Thank you! My Pampered Chef party was a success (want to see alll the goodies I’m getting?) Plus the winner of the final $25 gift certificate to Tropical Traditions

Thank you so much!

I was able to achieve just over $1400 in sales so every order counted. I earned $300 in free product and four 1/2 price items due to this amount, as well as two stoneware pieces at 60% off for hosting a show. And anything else I wanted at a 30% discount.

I am so excited!

Here are all of the goodies I was able to receive… Continue reading

Pampered Chef Facebook Party Monday, Feb 13th.

I have been getting asked more and more questions about stoneware this week since posting my 20% off stoneware sale party last week.

Many of you already know the benefits of stoneware, and a lot of you are curious about it especially after seeing the best pizza crust ever and my photo of carrot cake muffins (recipe posted this week!).

I decided to open up Monday night, 9pm EST, on Nourishing Treasures’ Facebook Page as the official Pampered Chef Facebook Party. We can discuss the benefits of stoneware, what pieces fit your baking habits, and talk about the new kitchen gadgets Pampered Chef has to offer that save you time in the kitchen. Continue reading

It’s a Pampered Chef Party and YOU Are Invited for 20% off Stoneware!

Yesterday I shared 7 Reasons Stoneware is Superior and told you today I would be letting you know how you could get 20% off stoneware from Pampered Chef.

I don’t know about you, but I have gotten to the point where I have more online friends than real-life friends! (Geek alert!) It’s probably the age we live in. Although in-home parties are fun, online parties are growing in popularity. Shopping from home is convenient!

Soooooo, I decided to have a Pampered Chef party, and I’m inviting you!

WHERE: Kimlyn’s Pampered Chef website. If the link doesn’t take you directly there, click “Shop Online” on the top right section of the website (it’s the row farthest to the right, on the bottom)
HOST: Me, Lea Harris - you’ll need to enter my name in order to join my party

Here are the pieces available for the 20% off deal… Continue reading

7 Reasons Stoneware is Superior

I prefer cast iron for cooking, but baking? Give me stoneware, or give me death! I love using my stoneware for making everything from Pumpkin Cookies and Coconut-Orange Macaroons to Chia Banana Bread and Granola (no burning!).

Reason #1 - Perfect Crusts

My favorite reason for using stoneware is the amazing crusts that they produce. I am so glad to have white, soggy bread, pie, and pizza crusts behind me. Now, I have nicely-browned crusts that hold their shape.

Reason #2 - Magazine Muffins

Not only are they browned on the top, but the entire muffin has a nice golden crust to it. They stand nicely on their own without slumping over.

Reason #3 - Non-Stick Surface

Once you season your stoneware, you’ll have a non-stick surface that won’t wear out. Unlike Teflon, which non-stick surface peels off the pan, stoneware lasts. Continue reading

My Favorite Kitchen Tools, Part 1: The Food Chopper

This is Part 1 in a series about My Favorite Kitchen Toys Tools.

Today I want to talk about one of the most-used tools in my kitchen…

The Food Chopper

I am sure this handy gadget is familiar to you. If you’ve ever been to a Pampered Chef party, I am sure the hostess has pulled this out at one point in the show for you to drool over.

Let me tell you, I use my Food Chopper every day. In fact some days I find myself having to wash it so I can use it again.

I like that it’s easy to grab, doesn’t require electricity, and is great for small portions that aren’t worth getting my food processor dirty for.

Here are some of the ways I use my Food Chopper: Continue reading
