I got a whole prep bowl full of crushed pineapple just from one piece of the pineapple peel! I can't wait to show those two items and cross sell them!

Get_Pampered said:I just have to say the last time I was in Sally's Beauty Supply I was browsing through the foot creams and saw a "corn cutter" that looks EXACTLY like our kernal cutter. So you could always offer it as a rather functional item since we can use them on the tough parts of our feet, too!!! Ewww:yuck: I just grossed myself out. Well, at least we know where one PC muse is!

BethCooks4U said:Thanks for the suggestion - I just sent it to HO.

pampered.chris said:That is a GREAT tip! (the pineapple one, not the foot one). I had noticed on the video demo how much was wasted and I too had been put off by that. But this is an excellent idea!!
I am doing a show tomorrow afternoon and I had bought a pineapple to demo the wedger and just got the kernel cutter today, so I will have to take that along too. I also bought chocolate chips to melt in the microcooker so the guests can dip the pineapple in chocolate.
BethCooks4U said:No not about the feet! About the pineapple! LOL
Jean emailed me back that she thought it was a great idea (cross selling with the pineapple wedger).

kcjodih said:I think someone should contact HO about the kernal cutter doubling as a corn cutter for your feet in a pinch! I wonder what Jean would think of that. How about it KG?
Cindycooks said:I am absolutely dying laughing here! I dont think I'll be able to demo the corn cutter with a straight face!

BethCooks4U said:Why are you demoing Spring products already? You can't sell them until March 1. My customers would be upset if I featured things they couldn't get yet. Give them a teaser - "wait till you see how awesome the new products are" and show/give new product brochures at checkout to generate bookings.
PamperedDor said:I do what Chris does sometimes as well - its a great booking tool - you explain they can't get them now but they should have a show in March april etc - expecially when they see how many others are interested - the Host appreciates it too since she can then get 10 percent off on top and her booking benefit - its the end of Feb and to fill those dates in March its a great asset!!!
Sure! First, choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-drained soil. Plant your corn seeds about 1 inch deep and 4-6 inches apart. Make sure to water regularly and keep weeds under control. As the corn grows, you may need to add support with stakes or a trellis.
The best time to plant fresh corn is when the soil has warmed up to at least 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This typically happens in late spring or early summer, depending on your location. It's also important to wait until after the last frost to avoid damaging the young plants.
On average, fresh corn takes about 2-3 months to reach maturity. However, this can vary depending on the variety of corn and growing conditions. You can tell when the corn is ready to harvest by feeling for plump kernels and checking for a brown, dry husk.
While corn is typically grown in a traditional garden, it is possible to grow it in a container as long as the container is at least 12 inches deep and wide. Make sure to choose a dwarf or bush variety of corn and provide enough space for the roots to grow.
Yes, corn is a heavy feeder and will benefit from regular fertilization. Before planting, mix in some compost or well-rotted manure into the soil. During the growing season, you can use a balanced fertilizer every 3-4 weeks to provide additional nutrients for the plants.
