A Day for Women Seminar

I recently attended a seminar called A Day for Women. It was a great seminar for connecting and networking but not for sales. I still need to find the right shows to present my products in. I need more exposure but not sure where yet. I'm still looking and open for ideas. I could be in lots of shows but I don't want to waste time if it doesn't bring in sales. I'm open for suggestions.

Here is my booth, it was smaller than we expected. So next time need to know more information before attending.

This is very good, it could use some veggies and more seasoning though. I put ketsup on my serving and it gave it more flavor. Others have suggested taco seasoning and peas and carrots. It's a great basic recipe just adjust as needed but don't forget to recalculate the points for added ingredients. :)

Papa Goes to the Father-Daughter Dance

Saturday was the annual Father-Daughter dance in Lawton, OK. My granddaughter LaRyn didn't have a date because her daddy was away at a school so she asked her Papa to take her to the dance. Of course he said yes.

Now when our girls where little there was no event called the Father-Daughter dance. So my girls missed out and so did my husband. Lasting memories were made as this was papa's only chance to take a granddaughter to a dance.

He did get the opportunity to dance with his daughters at their weddings, but it would have been fun to take them to a dance when they were little too.


Cute pose of LaRyn and Papa before the dance.

Papa doing the limbo. He was such a good sport to participate because he doesn't like to dance in the first place but to do the Limbo and then fall was too funny.
