What a snow storm we have going tonight! Went into my show at about 6:30, it was snowing but no accumulation. When I went to my car we had 8-10 inches! Interstates closed....WOW! Glad I was just in town tonight!! Utah has children still stuck at schools now at 10pm! Children are planning on...

I need some new/creative ideas for my son's school lunch. He likes to take his lunch b/c he says that it takes too long to wait in the line (and the school food is pretty bad). Keep in mind that DS is in Kindergarten, he's not a real picky eater but is sort of set in his ways. Usually he gets...

Hi Everyone, Does anyone have some ideas on Sunday School games for K-1st grade? I am running out of ideas and still have 1/2 the year to go. Thanks for any advice!

Hi all, 7 years ago I got a teaching certificate. At that time, the mother of a friend of mine retired and gave me everything from her classroom. I mean EVERYTHING. I easily had thousands of dollars worth of stuff - you name it, I had it. Her classroom must have been veryyyyyy full...

Hey you prayer warriors and those who can only grab enough time to whisper too... tomorrow I am going to meet with our Principal about our son. He has Asperger's Syndrome but you wouldn't really know it if you met him. He's a cool kid... you would just think he is shy... anyway.. .he has a...

I've been a hobbyist (okay I've been barely getting by) with my Pampered Chef Business for two years now. I moved two times in two years and worked full time so my PC business kept being put last on the priority list. Now I'm back in school for what is considered full time - I am finishing up...

Our elementary school is planning a spring festival and I am in charge of vendors. Do any of you have a vendor registration form or any other things that would help me with this? I'm very close to pulling my hair out over this!!!:cry:

I have a big fundraiser going on for a school which I included tax on the order form. A customer has brought up that I should not be charging tax. Is that correct. If so, It will be a big hassle getting be people's order funded. It ends Friday and I will need to get their form from the...

I am so happy with how these came out. But wouldn't you know that I ordered the smallest package. I have to get more now.

Ok, I refrained from posting this yesterday even though I new about it early in the morning because the shooter was still on the loose, the town was on lockdown, and they were trying not to release information yet. It has now hit national news (the Today Show even). 6 kids are dead plus...

Buying Children in on tripsLast year was the first time I earned a trip with PC. I Loved it and refused to miss a trip this year. I'm very close to the cruise right now. I had promised my kids (7and 10) that I would take them this time. My husband and I have been on 2 vacations over the last 2...

I think, when I retire in a few years, I'm going to need a hobby that isn't going to require crawling around old bridges. (See my blog to learn about my second career as a bridge hunter.) So is there a school that teaches quilting?

It's not that school is to hard, it is to hard with FT work, and kids. DH does NOT help with house hold chores like he said he would. the kids cry for me when i am at school. when i try to do my homework they demand my attn. granted they are 2 or 3. i am seriously going to talk to DH about...

I was asked to make something special for my daughter's elementary school's Teacher's Lounge this Friday. I am making Quick Pumpkin Spice Cake - but making them into mini muffin size w/cream cheese icing. While talking with the person/teacher in charge, she asked if I would be interested in...

chrpangel sent me a note looking for letters to send home with kids for a school fundraiser. This is the one I used 2 years ago (caution: there are now-retired products included in the top sell list). If you have one, please post it here. Thanks!

I need a good recpe for a upcoming home school picnic! I originally said that I would bring mashed potatoes...for some crazy reason, so if there are any GREAT potato recipes please share! Thanks a bunch:)

So, our school district has changed it's rules on how we are allowed to do our fundraising. The change means that the kids can not take catalogs to friends and family. It has to be the parents doing the fundraising..... This means that our PAC group is not going to use Inisbrook for our fall...

I was in the teachers lounge today and one of the teachers stopped to tell me how much she loves her PC. She wanted to know if I was going to have a show soon at school like I have done at school before. I let her know I was thinking about it and told her about the upcoming specials and she...

Hi All, new to post, but had a question!! I just got a Fundraiser for our school band and there are about 250 band members that will be doing this fundraiser!! YEEE HAAAWWW!! Has anyone done one this big, and if so do you have any suggestions? I have 2 weeks to get it ready to roll!:eek...

I am starting school next week. I am taking 3 classes, work a FT besides PC, have 2 kids and hubby. I let my recruiter and director know that after Sept I am done with PC. I so don't want to but know that there is no way i can do PC with everything else going on. I am going to miss doing...

I just got info that my son's elementary school is holding a chili cook off at the back to school BBQ in early Sept. The info says "feel free to have some fun--be different, dress up, and solicit votes!" So I am seeing this as a potentially great marketing moment. Tell me what you would do to...

Our younger son is a senior this year at the same high school our older son graduated from last year. We have been very active in school activities and I know that they have a welcome breakfast for the teachers where they give away prizes to all of them. I am going to donate a Salad & Berry...

So, y'all have been so supportive of my decision to start grad school this fall, I thought I should let you know... I am officially a member of The University of St. Thomas' Master of Arts in Leadership in Student Affairs program! I went to see Les Mis tonight with some friends at a dinner...

Okay, so I get back from my meeting last night pumped up and determined to make something of myself. So I make a list of people I want to call. Now I can't make any calls because the boys are acting like they have lost their minds. DH is sleeping so he is no help and took the only quiet room...

Here's the situation. My son (16) is currently enrolled in a private college-prep school in another town. He's finishing up his sophomore year. He's been there 2 years. Now he wants to transfer back to the public high school where all of his friends from junior high school & his robotics...

Will the plastic HWC knife cut an apple? I work at a school and the teachers were wondeing if it would cut an apple. I wasn't sure and said I would try it tonight but i left it in the teachers lounge. HELP!! Thanks:)

work a FT job (not PC), work PC part time and go to school? I have been wanting to go back to school for awhile and I am applying next week. I am only going to take 2 classes at a time to start with, I haven't attended college in almost 9 years! But I don't want to quit PC. I figured I could...

Here is a Flyer that I just sent to a local school interested in a Fundraiser. Thought I would share with everyone. I would, also, love to hear any ideas you have on these or other ways.
