Has anyone had a problem with the apple wedger getting dull? Any ideas on how to "sharpen" it? thanks, mandy

I am just curious what everyone does with their "old" prodcuts when they are redesigned and you recieve the new one? Somethings I still like and can use in my own kitchen but there are somethings I don't need two of...

I haven't been part of this but as I was reading (and yes it is like a soap opera), I was bothered by the fact that home office was giving out information about when shows were delivered. I understand why people are calling home office at this point but in the beginning I don't think home...

I had also been in the "slumps" with getting bookings from shows. Something I have learned is that it really can be not the "right time" for someone. I have had a guest attend three cooking shows in one year. At the last one she came up to me and said "I want to book a show. I already...

I was wondering if anyone has any great recipes for the new torte pans or any ideas on making some modifications to the island breeze rum cake. If your host doesn't have most of those items on hand it can be a long shopping list and for some maybe a little more than they want to spend. Any...

Not sure where to put this but I have a question about supply orders... If I order through PP how do I get the 40 free recipts. When I typed in the item it said not found. Thanks, mandy

I have a vinyl plotter (the same thing the sign places have) and made me own window signs. It has helped generate some business for me.

I have wondered about this myself - it is sort of like plastic in the microwave. For years it was said it was "safe" and now some research has pointed at vapors being released that can cause cancer. These people may just be wondering if it really is "safe".

I tend to agree that after 9pm is late. I personally call between 7 and 8pm. For myself though during the winter when it is dark at 4:30 9pm seems way late but in the summer when it is still light out 9pm isn't that late. You'll never please everyone - last week I had the flu and was...

I was rather "hot" about an issue I was having and called the solution center. The lady wasn't rude on the phone and she gave me different options for the situation - one was cancelling the order and resubmitting it. I didn't want to do that because that particular show had qualified me for...

Yes! It had a chunk out of it floating around in the package. It looked like it had been smashed and broke off somehow. Craziness!

Is anyone else having problems with broken items? My last show had the simple addition squares, bamboo spoon, and classic batter bowl broken! Today another customer just called because her cooling rack sits crooked. She said one of the legs is bent. I can see how the squares and batter bowl...

I have had so many people who want that deep covered baker! Does anyone know when it might come off backorder? People keep asking me and I am unsure as what to say. thanks, mandy

I haven't done much with PC lately and am trying to get going again. I heard about an idea to send past hosts/customers a postcard having them call Thanksgiving weekend to place their order for free shipping or something like that for the holidays. Has anyone does something like this before...

I am wondering if any of you do anything for your couples who register when their big day comes? Such as sending a card, etc. I was thinking about a card and possilby a "coupon" of sorts offering a free cooking show to be held within the next year or 6 months - to allow for time for them to...
