Have You Pampered Your Chef Lately??

I went to my first Pampered Chef party this past Saturday. My friend, Alycia, was having one so we all went. Quinn and Buddy went upstairs to play with Alex, who is Quinn's BFF (best friend forever) and Ryan.

I had all intentions of taking pictures of all the Pampered Chef fun, but I was having too much fun to stop and take pictures.

The coordinator did her little talk about why she sells the product and why we should too. Then we got to do the fun stuff. She used some sort of roasting dish that can be used in the microwave to cook a whole chicken in 30 minutes (in the microwave). Then she baked a devil's food cake in a non-stick skillet in the oven.

While the chicken was roasting and the cake was baking, we participants got to "play" with all the cool utensils. (sorry in advance, but I don't remember all the names.) I used some sort of slicer to slice up bell peppers. We all got to take our aggressions out with the food chopper. I was really impressed with this garlic press, that diced up a garlic, while keeping the garlic skin inside!

Oh, and since I'm sure you'll ask this, I might as well tell you what I ordered. I ordered 3 different sets of bamboo spoons and spatulas. I've got one bamboo spoon that came free with a wok we bought several years ago. I love using it and the spoon sets were decently priced, so I got some more. Can't wait for them to get here.

Now the question is this....do I want to host my own party???

I'm just gonna jump right out here and ask you Kimberly, have you never been to a Pampered Chef party? From the sounds of it, it sounds like this was your first:)
I think I have been to 100 of them. If I am going to a home party, Pampered Chef would be the one I'd go to.

Yes, Heather...it was my first one. I even admitted that in the post. Yes I know, I'm behind the times....

How in the world did that happen??? I can't tell you how many I have been invited to, and I have hosted 2. I own a good number of items in the catalog, including that roaster that makes the chicken in 30 minutes. Did you get the recipe for that chicken? I asked my consultant for it because it doesn't seem to be on the PC website, but she is not the best with getting back to me! If I didn't already have so much to do, I'd be a consultant, because I love the product and I love to cook.

If you decide to have a party, let me know. I love PC and will probably order something. :) miss you! AL

Pampered Chef baking stones are the best! I also find it hard to believe you have never been to a party before. I like them because you can always find something you can use and you can usually find something reasonalby priced to order.

You probably don't remember but when you were about 4 or 5 years old you went with me to a Pampered Chef party at Aunt Helen's house. So this was not your 1st time.

Love ya

Mrs. Kimberly ( concerning your comment ),
My momma has already told me to look at her local store sales via internet and to bring my coupons in. :) If you know of any SUPER deals, feel free to tell me!
