ok - so seriously - i LOVE her! (course, again, we've known each other for years, lol).but i am sooooo happy she asked me to host! I just honestly have a feeling pampered chef is going to seriously change my life. I got just my host-ordered stuff today (still waiting on my kit) and WOW! :love:I made "basic" tacos tonight - but i used my micro-cooker for the beef and holy crap!!! really? i can make ground beef in the microwave??!!!! of course i chopped it up with my mix n' chop and used my new knife set (bought the green knives at the 60%) for the onions, cilantro, tomatoes, avocado...but no joke - just making my first meal with all my new kitchen toys tonight - i SO can't wait to get out there and sell this stuff! plus - i know that having all these tools now will make me want to cook at home instead of going out to eat! tomorrow night is my first meal with my new pride and joy...the DCB. but anyways - just wanted to send out shouts to my recruiter! Deanna, you ROCK!!!! :love:
