Ok, now that I have your attention :)
I've been making a big deal out of gas prices, money saving tips (our recipes), job opportunities for extra cash, and the attached flyer that I hand out at my shows. Thought I'd share.
Happy Selling,
Rita Wester

Me too! Now I know why I go through so much produce, it's not because I have a cheap refrigerator, but because I buy the wrong things, and store the wrong things together! This was very helpful- Thanks! :)
 
Very interesting. I never even thought about the one affecting the other....I need to go check my refrigerator now ;-)
 
Thanks! I sent this to some of my clustermates this morning. It's a great little value-added handout for show guests.
 
That is so funny, I was just having issues with my bananas ripining faster than I could eat them... that were sitting with my tomatoes and advacados! lol

I've been around. Was without my laptop for about 2 months while the screen was being repaired (rough doing shows without it!). I also bought a new house, so been busy with it. And I got tired of the small talk without value-added information (no offense!) and found my time was better spent off chef success and on the phone. I do miss you guys though. I'm just one to post info when I think something is potentially new. Hope all is well. Thanks for thinking of me! I will try to get back in to my newsletters in a month or two.
Thank-x! Happy Selling,
Rita Wester
