I'm packing for a booth tomorrow, and I can't find my striped tablecloth from the January promotion! Ack!

The last show I know I had it was in February (I can picture the cloth on the host's table). I'm almost positive I tossed it in the wash with some towels and things, but DH usually does those. And I don't know where he put it! He's not home for me to ask, either, and probably won't be awake enough to remember where it is before I leave in the morning.

Now I'm freaking out, imagining that it fell from my bag at a host's house, and they kept it.
 
Either that or he washed it in hot water and it's one color now.

My guess... DH "recolored" your tablecloth and then hid the evidence.

Except I don't see anything cranberry colored in the linen closet, er... cabinet. Sometimes he just piles my things up in the basement if they happen to get into his load of wash, but I didn't see it there, either. I don't have time to worry about this now. I need to get to bed so I can wake up and get ready.
 
Has he been to any toga parties since your last show?
 
Or has the garage acquired really nice looking grease rags?
 
Nah, he's already got a complete kitchen out there.
 
As if any car guy couldn't use more grease rags!
 
It's fun picking on Ann when we know she's sleeping.

But I know that it is not in the garage.

And you would know this how????
 
I've have the rare privilege of being invited into the inner sanctum. I also know Ann's DH is not as dumb as I look.That didn't come out quite right.
 
And yet you posted it anyway.....
 
I have had a few things go missing in the past two months, so I know how you feel Ann. :(
 
Good morning, Deb!

Good morning!I drove way too far for a show tonight, so I got home late and I'm just sitting here chillin' before I go to bed.$600, with orders still coming in, 3 bookings, and 1 recruit lead. Yay!

Ha ha ha ha. Of course you would state the obvious. :balloon:

DH got home as I was shutting down the computer last night. He doesn't remember it. I sent a note to the host from the last time I KNOW I used it, which was the first half of February. (I don't use a tablecloth when doing an interactive demo, because we all work on the counter.) We'll see if it pops up.And, KG, he doesn't have a full kitchen out in the Chrome Theater. Just a range, some old cabinets, and a bar fridge. Of course, the oven in the range can't ever be used for food again, since he's used it for powder coating.
 
Oh, that's right. I stand corrected - the new cabinets are all in the basement. ;)

And still in flat-pack. ;)
 
"Flat Pack" is my favorite football team, now that Brett Favre retired.

Who?Kidding!
 
Hope you find the tablecloth, Ann. I lost a Prep Bowl, and it's hard to make those mini cakes with only five prep bowls.

Who's on first.

What's on second.


























I used to :love: this routine as a child - had a cassette tape of it that I played over and over again...
 
Let's see...I'm current missing a Mini Serving Spatula (I know who has this one, but I'm probably going to just let her keep it--it was a $1600 show), my Cranberry Classic Scraper, my set of white Handy Scrapers, and my Citrus Press (which one of my consultants has). Whew! The other hosts from Jan and Feb said they don't have the Scrapers, so who knows??
 
I just realized I'm missing my Greek Rub, and I need it for show on Monday!:eek: :eek: :eek:
 
The last time I had one of those, it cost me a lot of money.

Funny you should mention that - I actually had a group of ladies who were naming the Greek who would be doing the rubbing....they also named the Moroccan....:D :D :D (and 2 of them booked! I think they are hoping I'll bring one of them with me the next time!:p )
