Come On Friday!!

Friday is not only the official start to most people's weekend but it will also be the day that I receive my TWO large boxes from Tastefully Simple that contains my Blast Off Kit! I'm really feeling like a kid on Christmas as I TRY to patiently await it's arrival! I don't think I've been this excited in a long time. :)

Also, something happened the day after I signed up that I think is truly one of a kind. Now keep in mind that I have worked for two other direct selling companies (lets just say they both sold different types of bags..) while there wasn't really anything wrong with either company; I never received what I got from Tastefully Simple after being signed up for only 1 day.

It was just a simple....Phone Call! In the world today that is soo hooked to technology, I found it rather special to receive a phone call from a lady at headquarters thanking me of joining and making sure I didn't have any questions or problems. She didn't try to rush me off the phone either. I was truly shocked and surprised. If this doesn't say something about this awesome company..I don't know what would.

Better yet, I actually do...but I will save that for another post. :)

Stay tuned for when I receive my Blast Off Kit  - I plan to share all the goodies I receive with you!

Cinnamon Muffin Melt Mix!

Can You Say Yummy! Tastefully Simple's Cinnamon Muffin Melt has to be one of the BEST tasting and truly "simple" muffin's I've ever made. I had never had these before purchasing a box and making them this morning, but now my whole family is hooked! ;) Here's how it went - - -


Inside the box were only TWO bags - does it get any more SIMPLE? :)


This was the Large Bag (The actual muffin mix) - all I had to do was add water and stir!


I made Mini Muffins (You can also make the regular size)
30 mini muffins total!! amazing! :)


To get the Cinnamon effect - all I had to do was Melt one stick of butter,
spread on the warm muffin's right out of oven and dunk
those delights right into the cinnamon mixture!
(that was the smaller bag pictured above)


All finished!! :)
(You KNOW they are awesome when my 3 year old would
not stop eating them!)


Price - 22 oz. box - only $6.69!!

You Be the JUDGE! - Buy & Try
Simply Ask me How to Order! :)



Let's Go!

Welcome to my Tastefully Simple Blog!
(it never hurts to do a little self-promotion and share a wonderful product with people; right??)

I've decided to jump into the world of direct selling - mainly to have fun, meet new friends and explore my personal potential; so what better way to do all of this while at the same time earning some cash! In the world today, unfortunately - money is not easy to come by and being a stay at home mother (at the moment; I do work as a preschool teacher but am currently putting that on hold until summer) of two very young children and the wife to a hard working and extremely under paid police officer; I've made the choice to help our money woes by contributing to our wonderful  yet needy cause called - a family.

I am joining on the awesome date of February 14th - yes, this is my Valentine's present to myself, and well my family too. Isn't that awesome that one simple decision could and can possible not only affect you but others? :) I LOVE THIS!

After I join and receive my BLAST OFF KIT - I will share it here with you. Product by product! :)

In the meantime - I have already purchased some Tastefully Simple products simply because I was so anxious to try them that I will make and share here with you; step by step.

I can't wait to share this journey with you! :)
