I've never shown or talked about the cookware at all. Telling people the low-down on it makes me nervous.

I'll be showing the Executive grill pan and the SS 8" (to cook 20 min rib sauce in). Any tips on what to tell them? I have my flip cards (can't remember their real name)and I'm going to try to use those, but I forget stuff when I'm nervous!
 
Just look at the cookware when you talk. Flared rims, no heat handles, no stick coating, stain interior finish, etc. Doesn't the back of the flip cards have details on them that you can read? Practice also. Try now to your DH or even your cat until you become comfortable with it. And it takes time to remember everything. I remember going with my Director to a show and thinking "how the heck does she remember all that information?!". It comes with practice and time. I still have note cards to help me remember things (like the exact temperature they are oven safe to)
