And Mark, you kwsher and hrfdez are some really great enablers...and really great about giving helpful feedback, too. So I do have some helpers out there, even if you guys aren't helping fill up those stupid vials. Speaking of which....JUST KIDDING

You need to have some perogie parties - invite people over for dinner but before they eat.....just a few sample vials to fill. If you don't know, a perogie party is where you get a dozen or so babas together to make a ton of really delicious but labour intensive food like perogies or cabbage rolls. Its part social part labour and every body goes home with food. Or the next time some DFS members pass through and want to meet up, show them the operation and have them fill a few hundred samplesSmile - The artisan experience

Haha, 37 samples is roughly translated to 20 minutes of fumbling around in the drawers and cursing, then 5 more minutes of cursing while I try to remember where I set down all the samples.

So, really, the takeaway is a lot of cursing.

You might be onto something here. I just gave two bottles to a buddy of mine who is a freelancer who has seen his work kind of dry up lately. I'm thinking I should've put him to work. But then again, I would get so behind on podcasts if I were to let someone else do the work.

Although a perogie party sounds amazing. It's a good thing I'm still full from lunch, because that would have my stomach rumbling. And way, way more logical than a potluck dinner. It's nice to have conversation during mundane tasks...or podcasts. (Shut up about the podcasts already, Shawn!)

Ha, well, if the wife says so, then who am I to argue! It'll be out on Monday, but it's a permanent addition to the line up, so no rush.

Most importantly, thanks and I'm really glad you enjoy them!
