March Newsletter
Welcome to My March Newsletter!
Hello March! We have just about made it! Only a few more weeks left to winter.
We have so much to look forward to in March: St Patrick’s Day, Easter, for the sports minded, Spring Training Baseball Games, March Madness… the list goes on.
With all the activity, our lives will get more busy. Whether you have an event to attend or are hosting, or just getting dinner on the table, we have solutions!
I hope you love the new format for this Newsletter. Instead of individual pages, I have put most of the content right here. I would love to hear if you like it this way or prefer the previous format.
Other news: Tastefully Simple will be outsourcing their shipping on March 19th. In preparation, look forward to Spring into Savings (see below).
Website Visit Winners
We had a little over 100 visits to my website (tsbygailj.com) in February.
I draw one free sample for every 20 visits to my website during the month.
Although we had over 100 visits, I only know of 18 people who visited. Since the purpose of this is to draw folks to my website, I drew 5 winners from those I know visited.
The winners are:
- Debbie Erhardt
- Debbie Foster
- Docia McCool
- Diane Prost
- Michele Dennis
I know you visited 2 ways: If you click on the emails I send via Constant contact or complete a form from the website.
My website host tells me how many folks visited.
So, if you are checking out my website from a text message or just coming back to see what may be new, fill out the form so I know you were here!

Host a Party and Get Rewarded (Fill Out Contact Form Below to Book a Party)
Rewards for Hosting a Party
Regardless of the Host Special, you will get these rewards when you host a party.
Any party type qualifies except for fundraisers. In that case, I will give you the cash equivalent to the rewards.
Notice at $500, you get FREE shipping on your host rewards, host special AND half priced items.
You earn half price items (any item counts, even collections) when someone books a party from your party.
March Host Special
Host a party in the month of March and earn these items in addition to the Host Rewards.
The top level is a full set of our One Pan Wonders.
Remember, your guests will earn VIP Rewards when they order online using their account
April Host Special
April flowers bring May flowers. It also brings the start of salad season.
What better way to kick it off than hosting a party and earning the Salad Shakeup 5 Meal Kit valued at $49.99.
This kit includes the TS Shake & Pour so you can make your own salad dressing.
March Client Special
There is much to be happy about this March. Savings on Fall Winter Products, Special Discounts on Standard Products with the previous label AND getting a brand new Lemon Lemon Pepper Seasoning for just $6 when you place a $60 order.
Remember, when you place your order online with your account, you will also earn VIP Reward Points!
Lemon Lemon Pepper Seasoning Recipes
Lemon Chicken & Veggie Kabobs
A recipe that is as simple as brushing on some olive oil and seasoning with our new Lemon Lemon Pepper.
That is all it takes. That and some kabob skewers.
Lemon Pepper Tilapia & Veggies
What’s not to like about this recipe? You can make in the oven OR on the grill. Either way, all the mess is contained in the foil packet and all you need from TS is our Lemon Lemon Pepper Seasoning.
Lemon Lemon Pepper Broccoli
Another simple Lemon Lemon Pepper recipe. The common denominator is you spray with Olive Oil and sprinkle with Lemon Lemon Pepper Seasoning.
Want to know a secret? You can do this with other veggies too! Try asparagus!
Have You Earned VIP Rewards Yet?
If you did not catch my announcement in February, Tastefully Simple has launched a new VIP Rewards Program.

Easter Recipes
On the Cover Pasta Salad
If your family is like mine, everyone brings something when we get together.
This fresh Greek-inspired pasta salad is sure to be a crowd pleaser.
You will need Dried Tomato and Garlic Pesto to make this creation happen.
Bacon & Spinach Quiche
This quiche is perfect to make ahead of your Easter gathering!
You will need Onion Onion and Seasoned Salt.
Robin's Nest Cake
One of my favorite Easter desserts, and really any Spring occasion dessert is the Robin’s Egg Cake.
This dessert features Absolutely Almond Pound Cake and Rhubarb Strawberry Fruit Spread.
My biggest suggestion is to ice the cake with the frosting first, they do the drizzle. It is easier to cover the cake that way.
