitcase and heading back to SeaTac. Upon arriving home, every-single-thing-in-the-darn-suitcase smelled like DEAD SNAIL! #Ew
