Winter 2010
Just a quick drop-in to say "hey"!
I haven't much time at the computer but wanted to update with a few thoughts of what might be goin' on.
I have an urgent need to be getting some work....like work where you actually get paid!
Tossing some ideas around with friends, and have come up with a couple of possibilities.
Thinkin' about a 'personal chef, menu planner, pantry organizer, REAL food shopper, etc',
kind of a job.
At our CSA farm there are new folks joining every season and many of them have absolutely no idea how to prepare some of the more unusual veggies.
I could offer my services as a "one time only" thing, or a series of perhaps 4 sessions.
Or...someone who comes in once a week to shop, prep, and cook a meal.
OR...something along the line of a Tupperware party, but instead of selling products, I sell "how-to's"...
For example...how to make a pot of chicken noodle soup from scratch.
OR....
How to create a healthy pantry...
Anyways....just a few thoughts racing around this ol' gal's head.
Ooh...how about preparing healthy, good-for-you meals for those that are house-bound by illness or are recovering from surgery?
I even have a few ideas for a business name!
How's about...
"The Hungry Family"
or...
"Just Cook It!"
or...
"Eat Right-At Home!"
or...
"Sound Meals"
or...
"House Call Suppers"
I could market myself as someone who could come into your home and analyze how you WANT to eat, as opposed to HOW you are currently eating.
Some folks just need a little nudge to send them in the right direction.
I have 40 years of homemaking experience under my belt, with the last 8 or so focusing on healthy, organic, etc.
What do you all think?
As a plus, I have been told by our CSA farm owners that I could be somehow connected to the farm as an independent contractor, using the farm and the experience I have there as a teacher/assistant as a reference point.
I'm excited, but nervous.
Any ideas from you all would be greatly appreciated!
xoxo,
Cindy
