I am here, I am here. I have been with you guys. Just reading and....here. Since the audit and my trip to Maine..I have been a bit out of it. Some personal things I am trying to take care of with in home. This week, my big order is coming in from that big show...whopping 8 boxes. Should be there today. I am going to sort it and make some calls to book some shows. I got some bookings, but none confirmed with me, so I am kinda of bummed. It was a really crappy month for me. This past week, I made 3 or 4 recipes to get back into the swing of things and unpacked all my new stuff and this weekend, I am going to set it up on my table to I know how to set it up at my hosts houses. We all know how I like to be prepared. Gotta retype up that demo for myself too.....LOL That demo really helped my first show, so I have to have it for all the rest.
I am here guys...just trying to get back to my bubbly self. Thanks for asking about me.
My first show, I did the anti pesto pizza and it really show a lot of products...I really need to get a couple others I am comfy with. I love the Tomato basil squares, but I don't feel they show enough.
I really need to pull myself together....(SIGH)
 
You can do it Jill! :D

Cheer up Jill - you have a lot of people here who haven't met you who love you.

Have you tried the Aloha Pizza yet? Also, I can share a really easy banana cream trifle one with you that you can't really screw up...

Have fun sorting through that big order...you have an AMAZING highest show total so cheer up...it'll get better!
 
Hang in there Jilly - we miss your bubbling spirit....
 
jill,
try the Garden Ranch pizza for a demo its super easy uses so many tools and tastes AWESOME! After doing it 1 or 2 times you'll know it by heart which makes your demo go even smoother (which we know you like! ;) )
I started 2 years ago using this recipe a lot and i still offer it to my hosts.

Awwwww, you guys are GREAT!! The Garden Ranch sounds great. I need more recipes like this. Ones I can just feel sooo comfy with. I think I am going to set up my table to night and try to figure out how to encorporate my new items. I made some calls tonight..but they want April/May Shows...UGGG. I need some March Shows!!! SNIFFLE!

OH yeah..I have been all over every website imaginable...trust me....If it says PC...I have been there...Just feel out of it I think...I'll get back into things. Just gotta kick myself.
 
That would hurt... try hugging yourself instead... :) You'll like that more! You are an encourager and I've found that when someone who gives, gives, gives like you do gets down... you are too hard on yourself! You've shared and inspired all of us so much in the short time you've been here... I pray God just lifts you up and floods you with a renewed joy!

HAHA, You all are soooooo funny. Thank you so much. It means a lot for your support and uplifting words. I think I have just been trying to figure out my way of doing things for PC and that way I can be on my way for my business. I called my customers from that Big show over the last few days..but they mostly want to book for April and May..but I guess that happens. I looked at the bright side though...I actually jumped on the phone..which I hate....LOL.
I love knowing that money I earned extra is coming in...That is a great feeling to know it is over and above my pay and I am actually good at it. Everyone said they couldn't believe it was my first show....They said they thought I did 20 or 30 shows...LOL.
Thanks for the smileys...SOOOOOOOOOOO ADORABLE.
 
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing...I didn't even know I could do all this in my bar pan and my kids are gonna love it too.

Yeah I give it to all the people that ordered the bar pans and I showed the actual sheet at the show. It was great. Everyone at the show ordered a bar pan and a round stone and a flute stone. That is my goal at every show to push those 3 stones.....
 
Hey Jilly, I'm the most disorganized person on the planet. When you get all your notes typed up all nice and neat will you share?

I love to be organized, just lose it every time I try to organize.(lol)

What do you mean when I get my notes tied up all neat? what is it that you need? My notes organizational notes are scattered through out CHEF SUCCESS, but I am always here to help.
