    Suggestions for a Saturday Brunch Show?

    I'd consider doing the 30 minute chicken and the pull-apart garlic bread for both shows. It's a quick and easy demo that shows off a lot of products.It's not brunch, but by 11 am, people are willing to eat lunch food. It shows off two major lines, stoneware and cookware, and quite a few...

    Hwc Flier to Pass Around at an Office?

    My mom and a friend have both offered to pass a flier around work for HWC fundraisers. I'll be putting a flier on the outside of a 1/2" clear-covered binder, with the catalog inside in page protectors (so the catalog doesn't walk off) and order forms in the front pocket. I've got order forms...

    We have a $500 accountant but have VERY complicated business taxes for my husband's business. She does both his business and our personal for that fee, and meets with him and his mom (they do the business together) quite a few times each year to get them done.

    Help Me Love the Microfiber Towels!

    We use cloth diapers and the absorbant inserts are the same material. I hate the feeling of them, but they're absorbant enough to be used as diapers, so you know they're made to absorb a lot of moisture! (There is a layer between the microfiber and the baby.)We use dish towels instead of paper...

    Want to Make Extra Money and Score Free Kitchen Tools? Ask Me How at Costco!

    I was at Costco today, partaking in samples, and struck up a conversation with the demonstrator. It turns out that a local Costco is closing for renovations and the demonstrators from there will be sharing shifts with our store. I whipped out a mini-catalog and asked if she was looking for a way...

    Hotel or Dorm Room Gourmet - Suggestions Please!

    My aunt is a frequent business traveler and asked me for some recipes she can prepare in her hotel room. She frequently has access to a mini fridge and microwave, or at least a microwave in a lobby, but she's sick of microwaved dinners and take out. She wants ideas of healthy things she can...

    Humor theGirl Scouts Can't Do It, Either!

    We had a girl scout and her mom come around to deliver cookie orders yesterday and not only did the girl ask when she collected the orders but she was the one to talk when delivering. I gave her $10 for an $8 purchase and her mom asked, "Now how many dollars do you give her back?" Way to make it...

    Octuplet Mom - This Is an Outrage!

    I agree. She has made different choices than I would make in the situation, but we haven't heard her speak at all and most of the discussion about her is purely speculative. Her mom is not coming across as especially supportive, either, so her comments in my mind need to be taken with a grain of...
