You could double the recipe by prepping one in advance and keeping it warm in the oven and then demoing the second batch. I'd talk with the host ahead of time to see if she could ask a couple friends to be helpers so you don't have to do it on the fly (and reward them, of course!)

I'd love to hear back from people how this goes if they try it--neat idea for a motivated host!

Might sound funny, but I like the sprinkles on toast! It's common in a lot of Western European countries to find "toast sprinkles" in the grocery store--they come in all flavors! Discovered them when I went to Amsterdam years ago.

I think it's a good price as long as you'll get a good crowd. I'd be a bit iffy on sending your entire contact list, however. One thing I tell my customers is that when they give me their information, it will not be shared and they will not get spam. It's pretty likely they'll end up getting...

For those that have the SS, is it hard to clean? I like the idea of being able to brown food well, but I'm nervous about cleaning.

I had over $1250 in sales my first month (still have 1 1/2 weeks to go!), so I get to choose a piece of free cookware! I'm debating between the 12" stainless skillet and the 12" executive skillet. I'm stuck :) Which would you choose and why? I suppose at least this is a happy dilemma!

While it's not whole grain, Pilsbury has a new line of refrigerated doughs called Simply that do not have hydrogenated oils in them and are generally lower in fat. I've seen biscuits, french bread/pizza dough and cookies. Definitely healthier!I'd second the Trader Joe's recommendation--it's...
