Hi Everyone,
After about 7 years of doing different pp I have decided to have a break. I have been around the block here once or twice and had a laugh recently with Snazza about how many posts I have made while on the forum. While there are not alot of us still on here from the original first 50 it is still a wonderful site to catch up those oldies!! ( I mean this in a nice way girls LOL!!) I have got lots of wonderful friends here so I will still be checking back on a regular basis to see what everyone is up to. I will still be buying form fellow pp's as I just love the easy way of shopping!
I am now on a new adventure of owning my own homebased business with a web pressence along side so now the learning starts on the other foot of being a business owner. I have learnt so much just in the last week or so it is amazing, scary and FUN all at once. Hopefully this small neglected business will get the love and attention it needs. This year seems to brought alot of changes and fingers crossed for the better.
Hopefully in a week or so I will be fully setup and be able to announce the business and website to you all. Along with some special offers just for pp members as I will be adding a service to my business for small businesses like pplanners.
So stay tuned and a keep posting, chatting and making challenges for youselves and others but most of all have FUN!!
Cheers
Janine
PS - thanks Sharyn, Ren, Colleen, Melinda and Erin for all of your help, support and friendship - you girls are great!!

Hey There Bud,
I want you to know that if anyone can make your new business work... its you. I have great memories of our time in the Pond which for some of us was a bit of a stepping stone up for things to come.
I look forward to watching you grow and blossom in to what i think you will be a natural at :)
Cant wait for your big announcement re the website....keep in touch :)
Good Luck!!!
Kind regards
Sharyn aka Snazza

Hey Janine
All the best with your new venture. You will do well as you know the meaning of hard work.
Guys, Foodie Parties is sad to lose Janine. She loved our products ! Cooked up some great treats for our meetings ( think....mini lemon meringue pies and Caramelised Balsamic Marinated Spare Ribs) and was very helpful in letting our Rookies know some of the ways of Party Plan. I can't wait to hear about her success in the very near future.
Cheers and all the best,
Mel and Meals xxx

Thanks Girls!!
It is very exciting to get feedback especially positive feedback.
Think gifts in general as I am giving Woolworth's mud cakes (YUMMO and cheap too!!) to friends for chrissy presents with a personalised cake topper on top. The turn around is super fast too so not too late for chrissy!! But will post more in shameless over the weekend.
PS- great for expos etc or special sales events as they come in cupcake/cookie size too!!
