Hostess Appreciation 2024

January 23, 2024
Blog

23 Jan

Hey there! We had my 22nd Annual Hostess Appreciation Party (HAP) this weekend! So much fun! And I actually got some sleep the night before. šŸ˜‰ More than an hour. If you know me, that’s good!

I have lots of pics to share, including project pics. I’ll start with our big group. We’re missing a couple people cuz I forgot to round everyone up until someone reminded me. (Thanks, Noel!!)

Before I let everyone get away, I told my Dazzling Demos Team to stick around for another pic:

Here are a couple projects we made. The colors and focus came from the SAB Softly Stippled DSP. You can earn the package with a $50 order.

Here’s all we used:

There’s one more project, but I forgot to take any pics. I’ll share later.

I am horrible at remembering to take pics. Every time. So I’ve been having my peeps take pics from an I Spy list. šŸ™‚ One of the requests was taking a pic with a new friend; another was to take a pic with a friend you met last year. New & old friends make me happy!

Here are some pics some of them shared with me.

Here are a few of the cards from Card Contest. (I forgot to take a pic of that, too.) Michelle Jager was the winner with her card–#1. Congrats, Michelle!

Marlene VanderZouwen with her Contest Card:

Marlene VanderZouwen & Jamie Rose finally met each other after only knowing each other from my Facebook Lives! each week for years! šŸ™‚ How fun!!

So I didn’t take any food pics! I did get a couple food pics from a couple people, but they were after everyone dug into it…not lookin’ so great! But I’ll tell you what all we had: homemade bbq meatballs, Irish Potatoes, green salad, veggie pizza, fruit salad, Apple Betty, Rice Crispie treats, Texas Sheetcake. It was delicious, if I do say so myself! And in case you didn’t already know, Todd helped me tons!! He always the Friday off work to help me make food. He specifically made the meatballs, Apple Betty and fruit salad. We worked together on the rest. Love that man!

I’ll be back with more from HAP later today.

Have an amazing day!!
