This is funny, I got this email from my upline's upline... I cracked up!

Yesterday I was at Jewel & this lady ahead of me had about 3 or 4 cloth
grocery bags of all colors. I said to her, you must really like those
colorful bags." She said, "Yes, I think I have one from each store." I
said "You need a red Pampered Chef bag to go with your collection.," She
said, "Oh, my gradndaughter is a consultant." I asked her what her name
was and she said Andrea Pancrazio. I told her that you were in our group &
I knew you.

What makes this even funnier to me is that my upline's upline, Karen, she use to work with my dad, so I have known her since I was about 6 years old. She just can't get away from my family. I accused her of trying to steal my grandma.:cool:
 
LOL, It IS a small world after all!
 
That is too funny!!

Hi there!

Haha, that is too funny! It seems like our Pampered Chef bags are becoming quite the popular item to collect. I love how colorful and durable they are, they make grocery shopping so much more fun. And it's even more hilarious that your upline's upline knows your family so well. It's a small world after all!

I hope you're having a great time as a consultant and spreading the love of Pampered Chef to everyone you meet. Keep on cooking and collecting those bags! :)
