Marvellous Monday

A friend of mine put it right! Marvellous Monday! What has been so marvellous about it? The snow that was falling this morning because I did not have to go any place right away. I did venture out to Farm Boy to pick up a few groceries that I needed to start an order that I have to have done by Friday. Tonight I made some really tasting Peach, Pear Bananaram ohh so good, and I also made some beginner chili. I will be posting photos on Wednesday's post. (keep a lookout for them)

Marvellous because Baby Yums is in it's 4th week and I've thus far meet a great group of people who support me and keep rooting for me to keep trucking forward with my future dream. So far I've falling in love with doing the work. It's a job on top of my full time job of being a Mother and a Wife.

Marvellous Monday because I'm thankful for all my fans on fb and followers on twitter and my new customers and my existing customers.

I will see you all tomorrow on tweet tweet Tuesday! I hope your Monday was Marvellous!

Referral Perk Friday!

To my fellow Friends, Family, & C0-workers & future or current Referral's!

After going to a well informative meeting I've learned that there are going to be people who believe in you and what your dreams are and there are going to be people who will try and bring you down. A great saying that I heard was You can either walk beside me and support me or you can walk away because I don't want any negativity for my dream. As I'm a wahm I want to strive and make a living like everyone else.

Here is a little questionnaire for you to take a look at If you feel you have fellow family member, friends, Co-workers or future/current referrals yourself let me know. I have a great incentive for a personal referral. If the person(s) you referred to me place an order with Baby Yums I will give you a $5.00 gift card at Tim Hortons my way of saying Thank-you for your referral.

Here is a little questionnaire that you can answer copy-paste it into an e-mail and fwd to info@babyyums.com



1. Name 4 Relatives who you think would benefit from Baby Yums and would be interested in the service (could be aunts, uncles, cousins, sisters, brothers,)

2. Name 4 people you do business with (bank, store, salon, ect.) who again would benefit from Baby Yums

3. Got 2 friends who are a young family or have a future bundle of joy on the way?

4. Co-workers? Spouse's Co-workers? who would be interested

Just a great way for my own Family, Friends, Co-workers & current/future referrals to support me in my endeavor to make Fresh Homemade baby food. I'd like to Thank-you for your support and referrals & walking beside me at this time.

Week 3 in the works...

Week 3 in the works. Connecting to other local businesses is key. Trying to know people that are already know for their product and have a great client/customer following. I'm hitting all the right notes meeting and communicating with great people & mom's alike. Week 3 and I feel like I've hit a wall with all these great contacts for marketing.

I write blogs of my success on starting my at home
Baby Yums so I can one day look at this and say to myself "remember the days" when I wanted my kitchen full of Baby Yums orders. This is the calm before the storm. It's a much "looking fwd" to storm of orders that I'm looking for and I can certainly feel it.

This weekend I'm a sponsor for
Kangaroo Fitness. Kangaroo Fitness is participating in the Ride for Heart Spin-a-thon on February 26, 2011 - a fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario. I'm donating a $60.00 gift certificate to 1 lucky winner. I'm excited to share my Baby Yums food to one lucky winner. To me word of mouth is key. I want family members, friends, and co-workers to spread the word of Baby Yums and to tell them it's a healthy alternative to jarred food.

I'm signing off feel free to post my blog on your fb, twitter or e-mail it out :)

Cheers!

Tweet Tweet it's Tuesday!

Tweet Tuesday is follow Baby Yums on twitter day!

Hard to believe that almost a year ago today I had my youngest son who will be the big 1 as of tomorrow.

After having my first son I was a strong believer in making my own baby food for both of my children. I did cross a bridge and think to myself this is so much work, but truth be told I enjoy making baby food. I know my children are getting a good meal & a healthy choice rather then the store bought jarred food. Even in a crunch I bought jarred food once for my oldest and he would not eat it for the life of him. From that day forward I vowed I'd never buy a jar of baby food again and I never did.

1 year after my youngest son still enjoys his Baby Yums & my oldest son who is 2.5 years old enjoys his pre made baby Yums lunches.

Twitter followers please become a fan of Baby Yums on Facebook spread the word to Family, Friends & Co-Workers~ feel free to e-mail info@babyyums.com for any questions you may have!

Have a Tweet night ;)
Baby Yums!

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog "Baby Yums"
I'd like to take a moment and thank you all for your support, and interest in following me and being a customer. I'm looking forward to making your babies food. Baby Yums was thought up after being on maternity leave with my second son. I felt that as a mother of two it was important to feed them fresh homemade food.
I've decided to give my services to parents who don't have the time to make their own baby food but want a healthier choice and that's having your child eat fresh homemade baby food. Baby yums is a business out of my house. I prepare all the food myself and it's then packaged and labeled. I do prepare food "made to order" this way it's fresh.
If you know of anyone who is expecting, or has a child and maybe interested in my service please pass along my information.
I have a great website with loads of information it's http://www.babyyums.com I can also be e-mailed at info@babyyums.com I look forward to my future blogs and having fun with making baby food, meeting your little ones and I'd love to get photos posted of your little ones enjoying some Baby Yums.
