Brian and I held our first Wildtree parties this weekend. Wildtree suggests that you hold two launch parties, back to back, to give all your friends and family a 
chance to join in the fun. It is also a great chance to try out all the products in the hostess samples and experience a Wildtree party from the hostesses’ perspective.
First off, we discovered that we like pretty darn much everything from Wildtree. There had been a couple of the samples in the hostess packs that I wasn’t too interested in…. then I got to try them…. Oh, Yum! Like the Dill Dip…. I’m okay with dill dip… I just don’t usually buy/use dip, so I wasn’t expecting to get excited about it. Wow! Everybody at the party went wild for the Dill Dip. I was more excited about using the leftover dip than using it as a “dip.” I used some of the leftover samples from the first party to experiment with a few new recipes. Crunchy Dill Chicken Bites Recipe… coming soon!
I fell in LOVE with the Hearty Spaghetti Sauce Blend. Holy cats! Just add a can of crushed tomatoes and let simmer…. SO good! Good-Bye spaghetti sauce in a jar!
Brian really liked the Taco Seasoning. We’re kinda nacho fanatics…. so we’ll be adding that to our pantry too!
I wasn’t crazy about the Heavenly Chocolate Mousse at first… the directions say to let it sit for a couple of hours before serving… so I made it the day before and let it sit….but it still tasted bitter to me. I almost didn’t serve it at the second party, but I tried it once more and “whew” it was good! I’m not sure if it was something I did, or if it just needed more time for the sugars and chocolate to “meld.” I might have developed a little bit of an addiction for the Chocolate Mousse and Annie’s Organics GF Cocoa and Vanilla Bunnies!
We are so thankful to all our friends and family that came to our parties to support our new endeavor. Spending time with friends and family (and meeting new friends) was a huge portion of the reason we joined Wildtree. Dinner parties! What better excuse to get together and hang out?
