Last night fellow Mompreneur Dianne (www.saltychix.com) was on The Big Idea (yep, something is in the water on www.mompreneursonline.com ?cause we are all hot hot hot right now!)? She was on the American Dream Team so of course we were watching.? I was in the other room when my husband comes running in there saying “Grill Charms is on, Grill Charms is on!!”? We were DVRing it, so he rewound it and sure enough, they showed a spot of Grill Charms and said something to the effect “see former One minute to millions products from our show in
Peoria IL Thursday”.? At this point, I know NOTHING about it.? So today while my older daughter is at school, my best friend and I take the little ones to the Children’s Museum for some play time.? We then went to lunch and in the middle of my smoked salmon salad my phone rings.? I look at the number and it’s a 201 area code!!? 201 is the area code for NJ, where CNBC is located!!!? So I swallow the bite I have in my mouth and try very hard to tune out everything around me including my little one who’s struggling to eat her tomato soup while wearing a white shirt.? (What was I thinking when I ordered that for her!?)? It was the wonderful producer I worked with last week!? She says that they are taking 4 of the best past “One minute to millions” products on the road to
Peoria IL to do a segment where basically the entire town votes and critiques the products.? The “experts” had their say, now everyday American’s get to have theirs.? OMG!!!? “
America” is voting on Grill Charms!!!? Okay… I could blow off the harsh comments of 1 or 2 people, but “
America”??!!!? WOW, THE PRESSURE!!!? Basically, that’s about all I know, so I’ll be watching the show Thursday night at 10:00 just like everyone else wondering what in the world “
America” thinks about my “baby”.? I’m not sure my nerves can take it!? Well, I’ve got to run.? I have a mandatory vendor orientation for the food and wine festival today and have to leave in about an hour.? I’ll chat more tomorrow!!!?
