Yes they will!!!:D

I am going to be sooo tempted to cheat and look early on here! I am in Wave 3, it will be so darn hard:p
 
Yes it will be hard because I'm in Wave 2 but I want to be surprised!!! It's the first day at 3pm!! I can't wait!!:D
 
Oh yeah..one other thing I wanted to add to my list.

Some sort of nice looking serving utensil to accompany the trifle bowl. Don't know if it would be clear acrylic or what, but it needs something!

Didn't I read somewhere with all the Leadership Spoilers that NC news is blocked out on CS until after wave 3? I'm in 3 and it will be SO HARD to wait if they don't make it so I CAN'T get into it!
 
DON'T SPOIL IT FOR YOURSELF IF YOU ARE ATTENDING CONFERENCE!!!

You will be soooooooo stoked when you are there at conference living out the surprise with thousands of other people who are screaming and yelling and having a ball. You will be disappointed if you already have information about the products!

Now, if you are NOT going...who am I to tell you what to do?

But, if you ARE GOING...I will kick your butt if you spoil the surprise for yourself!!!

OK, off my soap box....

Rae~ Do you want to get on my soap box next and tell these whipper-snappers a thing or two??? LOL

I totally agree!!! Doris asks everyone at Wave 1 and 2 not to spill the beans. I know that Greg doesn't want us posting here either til conference is over. It is SO worth the wait!
 
I would love to see a "cake taker". I have been using my old Round Chillzanne Platter with lid and handle...the old Round platter fits in there perfectly, you put the top on, snap on the handle and it works great. However, my lovely daughter knocked the lid off of the counter and broke it into many, many pieces. So, now I have no lid...but I can still use the bottom and cover it with ugly foil I guess.

I would also like to see Christmas things. I loved the Thanksgiving colors. However, I thought last years table linens were extremely over priced and I didn't buy any of them. Something to match the burgundy SA pieces would work great for the holidays.

It's so nice to be recognized, loved and appreciated for exactly who you are. I can feel the love!And, Kelly, I couldn't have said it better myself.Gee, Jennifer, I can't believe you think we'd cheat, or let the cat out of the bag, or let our fellow cheffers get a jump on the "official date." :eek: Hee. Hee.
 
I'm bummed that they took the Stainless Fork & Spoon out of the line... I would like to see a Stainless Salt & Pepper Mill or Salt & Pepper Set, a Stainless Mini-Serving Spatula... other guesses are a color-coated paring knife, Deep Covered Baker in French Vanilla. I'd love to see a steamer for the Exec cookware, a double-burner Grill Pan and a bound cookbook with like 100 recipes... and added stuff from Doris' two books. What a treasure that would be!

On another note... I've been to conference for the last 6 years and have been session 3, 4 of the six. I've been session 1 once. This year we are session two. Anyway... last year I couldn't take it and called a friend who was session one and she told me the products. I didn't tell anyone else but it wasn't the same at General Session learning them for the first time. I will NEVER make that mistake again... even if I am session 3 until the end of time!!!!
 
It's kind of like peeking at your Christmas presents. It takes the fun out of the reveal.
 
A lid for the small saute pan!! It would be perfect for basted eggs!

I use the lid for the sauce pan...I can't remember if it's the small one or the next size up, but it fits great! I use the lid for the 10 fry pan for the large saute pan.

I agree ACTUAL lids would be nice, but these work great for me when I need them.

HTH!
 
I'm thinking we are going to be getting a Stainless Steel cookware set. I say that because the product values are soooo high for the fall season. It would be nice to have a garlic keeper. I know we can fanagle other products to work, but an item that is just for that would be great.

I second or third the pasta insert. I hate draining the pasta in the sink with a colander and sometimes I would ike to keep hte pasta water.
 
Hmmm... stainless cookware! Interesting! I have a lot of requests for that (even though I doubt highly that I would ever cook with it personally) but that's a good thought... ESPECIALLY since we can earn the "newest piece of cookware" in July with 2 shows... something easy to do and it could be major if they want us to show it!

I really wish we were going next week!!!!!
 
i'm in wave 4, way up here in canada, lol
it will be extremely hard not to look, i'm sooooooooo nosey and have to know everything lol
so noone can say anything until the 20th lol
 
my mother in law is really hoping for an omlet pan! she said she would buy one, she didn't care if it was $60!
 
I think they should make a glass cake plate with cover that can be used with the Trifle Bowl Stem or by itself.
Also I would like to see a Simple Additions Butter Dish
- loved everyone's ideas! I'm not going to a conference but can't wait to see what's to come!
 
Did anyone say a pot rack? I would love this...

did you know that the round platter fits the trifle stem? Still no lid but it does work as a cake pedestal and looks nice.


I would LOVE an executive collection tea kettle. My stainless tea kettle gets so nasty with grease spatters (I keep it out on the stove) that I really can't get it clean. Something that is nonstick would be great!

I would also like a SA butter dish, and maybe SA salt and pepper shakers/mills.

A knife block like the koosh ones would be awesome. And a forged cutlery carving set? I'm betting that is the two new knives.

A really nice serving spoon to go on the table (not a cooking spoon), either stainless or with a SA ceramic handle, esp. to go with the trifle bowl and for serving desserts.

I really kind of hope they don't come out with stainless cookware, I think it would confuse the issue (we've been arguing that the baked on finish is safe, so then why do we need stainless?) I just bought the cookware line and it is replacing my old (but in great shape) stainless set, there is no way I'd buy a second stainless set just for practical reasons, as it was as stretch for me to justify new cookware to start with.

I agree, linens that are more affordable would be great. That is something that I think the pricing needs to be competitive b/c you can get linens anywhere.

DH has been begging for some stainless cookware!

Non-nonstick stainless cookware is essential for browning pork chops
 
I would LOVE stainless cookware... there are just some things you can't do in nonstick stuff... like browning any meat. We do beef strogonoff in the crockpot quite a bit and I really like it when I can brown the beef - just looks nicer.
 
Ooooooooooo!
dannyzmom said:
a stoneware garlic roaster

a brushed stainless TTA

a knife block

some more new spices and/or oils

Want the stoneware garlic roaster! great idea... hope someone is reading!!!:D
 
mango slicer, although that is really a summer item. I agree with linens that are priced a bit better. I did not sell any of them last year. Glass cake pedestal with a lid.
 
Well, I've also wondered if we will be getting Stoneware in a whole new color....maybe navy blue??

What I think would be nice is a silverware selection, to coordinate with all our Simple Additions, to make the complete table setting.

Definitely hoping for those Simple Additions lids, though. Those would be SOOOO great!!

We also used to carry a Black Bean & Corn Salsa, which was really yummy. I'd love to have it back, or at least a recipe for it!!
Also, I would like a Mexican theme for the Celebrations shows.
 
Green...

I have had customer ask about other colors for the knives - Green is not everyone's favorite color

is my favorite color but not the green our tomatoe knife is!!

good point, I hadn't thought of that. I figured I would keep some of my stainless pieces anyway (no reason to buy a large stock pot in nonstick IMHO)--guess I should hold onto my chicken fryer (like the 12" famiy skillet) and my large dutch ovens.

Didn't we have a steamer insert or something a few years back?

I still have some Generation II and that was the line with the steamer insert and the boil control. I never use my steamer - I know I am ignorant, but I really don't know how! It doesn't seem to go as deep into the pot as I would think it should for pasta.

There's a gadget on TV that dices a whole onion - Vidalia slicer or something like that? Anyow, DH is always teasing me that PC doesn't have that...

I have had customer requests for longer bamboo tongs (for safe deep frying), a cutting board that folds up in thirds, and a collapsable collander.

Since we now live in Alaska and my husband is on his first Halibut charter, I would like to see a forged fillet knife.

I agree with lots of ideas you all said - pot rack, SA Stainless accent pieces, more SA pieces, SA lids!!!!!!, great ideas folks!!!!!!

I can't go to NC this year, so SOMEBODY mercifully post the new products after the last group finds out in person, OK??!?!?! Please??!?!?!
 
Stainless cookware...interesting! Maybe I should wait just a little longer to buy cookware, because I was pretty close to investing in the executive sets :)...although I do like cooking with nonstick 95% of the time!
