Colorado is home so I love it here...though I had forgotten how chilly the winters can be! 

So glad to hear that things are going well for your business Kathy!

I`m sitting at work getting paid to chat with you fine people after waking up late and taking a cold shower and skipping breakfast in order to clock in on time.  I`m hungry and tired and ready for 5:00!!!

Wow! StartupBucks is sooo quiet! I just thought I'd pop in. Melissa - great to hear that you found such a great career!

What's new with me... We just sold our house in NH and moved just outside of Nashville last week! My business is closed temporarily until we figure out our next step - most likely opening a store. I'm nervous of course, but I also know that this is the next step. The store will not only carry my dip mixes, but also other products we're working on plus products from other companies. We will specialize in gluten free and allergen free foods. We will still sell online and to stores. Oh, and by "we" I mean my husband Ron and I. :-)

I hope you are all doing well! Happy Holidays!

Hi Chris -

Yes, I can actually hear crickets chirping here. 

How exciting to hear about all your big changes.  Thrilled for you! 

Still loving my chocolate business - so much fun and so nice to never worry about where my next Chocolate Fix will come from.  LOL

We need to get this place hopping again.  Where is that Swaynester?  He's all we need to bring the group back to life. He he! :)

How funny you say that,Chris.  When the notice showed up in my inbox that there was a post here, I thought almost the same thing.  It has been a while since I've been here or gotten any notices.  Glad to hear things are going well for you.  I was just wondering not too long ago if you had sold your house yet.

Wow, Chris!  Look at that supermodel hair there!!

I'm so glad you're loving your new location and that you are back in business!  I hope your family is doing well and having a lovely Christmas season.

I am still in Colorado doing the Dove Chocolate Discoveries thing.  I have certainly found my calling - I'm actually #1 in my city (Colorado Springs) and in the top 4 in the state in terms of rank.  I just was featured in my company's newsletter which makes me smile, too!  :)

We really need to get this place buzzing again...or maybe we just need to connect on Facebook if you're there.  I have a page for my business with fun recipes and such at www.facebook.com/chocorocco and I have a personal facebook page as well, but not sure I want to broadcast it all over the internet...

Cheers,
MeLissa

Thanks for the nice compliment on the hair. LOL It's easier to be cute down south than it is in the cold north. Wink

We found each other on FB already. It's great to "see" you! Congrats on your business. I'm glad your'e doing well!

I took a big step today. I'm contacting co-packers. I think I'm ready to get this thing out of my house and onto big store shelves. :)

Hey Guys!  Just dropping a quick note to say Hi, and it's awesome to see you still going strong! 

Almost four years since I dropped the food ideas and started my security company.  We are doing well and now expanding onto the east coast! 

I keep startupbucks notifications on, since its so nice to see you guys on once and a while!

Oooh, how exciting!!!  I am back to doing allergy treatments so maybe I'll be able to try one of your yummy mixes sometime in the future.  Actually, we just did one today and so my meal choices for today are pretty much (due to other allergies and food preferences) made up of...potatoes.  Yep.  That's it.  :)

Keep me posted on how the "co-packing" goes!!!
