What is summer: Definition and 171 Discussions

So it seems that after about 6 people seeing the spring/summer products, I have actual orders for 4 grill baskets, 3 large sheet pans, 1 medium sheet pan & 2 plate caddy. There's more, but it's great to know that the grill basket & sheet pans are a hit so far. Now that most of us have seen at...

I just made the Summer Berry Shortcakes. My two boys, my dh, and I really liked them. I didn't have a lemon so I used a clementine. The crescents were a little under done, so next time I'd make sure they look over done because they looked golden brown after baking for the maximum time on the...

Besides the items you earned during the SAT has anyone received samples from an order they placed yet? We ordered the rest of our items on Saturday 1/26 and they're still showing a status of Received! Bummer.....we want to get the rest of our products!:(

I don't know if this is the right place to put this, but I know someone on here will have an answer for me. When can we start placing supply orders for the Spring/ Summer paperwork? I would like to order mini catalogs to use at my Feb. shows to get March bookings. :chef:

ok if i understand this right, if not correct me if i am wrong....... does home office send us new paper work and stuff like that for free or do we have to pay for it?

I have a show first weekend in August. it is an afternoon show, and hostess wants appetizers. I do not want to heat up the house, so I am going to offer Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups. I would like to send her a couple recipes to chose form. Any other ideas? I want to show lots of products.

This month I recently signed 2. I was going to let them know about the FREE trivet. Can they still get it? If so, does anyone have the number. Thanks.

What is everyone doing for summer recipes? I don't want to do anything that will heat up the kitchen. I have a show tonight and have gone back and forth on what to do - so I thought I'd ask for some advice :) Thanks!!! Jen <><

Ratatouille and No Reservations are both Chef related movies for the summer Ratatouille is an animated Pixar movie and it is getting rave reviews. No Reservations is a movie with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart - The previews I saw looked interesting

Enjoy, Ladies and Gents :)

Hello fellow Cheffers! I need some help! My director asked me to make/bring a good summer recipe that would also be a good show recipe. She wants me to bring it to share, then explain how I made it and what tools I used. So, here are some things I DON'T want (for various reasons): *trifle...

Beach Ball Host Blitz Just received this in an e-mail, and thought I'd share.

I wanted to start a new thread as a challenge - I would love to see all of us fill our schedules for the summer. Report in each day on how you are doing. This is not a 24 thread but a 4 day thread. Everyone has different schedules. Let's book strong! If you have contacted everyone I...

I make this flyer to highlight my June and July booking incentive. What do you guys think of it? Trish in Texas Independent Consultant

Ok, In the past week I have had 4 shows cancel....this has left me with 3 shows in May and 2 shows in June. Having never worked through a Summer with PC is this normal?? Is it just me? My Summer seems to be a bit of a nose dive...everyone is rescheduling for the end of Summer - haha...

Does anyone have anything they would use to attract teachers, to get them started this summer while they are out of school? This was something we talked about at my cluster meeting this past Saturday. I have found a teacher willing to spread the word and distribute the flyers in mailboxes...

I am looking for a flyer that tells a story about 2 consultants. It's called Summer Sally. One consultant works hard in the summer and has a great business for the fall and one "takes off" during the summer and struggles with her business for the fall. Does anyone have that and can post it...

I am looking for any ideas on how to best book this summer when my time and others is already "booked" For example: MY June Calendar I have 2 weeks literally 14 days avaliable to do shows I am out of town the other days and July is basically the same thing I literally have 14 days to hold...

I was wondering when we would be able to order them. Sadly I am not going to get them. I am close but I don't think I will make it.

I've been doing a Power Cooking Show and making 3-4 meals for my host to put in their freezer. I've been doing winter recipes but it is starting to get warmer out and I wanted to move into spring freezer meals. Does anyone have any good freezer recipes for Spring or summer?

I have been doing PC for a little over a year now. My husband is in the Navy and we just got transferred. My question is: Can any of you give me tips on starting in the new community?

Hi Everyone, My aunt is having a show for me tomorrow. She wants to do a Fair theme, but we are having some trouble coming up with recipes. I know we are going to do 123 lemonade with the quick stir pitcher. Someone else suggested an apple pie, but my aunt is wanting something quicker...

The idea came from a cluster meeting. I have a fantastic host who invites her entire apt/townhome community, so it is a powerpacked hour and I do a lot of prep work ahead. The idea of keeping your shows shorter by doing most of the chopping, grating, etc. definitely applies here - and gives...

I have just joined this program and have enjoyed reading all your wonderful ideas. Does anyone have an idea for a good fruit dip. I have a host who wants to do summer fruits and a dip. I think I would have to do something else also. Any suggests. Thanks, Sherry

What do you do with them? In the fall/winter I'll make banana nut bread, but it seems too hot for that.
