Monday moment.
Had a couple come to our stand on Saturday at the Cicero Summer Fest. Their dog is named Tootsie. They even brought her back up so I could meet her. I regret we didn’t get a pic together to post on here.
Fun fact - Tootsie was my dad’s nickname for me for as long as I can remember.
He and I had been talking about selling kid/family friendly foods for a couple years and grilled cheese/walking tacos seemed to be a favorite so that’s what we went with. We started Tootsie’s in July 2023. He had passed in March that same year.
Going with the name Tootsie’s was a way to honor him. Thank you dad.
