Meet my other Relevant Sponsor

IF you saw my post on Wednesday you were aware I had two sponsors for the Relevant Conference coming up! Today I am crushing on Joanna Barbuto! She represents Premier Designs Jewelry! I have a jewelry box full of her products. The Christian theme runs throughout the line and that is what appeals to me!

Joanna Barbuto is a woman with many interests. Presently, representing Premier Designs, she takes the beautiful jewelry into homes and businesses with the goal to enrich the lives of each and every person she meets. Premier Designs is a privately owned, debt-free company based in Dallas, Texas. The owners started the company 26 years ago to help raise money to support mission work. Biblically based, Premier Designs believes in service, honesty, and providing a great product. She admits that it is a wonderful bonus to be able to wear all of her samples. Being in the jewelry business for over 4 years has given her a lot to choose from! Earning 50% of everything she sells, has been a blessing in her life as well. Joanna retired from the industrial design field to start a decorative painting company, Picture Perfect Design in 1998. Her online portfolio is accessible on Facebook under the company name. Both professions give her the flexibility to make her own hours, which was important when her two daughters were younger and also today, now that she is involved with her church’s outreach team. She and her husband, John, live in Warwick, NY and have successfully raised daughters Jamie, now married, and Jillian who is in college and living in New Paltz, NY.

She has given me some beautiful jewelry items to giveaway at the Relevant Conference! Attendees - be ready with your Twitter handles!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
