I made this (with the goat cheese) and it was *delicious* but I was disappointed how many adults wouldn't even try it. I don't think I would demo it unless my host really wanted it and felt it would be "perfect" for her guests.

Another thing that is really yummy with this chicken is to zest a lemon, press some garlic and rub that under the skin. You will lose your mind, the house smells so good!!

I did. And I just hosted a show for another consultant that had almost $800 in sales, two bookings in the first half of October, with another 3 people interested in booking in January and March. I hope my consultant doesn't think I was a pain to deal with.

Mine says, "Hi, you've reached the home of the Aebi's and Wendy Aebi, Pampered Chef consultant. Please leave a message and we'll call you back. Thanks for calling and have a great day!" I have a friend with another direct sales company whose message always has her specials and an invitation...

My husband hosted a show for me, and I knew how the commission would work, but HO held the show for almost two whole weeks until I finally called and asked what the problem was. They said they needed to notify me to make sure I knew about the commission thing, because the host had the same last...

nope, I've taken really good care of them. Handwash and tuck them back into the cabinet with a goodnight kiss, even.

Just saw on another thread that the lids of these bowls fit snugly. :confused: The lids of my bowls fit *really* poorly; they don't snap on and stay on they way the batter bowl lid does. Do I need replacement lids or is that just the difference between lids that snap over the edge compared to...

I picked up a great tip one time that makes you look like a genius. Know the pages for cookware, Simple Additions and stoneware and refer to them as you do that spiel, or as you end your show and say, "I can help you find anything you want in the catalog, but everybody is always looking for...

::ahem!:: ;) I always tell people they need 3 sugar shakers; 1 for flour, 1 for powdered sugar and 1 for cinnamon sugar. I haven't sold 3 at once yet, but I am noticing that people are adding that on at every show now.

Here's a fun fact for your shows--Fresh ginger is a major aphrodesiac. I would always mention that when doing the potstickers last fall. Of course, in that recipe if you put too much ginger in, you'll ruin the balance of flavors, so I always had to tell them not to overdo it or you might kill...

Wow, I'm really in the minority here! I almost always eat at my shows...I can only think of one that I didn't. My hosts have always treated me like a friend, and I usually end up sitting down after the demo with the guests as they're eating and going over catalogs. I guess subconsciously I am...

Oh, John, you have to tell me the answer to that riddle; it's going to drive me crazy!!

I've noticed on a couple of different PWSs today (my own included) that when you click on the various tabs, like "My Calendar",you get a message that says "Direct Access to this Page is Prohibited." I got this message when I clicked from the .biz/whatever homepage. Is it a system wide problem...

Sorry to butt in, but I would love to join a Honolulu meeting as well :D We've been back on the mainland for almost 5 years and I still wake up most mornings and have a few glorious moments before I realize we're not in Hawaii anymore. ;)

I have a real estate agent hosting later this month and when we were planning her party, I went over the guest specials and a lightbulb went off..."These would make a GREAT closing gift for your clients!! Just add a little card wishing them many happy memories in their new home." She totally...
