Trifle or Salad Spinner or Both?

[kcjodih]

Not sure where this should have been posted but I wanted to know what everyone else is doing. I've been bringing both the trifle bowl and the spinner to shows along with my batter bowls etc and they won't all fit! I use the red crate the #2 bag and the tta bag.

What is everyone else doing?

I bring it too...I have to carry the spinner separate. I wrap my trifle bowl stand in a microfiber towel and pack in the bowl. I put my door prize slips in the spinner so I don't forget them.

My TTA is in a bag of its own.

My TTA is in a bag of it's own as well. I like to only put what I'm using for the demo in the red crate and then I place my oven mitts, apron and tablecloth on top and my door prize basket fits nicely on top of that. This way everything in the crate is the 'dirty' stuff I take home (in a bag in the crate). However, now I have a trifle bowl (in it's box) and a salad spinner (in it's plastic bag) that don't fit in the #2 show to go bag or on top of my crate. So an extra trip!

I stick my spinner in one of the slots in the STG bag (the one that slips over the rolling case). I put the lid in the large space in the that same bag. If I carry my Trifle bowl I put it in a cookware bag and place it in a different slot in the STG bag. It doesn't take up much space. I, too, wrap the stand with microfiber towels and place it in the bowl then put the lid on and place the whole thing in the cookware bag.

Since I earned the STG system that is what I use for my shows. I tend to bring too much stuff. I had downsized quite a bit, then earned the system and am back to bringing alot of stuff. I take what I need for the recipe then I also like to bring next month's host special (easier this month than last). The current guest special. And some of the popular items. As I begin unpacking they are all amazed that I packed so much stuff in those 2 bags. I like bringing them, especially the rolling case. It makes it so much easier to transport.

I didnt earn the STG so I improvised. I bought a $40 set of luggage at Target last year for conference. It included 3 rolling pieces. I use the largest for traveling but the two smaller ones I use for my shows. It's my very own STG!

It is so much easier now. My back couldnt haul that crate for one more show! My hostesses are also impressed. Oh- I do have the one for the TTA.

I pack what will fit in the 2 cases. That's it! So I now can make it in the house in 1 trip!
