If Only Pampered Chef was a Person

Who hasn’t dreaded hearing the question, “What’s for dinner?”

After a long day of working and battling traffic to get home, that’s the last thing I wanted to hear. Wouldn’t it be nicer to be greeted with, “We have dinner!”? No, instead the same question night after night after night. And it’s not so much the cooking of it but the thinking about what to cook. No wonder take-out and eating out are so popular.

Dinnertime is hard. 

There was a time when at-home parties were popular - Tupperware, Mary Kay, Avon, and Pampered Chef. Friends would be invited for a night out without the kids and the representative would have a beautiful display of products and then show how they all worked to make life easier or better somehow. After a few glasses of wine, we were buying items that seemed like a good idea at the time.

Well, here’s a better idea. Instead of Pampered Chef products, sell an actual Pampered Chef. The representative could show a beautiful display of all the food items to be cooked for dinner. Now that would make life easier! And what a money maker! We wouldn’t even need the wine.
