She asked us to bring business/contact cards to pass out and if we wanted, a small sample of a specialty from our blog. So of course I am now freaking out. I do not (nor have I even thought about making) business/contact cards. I really would love to have a logo for the blog and thankfully I have a daughter is a talented graphic designer (see here for her winning t-shirt design). I'm hoping she'll have some time to help me come up with something before Saturday!
The other item I can take care of, a sample of something from my blog. I wanted something that might include a unique ingredient and yet something that most people would enjoy. I settled on some cinnamon "roasted" almonds and decided to make some walnuts for the first time as well. My house smells delicious right now! Looking forward to bagging these up in some cute penguin bags for the ladies.
I'm hoping I don't forget to take pictures so I can post a follow-up. I'm also a little nervous, as much as I always long to make new friends, it is definitely a step out of my comfort zone (I am a strong introvert).
Any suggestions on a logo for my blog?
Laura, it was so nice to meet you today! The nuts are delicious, by the way. My 6-year-old thinks so too.
ReplyDeleteIt was so great to meet you today Laura! I'm so happy you came out and we had the chance to chat over coffee and bathroom visits. :) Can't wait to get together again! Take care and have a great weekend..
ReplyDeleteEllie, it was so nice to chat with you today as well! So glad you and your 6 year old are enjoying the nuts (they are organic as well, forget to mention that yesterday). My daughter was excited that I had some leftover bags so she could eat some, too :)
ReplyDeleteLauren, great to finally meet you in person as well, can't wait til the next one!
Laura - it was so great to meet you on Saturday! I agree with Ellie, those nuts are delicious and are getting me though my 3am snack struggle at work!
ReplyDeleteSteph- So good to meet you as well, and so glad the nuts are getting you through the night! The recipe is super easy, you just need a little patience and an arm that can stir for a while :) I would think they would keep for a while in an airtight container (but they never last more than a few days here for me to find out!).
ReplyDeleteSo great meeting you at the meet up! I scarfed the nuts down in like 4 seconds. Love it! :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I totally understand, they go fast :) It was nice to meet you as well!
ReplyDeleteJust realized I didn't link this post to the recipe for the nuts, so fixed that tonight (and made another batch since I gave all of the last ones away :)
ReplyDeleteI nominated you for the Liebster Award! http://itsaharleyyylife.com/liebster-award/
