Announcement!


You have all been begging me to reveal my new venture. Ok, so a few of you have been.
Drumroll please...
I have signed on a Tastefully Simple Independent Consultant! I am super excited about this! It is something that my friend Barb has been talking to me about for almost 3 years. I laughed for the first 2 years and really started to consider it in the last year. Honestly, it's not like I have tons of time to do this. But I LOVE the Tastefully Simple products and thought it would be fun! Like all things in life, it is what you make of it!
My mom first introduced me to Tastefully Simple about 3 years ago. She came to visit and brought beer bread (make with 7-up - not beer!) and spinach and herb dip. I was about 8 months pregnant with Bubba. I didn't know a Consultant, so I asked around a bit and no one else had a good connection. I was visiting a customer and saw she had some Tastefully Simple bags under her desk. Immediately, I said "Where did you get that?!" She gave me Barb's email address and my email to her went something like this:
You don't know me and I don't know you. But I'm 8 months pregnant and crazy. I need some beer bread and spinach & herb dip. Now.
Ok, so maybe that was enhanced for dramatic purposes, but that's pretty much what I told her. Barb has been a very sweet friend ever since.
My goal is to have fun with this. Period. If I can earn some cash and get the products that I use and love at a discount - score! I probably won't be able to do many taste-testing parties because of Trophy Hub's schedule and the tater tots. And everyone is just so busy these days. But everyone loves Tastefully Simple and catalog parties can be almost as fun! Food always makes a great gift too!
If you have never had Tastefully Simple products, I would highly recommend the beer bread and spinach & herb dip. :-) The Almond Pound Cake is a very popular item and always a crowd pleaser. Most of the products only require you add one or two ingredients and most of them are found right in your kitchen (milk, water, butter, etc). There are also several products that you can use in your everyday cooking - seasonings, sauces, etc.
If you would like to place an order, you can do so right on the site or contact me and I'll do it for you! I even accept credit cards. High tech - huh??
Thanks to all of you who have known about my little secret and have been supportive!
