Thanks to those who mentioned baking cakes in the prep bowls. I had forgotten about that, so this weekend, I baked 6 mini cakes and then with the left over batter, I made a few cupcakes out of the floral silicone pan. My kids loved them all!! I did not have any problems with any of them...

Okay, so Saturday is my first cooking show. I'm so excited, the only problem is...I haven't recieved my kit yet. It was scheduled to be here last week, but the state had a huge storm, I live in a rural area where FedEx only delivers every other day, and then they couldn't find my house so they...

I have a host having a party ten days from now (Sat. May 20). She was so sad cause no ones coming to her party and she's taking it personally. She wants to have the party (more for socializing than for the products) but is now feeling like a failure. I tried to encourage her to think of other...

I am getting my host packets put together for my super starter month and was wondering what everyone includes in their host packets. My recruiter uses 1/2 inch binders with sheet protectors and puts everything in there. Ofcourse the hosts give the binders back, but that seemed like a fairly...
