    Maximizing Your Time and Profits with Express Shows

    I have also done one of these. The hostess made one item and I made the other during prep time before the guests arrived. I didn't have a great experience with it just because the hostess didn't try very hard to get people there...and as hard as I tried, she just wasn't that excited about her...

    Got a Catty Show Today Just by Mentioning Pampered Chef!

    Great Job!--- I carry my catalog tote and I've had a few people notice me, but my biggest bang was getting an order from my bank teller.... I'm still working on bringing it up more often! Your experience is just another example that it's worth a try!

    Was My Mom & Me Show Disaster Worth It?

    It totally boggles my mind at how rude people can be! She basically had you babysit too! I feel for you, I've had a rude host once... but wow! I am so sorry you had to go through that and maybe like the others said, get some rest and you'll feel a little better-- hopefully she'll get some...

    Some People Just Don't Get It.....

    I have had a few ladies that are like "whatever I get is what I get" tossing their hair around like a valley girl--- Some just don't want to be coached-- I always tell my hosts that if they are going to throw a party they might as well shoot for a 1000.00-- and they agree-- but my past couple...

    Is It Difficult to Keep "Holiday" Bookings?

    Hey all, This will be my first holiday season with PC and I'm wondering if you guys who have been with the company longer have noticed a trend in the season with difficulty in keeping your bookings. So far I have 3 booked for Nov., but none yet for Dec. I'm starting to tremble a bit-- when I...

    I was watching a show on HGTV where the couple had remodeled the kitchen and she was talking about her cabinets and opened one- and there they were New Traditions Stoneware in her cabinet! I was floored!

    Punished by My Neighbor: Feeling Violated Over a Newsletter Reply

    I totally understand the "need to please" syndrome-- I think that some of us women are just hard wired that way and it's hard to stop. I'm with the other ladies and just let it roll off your back-- but if it were me, I'd have a hard time taking my advice! I'm working on it--- BTW- Georgia, I...

    Have you tried roasting a whole chicken in a Fluted Pan before?

    I think you gave me the key... I did use the pastry brush to put oil on, but I heard to cook it for 15 min, then let it sit in the microwave for another 15 so it would finish cooking.... I will def. try what you told me-- I mixed the batter the way it said on the box-- not with the sour cream...

    No-show for Husband's Birthday: 2 Weeks and Counting

    I too have had a couple of hosts that wouldn't return my calls-- the one that blazes me to no end is a lady who was very excited about doing a catalog show and booked to do one in Sept. She actually won my door prize, when I called her she was still excited and happy to get the door prize-- I...

    Have you tried roasting a whole chicken in a Fluted Pan before?

    Amazing! I never thought of doing this! I can't wait to try it! Another thing about those cakes-- I'm having trouble getting them to come out with out falling apart-- I'm stressed 'cause a couple of my shows want to have them and decorate as pumpkins-- what do I need to do differently? I let...
