How a drawing on a bar napkin led to a software platform that processes trillions of calculations
April 15, 2024
In 2007, while sitting at the pub Moran’s with a beer, I drew a sketch on a napkin that would change our business. I drew a software model that would allow an indie store to instantly show (and sell) thousands of products online—without any labor. (The secret sauce: The respective brand would do the product update work for the merchants.) The immediate goal was to help my two retailers more efficiently load products onto their websites (and save me the boredom of doing it).

A classically shaped glass for whisky or bourbon (but of course, you can pour any other beverage into it) that combines traditional hand-blown glass with a contemporary cut. The lead-free Czech crystal looks great in Moser's colors. Stop in at the Shadyside store to see the Box Set.
What is a Teacup Tuesday without a side? A beautiful apple strudel is served on a Tobacco Leaf dessert tray. We love this shape for baked goods but it can be used for so much more; sandwiches, appetizers, chocolate covered pretzel logs, asparagus, a jam and jelly tray or even in the bath to hold your secret serums!

I often describe flatware as jewelry for the table, the accent that gives table settings a special flair.
Of course, unlike jewelry, flatware is essential. Used everyday, whether to savor a quick snack or enjoy a thoughtfully prepared meal, you put a spoon or fork in your mouth more often throughout the day than your toothbrush.
