And so the story begins ... a kitchen consultant was born.

I had picked up a few hours working the front desk at the park district.  One day, a co-worker handed me a post card invite to a Cooking Show that she was hosting. I had a vague memory of my girl friend Amy saying "if you ever get invited to one of those, go, because they have GREAT food!" So I called up my friend and invited her to go with me.  We loved what we bought and Amy and I later decided to host our own party together. The consultant watched me as I stared with my mouth wide open the whole party -  I wanted everything!  When she told me that she thought I would make a good consultant, I was very flattered, but there was no way I could add another job! Four odd jobs and a small baby were enough.

Six months went by when Consultant Jeanette sent me a newsletter in the mail and said she would love to talk to me more about starting. With Christmas on the way, and still no money in the bank, I talked to my husband about this opportunity and he said what every woman wants to hear "if that would make you happy, give it a try!"
