Makeup and The Tomboy

It's that time of year!!! Blueberries are in and we love to pick, eat, can and bake with them in this "Grandma's Attic Series" by Arleta Richardson ,  they are a wonderfully written set of books I enjoyed as a child and have shared with my kiddos.  Well reading these stories about Mable (main character) My chicken has realized that children then were expected to do more things, more mature things then now a days. Daily chores included cooking and cleaning for a 10 year old as well as what we now consider crafts for hobby.  The stories have inspired her to want to learn to bake, sew, quilt and crochet as well.  So after a delightful morning in the blueberry field we ventured to make a crumble. I will admit I hovered a bit, but kept to the side line while she did her thing and not only was it done it was done well.  The most important thing that happened was this little spike of confidence. That sense of accomplishment that everyone needs now and then....

So for all the Avon reps out there just trying to make some money while not spending a ton of it here's a little tip. ( I am sure this will work for other companies as well.)   Upcycle your sample boxes folks!  Keep one sample out of it and then fill the box with little goodies such as other samples, business cards, a flier etc.  Now you have a tiny little gift to give to people you meet. Say the girl at the drive through or cashier!  They take up very little space in your purse or car and people are delighted to get something little handed to them!       Does this look like the kind of job you can and want to do? Are you with a D.S. company but want more from the experience?  Avon is an amazing way to do that! Contact me for more info ore sign up on my site !
