Snack Buoy
From the website:
- Snack Buoy
This floating snack tray with five cup holders and center storage compartment is the perfect way to keep snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and other necessities close at hand while relaxing in the pool.
Made of buoyant, closed-cell foam, its vivid color goes all the way through so it will never chip or fade.
Your choice of color — as long as it's Teal.
19-1/2"D x 4-1/2"H.
Originally $34.95 but now reduced to $19.99.
At that price they'll float right out in a South Beach minute.
The name of this item brings to mind a wonderful anecdote involving Tennessee Williams.
Seems one day he was lounging out by his pool in the Hamptons while his buff houseboy went about his duties, bringing drinks, snacks, cushions, what have you to Williams and a visitor there interviewing him.
Williams said, "That's fine, Vic. You can go now."
The visitor said, "Mr. Williams, I noticed you called him Vic — is that short for Victor?"
Williams smiled, licked his lips and drawled, "No, honey — it's short for victim."
