I have an extra stoneware mini fluted pan that I accidentally bought, thinking I didn't have one.

I told her to deep-clean it with baking soda to make sure of that.

I'm pretty sure that's not it... she said it didn't smell like fish either, and fish skin would smell.

I had a customer just tell me that her stone's seasoning "came off" when she cooked fresh fish on it. I was confused, because there's really nothing that could come off, right? She said the spots where she cooked the fish turned back to the natural stone color, and were no longer the nice dark...

Wow, I wish I had this problem. I usually have guests lining up to check out and I have to tell them to pile their order forms and I'll call them when I'm ready for them! I hate having people standing behind the person I'm checking out... it gets them ready to say "no" to all my questions.

I'm looking for only the Simple Additions pieces, but thanks!

Any hints on doing a couple's shower? The groom will be there too, as well as male guests. Should I just run this like a normal shower? Should I do anything special for the guys?

I have a customer who is looking for any of the pink HWC Simple Additions items... small plates, mugs, anything. Please let me know if you have anything I can get for her!

I have one with a spare holder as well... it's still in the inner box, not the brown outer box.

I would have been in Wave 2, but I decided it's just not financially feasible for me to go this year. Thanks for all the offers, everyone!

I keep wavering on whether I'm going to go or not. I really had fun last year, but it's so expensive. :( I'd initially registered, then canceled, now considering registering again. So... if I decide to go, does anyone need a roommate? I'd even bring my air mattress and sleep on the floor. I...

Ugh, that was a complete waste of time and $250. We maybe had 6 people come in the whole day. I only got 5 contact slips, two of which were from other vendors. I'm going to call all the ones I got, of course, and it was nice to network (I have a couple possible shows from other vendors), but...

Yes, but how to entice them to fill out the slips? Usually people won't fill anything out unless there's some sort of incentive.

I'm doing a table at a Home Based Business Expo tomorrow, and I'm somewhat at a loss of what to bring to display at the table. I know I'm bringing catalogs and lots of opportunity brochures/DVDs/etc, but should I bring products? Maybe everything you get in your starter kit? I don't knoooow...

I did one show completely interactive, and I had mixed feelings about it. One guest said she didn't want to help at all, so I gave her the recipe to read. About ten minutes into the show, she handed me the recipe back and demanded to have a catalog and order form because she had to leave early...
