My daughter told me today that she made a bakeover last night from the flour mix she received in her Mother's Day tote bag gift. She loves the flour mix!!!! Wants to order it in bulk. She said the whole wheat mixture was ground so fine it baked up like white flour. Go MaryJane!!! You know how to do it right.

It is really cute!! wish I could sew like that from a pattern. Your friend should be very happy with her gift, and if for some reason she isn't, then I will be that friend.HA.

Has anyone made the apron from the pattern included in the tote?
I made one this morning to give to my friend with the tote as she doesn't sew.
I think I did ok, what do you think?
I enlarged the pattern the old fashioned way.
I drew a 1/4" grid on the photo copy of the pattern and then drew a 1" grid on freezer paper and transfered the pattern to the large grid.
It's was fun for such a cold rainy day!

Mine came today. I LOVE it too!! And it is green...my favorite! it will be a perfect summer purse or project bag. I LOVE tote bags anyway...my girls oohed and aahhed over it. The extra magazine will go to my sis in law who is moving here to town on Tuesday..a little housewarming gift..with a plate of cookies and some balloons..the kids and I have it all planned.
I can't wait to try to budget mix too. The kids and I will have to make a bakeover this weekend for supper while husband is gone to Calif...a yummy veggie one would be good.

The Tote is wonderful!
I ordered it as a gift, but I'm having a hard time telling myself I really have to give it away!
Maybe I need to order another one for me!

Ooh!!! Mother's Day gift....good idea!!! I can insist that they let me order that for me and leave it at that!!! Great thinking, thanks for the idea!!! (I can usually figure out an angle to get what I "really" want! LOL)

I broke down and ordered the Tote Bag today for my daughter for Mother's Day. If I cannot have it (I bought the purse) at least she can!

Yes they are very nice there at the MJ farm, I also have talked to Johanna. The other day when I called, I forgot about the time difference, so the girls weren't into work yet, had a nice talk with Nick, he was on his way to town with a fork lift to pick up all the magazines, said he would take my order, but I assured him I would call back or order online, that he had enough to do.
Should be getting my order in the next few days, will let you know how I like it.

I called the farm, too, and got my magazine really fast. I love calling the farm....Johanna answered and she called out to Nick in the background, and I felt like I was really there. They are so nice.
I have been through the magazine twice now and am deciding which recipe to try first. I hope the tote bag supply is a large one, because I want to order it when I can afford to buy something else!

I posted this somewhere else, but I've GOT to figure out how to fit an order into my budget soon!!! I have actually been dreaming about MJF products because I want to try them so badly!!! I dreamt I was walking in my local Publix grocery store and saw a HUGE display of MJF products and I just went crazy buying them!!!
If I were rich....
But I'm not, so I'll try some "soon"-ish...and I can hardly wait until then!!! lol

Had to do it, ordered the tote bag, and the bakeover sampler, some chillover powder and some peasant tomato soup. The new mazazine has so many good things in it, I want to try a lot of them. Really had to add a lot of things to my reg. grocery list too. Also by ordering the bakeover sampler I get the pan for cooking them, so thought that was a good way to go.

Gee thanks, Jenny! :) My hubby already looked at the purse and at first he thought it was a giveaway, because it is kinda papery. When he found out I paid for it, he just kinda looked at me. "But," I said," I got the new magazine free for having a big order!"
Just found the tote bag, and it is so pretty! Darn! I may have to spend more $ now. Maybe I could share with my daughter.....

I have the purse too..and use it all the time. Handy since it is waterproof for taking things to baseball games and like that...okay to sit on the ground and not worry about..wipes clean. I think you need both! (arn't I helpful?????)

Got my purse when I returned from vacation. I love it! Now I have to find the tote bags you are all talking about. Does this mean I got a purse when I could have had a tote bag full of goodies? Hm.....
