Ginger428 said:The only thing someone pointed out to me is the picture on page 4, showing a bunch of products kind of looks like that is what they would be getting. Hope what I just wrote makes any sense... BUT eveything looks Awesome!
That was my first thought so we need to be sure that guests/hosts know it's just an EXAMPLE... not what they will be getting.

I like it - only thoughts I ever have (and its reoccuring every catalog) -
1. Why do they always make the picture of the Beer Bread sooooo small? Most people don't know we have it and always refer to TS's...again this F/W....SMALL picture. (Why don't they show the beer bread maybe being dipped into a dip/oil etc.? Grrr..
2. We have a bridal/gift registry AND fundraiser program and it is NEVER mentioned in a catalog When we leave catalogs out and about, people don't know about these other things we offer. Why not put a sidebar down say, the simple additions page, regarding the Registry and somewhere else put a blurb about Fundraisers?

I was disappointed in the cover. It didn't "wow" me. Love the pantry section...it really pops out and the little write ins. Would love more recipes, at least 3 or 4.
My most favorite picture spread is page 14 & 15 in our Spring/Summer catalog. That just jumps out and makes you want to be at the summer party!
The chocolate cookbook...I have already gained 20 pounds just looking at it.
The pages are sticky together because of the drool!!! Sadly, I put it in the same catagory as men must put porn in:bugeye::devil:.

There are so many recipes that I want to make that I decided to make My Fall Kick-Off (which I do as a Host Appreciation Party) a Chocolate Buffet. :chef:
