I have three. But one host I'm a little worried about she seems unreliable. And another host is uncertain on the date - but she will be having it in March since she booked in March specifically to get the bamboo, and the past host wants the bamboo too so she will hold her to it. And I just submitted shows 2 and 3. I plan on submitting show 4 tomorrow even if DH has to buy the stuff to make the show. And then I'll be qualified in 30 days (3 nice knives and the bonus). Nothing for further out though.Hopefully I'll pick up a couple of orders tomorrow... If not - I really need a 12 inch nonstick skillet. ZK

I have 10 cooking shows in March! I don't think I could possibly fit anymore in there. Poor DH is going to be busy this month carting my stuff around (I am pregnant, so I don't lift the stuff lol)
I don't have any shows yet for April, so I am hoping to get at least 2 people to book at each party to book up April and May and June. I will do a few shows in July, but then I will be taking time off until Sept. So I need to get some catty shows for July and August.

As my director says... Use your time line! I told people that I wouldn't be doing cooking shows after the first week in March (i'm having a c-section 3/21) They booked me solid in two shows! I had 6 shows in Feb. Also don't be afraid to just ask them to help you out with catalog shows during your time "off". Most people are willing to help. I have three catalog shows in Mar. three in April, and three cooking shows in May, they are also being flexible about rescheduling if I'm not ready yet! The money won't be great but I won't go inactive so it's all good. People want to help however they can!Chef_TK said:
