Congratulations Julie-Ann

[Elements]

This maybe a little premature as December's issue of Home Beautiful only made it to stands yesterday but I have to report our very own JA, has made it onto page 169 being quoted in the Kitchen professionals tips for a great kitchen.
I just wanted to say...
Congratulations Julie-Ann its a credit to you and your expertise.;)

How exciting! Massive congratulations, JA! I will be out to buy my copy this afternoon. :kiss:

[Julie-Ann]

Thank you all- you are very sweet:kiss:. I haven't got my copy yet but Elements read to me some of what they said - it is embarrassingly too much praise:o. But I did enjoy writing the article. The people from Home Beautiful are fun to work with.

That's awesome!!! :thumbs up: Congratulations Julie-Ann. I went to newsagent yesterday wanting to grab a copy of Home Beautiful (before knowing J-A is in there) but it hasn't arrived yet. Now, I want it even more!

My copy was in mail this afternoon.

The article "Essential Ingredients" says:

"20 of Australia's top kitchen designers, chefs and industry experts serve up the innovative ideas, materials and appliances they simply couldn't live without"

So our J-A is grouped in with Maggie Beer, Peter Gilmore, and Pete Evans...

Top 20 baby!!! Who hoo.....


oh and (Lanne will love this) Peter Russell the general manager of marketing director of Fisher and Paykel........is also in this group...Mr Russell we have had some problems with your washing machine/mould factory....
ROFL...

Wow how exciting I was just reading my copy I collected from the letterbox a short time ago (I was annoyed as it usually arrives the second Friday off the month and I can enjoy it on a day off).

Oh if only I could cook like them:D. I think Anna the journalist was very generous to group me with people of that calibre:o.
But I am happy to sign autographs Rosie. Maybe you could sell it for $1 on Ebay:D.

Thanks everyone for your kind words:kiss:

Well done, J-A, and very well deserved. :love it:

[homesweethome]

Congrats JA!!!!:thumbs up: Just remember the little people on your way up hehehehehehe:D Oh and yes, maybe I could have the bottom of my jute ball autographed lol :p;)

I have been so busy that I haven't been on the forum or read my HB which arrived yesterday (so late - usually out first week of the month!!). Can't wait to see what you have to say JA, especially as I am a bit kitchen focused at the moment,,
