Well, I finally did it... I have been doing all catalog shows since September as we thought we were relocating, which apparently isn't happening... so now... I did my first cooking show... it was so nervewracking and then my kids ate the strawberries for my recipe!!! Since they aren't in season this involved me driving all over the place to find strawberries again, finaly got them, but it meant i was only 30 minutes early to the show... which would have been okay but i was doing a lot of stuff ahead of time. Next time I think I am just going to do the prep work ahead of time at my house. I really didn't feel that comfortable prepping in the kitchen with the hostess.
Anyway I didn't really know most of these ladies, but got two bookings out of it... and the hostess is still working on outside orders. We are still below the $400 mark, but hoping to get there by Friday. Of course, I forgot to say half of my stuff... got totally flustered half way through and there was a long pause of dead air.... But the gals were nice, they loved winning prizes... they were just prize junkies, kept giving ME reasons they should get prizes... lol. Anyway, hopefully the next two parties are successful too!
