Their travel expenses to get me there would have been like $10. But then, I might have eaten the difference in sample food...<br><br>I'm glad you all had fun, at least. I'll stick with my Skippy peanut butter, thank you very much, but if you wanna mail me some of those cookies along with a jar of yours, I would be willing to really try to like it more and be jealous.

I'm sure it is always very difficult for women with small children to leave their children for networking events, but I am sure that you really do take home so much that it makes you a better woman, and therefore a better mother.

B. The pictures in this post are fantastic. Did Kraft have a professional photographer on-site?

C. I totally understand your sentiments about traveling. I've been invited to over 6 events this past year and – so far – I've turned down them all. It's so hard for me to leave my girls – especially in this “season” of life when they are so young.

I love the brief trips away but I'm also always so glad to get home and see my girls again. :) Sounds like a great time – and you were in wonderful company! :)
