Ok folks, keep your fingers crossed and send thoughts of $$ my way...

I am having my first cooking show of 2008 tonight! I took January off, had several catalog shows in February, and now I am booked solid for March!

This has been the perfect hostess - sent out 40 invites and is very excited about the party. This is a whole new group of folks for me, too, on the opposite side of town from me.

So - any good thoughts in your head - send them to Alabama!!:D :D
 
Good luck Lamar! It will be great!
 
Good Luck! Let us know how it turns out!!
 
Here's wishing you high sales and lots of bookings!
 
Good luck!
