I need some help with what to do at an after-work express show. The host and I are going to prepare the food ahead of time so the guests can come eat and shop. I'm open to any suggestions as this is my first express show, as to how what to do. What works for you?
 
I bring my TTA, stuffed, plus a piece of cookware, stoneware, and SA. Now, I'd also bring Bamboo. I talk about our families of products, and let them play with the tools while they shop and eat.
 
I do what Becky does. I talk about the different collections while they eat and also go over whats in their guest packets while I have their attention! :)

What are you and the host making for the guests?
