With Heavy Hearts, Poppy is Discontinuing its Services We have hard news to share today – Poppy will be discontinuing services as of December 4, 2018.

A simple “hello,” a day transformed.

Cheers to future engineers 👩‍💻

Those little things that make you feel like a kid again: a carefree whack of a mini golf ball. 🏌️‍♀️

In a 🎃 mood but finding yourself without a pumpkin? Carve a pumpkin face into an apple snack or let the kiddos color on some clementines.

*Update 11/2/18*: Sadly 😫, Super Bueno is discontinuing its lunch service on weekdays, so we're not going to be able to continue Poppy Onsite during the week. Thank you to everyone who came out, and we'll post updates on any future/similar offerings. Please still look for us at Sunday brunch from 11am - 2pm.

[repost] I’ll be damned if every painful, godforsaken minute spent peeling each of these joyful seeds isn’t 💯worth it. Metaphor for startups and I suppose life in general.

Pumpkin carving and sharing funny stories: highly recommend this grownup activity. 🤗

(PS: share your votes on the winning pumpkin 🎃)

👀 Caramel apple-ing can be easier than pumpkin carving (certainly more delicious). The keys to this sticky-substance craft: preparation and parchment paper.


- Stretch it out for hours by having a stick-decorating party beforehand (or asking a great caregiver to do so).
- Have littles help unwrap the caramels.
- Divide all decorations to avoid any caramel-filled clashes.
- Parchment. Paper. Everywhere.

Getting into the spirit of -and- the first signs of flu season 🤧, here is one of our favorite hand-washing tricks for kiddos:

Sing this song to the tune of “Frere Jacque” (aka “Are You Sleeping Brother John?”):
🎶 front and ba-ack, front and ba-ck//
in between, in between //
rub ’em all together, rub ’em all together //
now they’re clean, now they’re clean” 🎶
