2 down, 1 to go!

That's right! Another bridal shower today...minus the 'surprise' element. Hee hee. This time though it was hosted by a Pampered Chef consultant. See, here's the thing, when I first heard of Pampered Chef, I think of this.

False. Our consultant was fabulous! Although the jalapeno pizza poppers were a little warm (and no, I don't mean spicy...AKA: crispy), no sunscreen was required. Meaning: no tanning. Meaning: happy Whitney. Anyways, because of the wonderful people in attendance, I get FREE stuff!! Wooo! I'm a Mennonite; therefore, I strive toward attaining anything FREE, even if it means scoring a deal where I end up being soaked for a cool $50. Sad, I know, but I call it thrifty and/or moochy. :)

Moving on. I get $65 of FREE goods, PLUS 2 items at 50% off! In Pampered Chef lingo, that means 'You and your guests must spend $400 combined total on exact 27 items of stoneware, while choosing 3 different size paring knives, along with an apple slicer and vegetable peeler to qualify for the above deal'. TRANSLATION: FREE STUFF!!!

So, thank you, ladies! From the bottom of my wallet!
