Pulaski County 4-H Pampered Chef Online Party

 

 


Today is the last and final day to place your Pampered Chef order to support Pulaski County 4-H.

Thank you to everyone that have made a purchase. We are 1/3 of the way to our intended goal of $1,000 in sales, thus earning 30%. Please share with family and friends.

I can highly recommend the Pampered Chef Pizza Stone, https://www.pamperedchef.com/shop/100251?queryID=4cc8e445a8b5f54a707a255f234fe50e , which we use weekly for either homemade or frozen pizza. Our pizza stone is still going 25 years later. (Chris)

And I can also recommend the chopper, https://www.pamperedchef.com/shop/2585?queryID=a2646011bb0fa1f13111436a8126996d , especially for onions. (Chris)

Thank you in advance for your support. Chris Lichty & Cynthia Hurst
