How many Have you been to?

[etteluap70PC]

National Conference's I mean? I am about to loose it with this waiting so I thought it might be fun!

This will be #3 for me.

[wadesgirl]

This is my third year also!

[NooraK]

Just one so far. Didn't go last year because DS was only 6 weeks old. So this will be my second.

[pcsharon1]

This is my third .............but it's been about 8 years or so since my last one. So I am super excited. Last time I went was the first year it was at McCormick Place.

[ChefBeckyD]

This will be my 5th conference!

[chefann]

This will be my 7th.

[pampered1224]

[pkd09]

#4 for me! Haven't missed one since I started.

[chefsteph07]

[dannyzmom]

This is my 5th year going.

[janetupnorth]

#3 here for me.

[pcsharon1]

So where was conference before McCormick?

It was simply held in the conference and ball rooms at the hotels. That is the way it was the first time I went and there may have only been one conference instead of three but I'm not sure about that.

[pampcheflisa]

# 2 for me.......wouldn't miss it!

[DebbieJ]

#5 for me as well, but the funny thing is I just celebrated my 4 year anniversary.

I went to conference before ever doing a cooking show. :)

[stephs_chef]

It's my first and the waiting is killing me . . my parents are taking care of my kids and this is the first time I've been away from them both in 2 years (my dd is 7 my ds is almost 4) so I'm a little freaked out about leaving them . . but it will do me a world of good.
Plus I might get to have a cocktail one of these nights!!! Woo Hoo . . look out!

[pcchefjane]

This will be my first and I am worse than a little kid at Christmas, waiting on Santa Claus! I can't wait to go and I leave in 4 days!

[raebates]

This is my 4th. I didn't go the year I signed up because I promised The Furry Guy I'd wait a while to do it. Went the second year. Skipped the next because I'd had surgery and we were watching expenses closely. I've gone both years since, so this will be the 4th. I don't intend to miss again. I love it.

[pampchefrhondab]

This is the 3rd time for me, and I can't wait! The first time I went I won a shopping spree so nothing will probably top that - but it's still a blast!!

[ChefLoriG]

5th year for me

[tarachef1]

7th conference for me

[Gina M]

4th conference for me - haven't missed one yet and don't intend to! (Helps to live 45 minutes away in the southwestern suburbs of Chicago!)
