New Spring Products: Predictions for Upcoming Leadership Conference

[VeronicaW]

It is my understanding that a wood block dulls the knives.

If you have a tool bag for Barbeque Tools, the knives fit in there very well. A little bulky, but a handy carrying case.

Yes, just like the ones used on Top Chef! That would be so Great! :thumbup: Nice idea!

We use our Prep Bowls so much, I think a set of two -2 Cup Bowls would be very useful!

Unfortunately I am unable to attend Leadership this year. My husband has his annual Vegas Computer trip for his company, last year we overlapped a day or two. Our three kids stayed at my sisters, we decided not to do that again.

I would love to receive the info too if anyone is willing to send them along to me too!

TIA

or a 2 cup batter bowl (this way it would have a handle)

I would like to see the spouts redesigned for drip free pouring on the Batter Bowls.

YES, I agree. I love our batter bowls but never pour from them because it make such a big mess.

a tea maker--the one i have now the pitcher always spills when i try to pour a cup of tea

 

[pcmom2abm]

wish they'd bring in small items-it's getting hard to carry alot of big items in for demos. Seems like a lot of new large items came out the last two seasons

I think a knife bag would be a great incentive for consultants... but really, how many of our customers transport knives? Would be great if they offered that to us though.

I have one similar from FireKing that I have had over 12 years. I love it and use it almost everyday. It basically is a glass measuring cup. It is made very similar to the batter bowls but has red lettering for the measuring marks. I have thought a 2 cup batter bowl is a great idea.

I thought that was what the oven mit was for! jk

The Bean Pot I am talking about is tall and round...like a large crock that my grandmother used to have...with a flat lid with a small round handle in the center of the lid. The pot itself has small handles on the side. I love the DCB, but the bean pot would take up less room.

 

[finley1991]

What else could you use a bean pot for?

Maybe like the bread crock? There are cranberry ones in the outlet right now. Oh, but those don't have a lid.....hmmmm can you post a picture?

 

[janetupnorth]

Basically a casserole dish right?

 

[Shawnna]

Okay, I was going to paste a picture but can't get it to work. If you want to see what they look like go to Home & Garden Party - Home and browse the serving pieces. There are several styles. The newest is a beautiful pottery look, but it looks shorter and fatter than the style I have. Mine has apples on it, but it is available with sunflowers, pinecones, and sometimes with a snowman on it. It is not shaped like the DCB or any of our pieces. It is kind of like the stoneware crock on the outlet, but a lot bigger with a lid and handles. It is glazed inside and out. Its somewhat like the old butter churns, only smaller.

 

[Shawnna]

You can use the bean pot for cooking stew or beans in the oven...probably a lot more things...but I basically use it for keeping chili, stew, cheese dip, etc. warm after cooking it. It doesn't take up a lot of room on the table, so it works great for church dinners where everyone is bringing stuff.

bring back the coffee!!!!!

 

[pamperedtraci]

bring back the coffee!!!!!

Ditto! I don't drink coffee, but I sold a TON of it to my customers! My MIL bought some even though my FIL is allergic to cinnamon!! That's how good it was!!

 

[missyciccolella]

bring back the coffee!!!!!

My entire family stock piled this coffee before it was retired...my supply is gone and my mom is down to 1 bag of decaf only...please, please bring it back or put it on the outlet!

 

[SilverCeladon]

I would love a plain white Simple Additions round bowl. I need one so badly to go with my pasta bowl set-I broke mine the other day.

 

[ChefNic]

My entire family stock piled this coffee before it was retired...my supply is gone and my mom is down to 1 bag of decaf only...please, please bring it back or put it on the outlet!

Ditto the coffee comeback!
I have SEVERAL guests and host that stock piled it too before it was gone. and one of those guests/a friend - called the other day...more just to chat...but she did ask about the coffee!

 

[nathan81]

I want Microfiber dishclothes! I have a bunch of customers asking for them.

 

[cheflsg]

LOL!! I remember that I was SO excited about one thing for sure! But what it was I so cannot remember!

Me too!! One thing I put on the HO suggestion page was a round stone with a lip on it like the bar pans. My brother actually came up with that one! He likes to make deep dish pizzas.

I agree 100%!!! It would save the blades and keep them presentable at shows....

GREAT IDEA!!!
