National Sales Meeting

Something about traveling makes me want to go get new luggage, travel size everything, my clothes dry cleaned and possibly a new outfit for the trip. Chris was preparing to go to his first National Sales Meeting which is located in Orlando, Florida. Approximately 8,000 store managers and sales reps travel across the country to this seminar. As you can imagine I was super excited to make sure my hubs was SUPER prepared for his first business trip!

First I (of course) raided the Wal-mart "travel size everything" isle!


I was also instructed to get a few protein bars just in case the food was as bad (apparently it's bad every year). I then proceeded to make sure Chris looked as professional as possible. Knowing he'd have to travel with a few business casual outfits and a suit I went in search of a garment bag.



Perfect! So I made sure to take his slacks and shirts to the cleaners so they would be starched a ready for travel.



Orlando bound! His boss even asked him to give a speech! I'm so proud!! Hurry home to me sweetums!

Of course I can't sign off without a little mention of food. Last weekend we had some friends over for dinner so I was determined to make even the bread from scratch. Chris's mom and aunt have an old family recipe that is to DIE for! Rosetta's bread is the most wonderfully magnificent piece of carbohydrate you ever put in your mouth. Of course since it requires yeast and rising time the recipe is a little intimidating.



It didn't turn out with the exact same texture as the Bendel's but it still tasted YUMMY! I also wanted to try my first pork tenderloin. I found a recipe for herbed apricot pork tenderloin.



I forgot to take a picture with it was done cooking, but it was so tender and a great meal to have if you're entertaining!

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Much Love
WB
