A Note on Events

Hey gang. As some of you know, I've recently made a life change and I'm going back to school full-time. Yikes, scary I know. I am trying to stay as active as I can with the Lady Rogue Business Network, rogueApron, and volunteering - you guys know how hard the juggling act is, especially when you're losing your steady income in favor of student loans!

With that in mind, and having had conversations with a few members, I've decided to start asking for a donation/cover for LRBN meetups.… Continue

Vegetable Husband needs a barter driver for local organic veggies...

Hey there,

I know some of you expressed an interest in bartering for weekly local organic veggies. I have an area I am trying to add but I don't have anyone to drive the community. It is a challenging area of town at rush hour and unfortunately, that is when we get the food out. If anyone lives near N Druid Hills and Roxboro or around there, it might be more convenient. The territory is from Phipps Plaza to Dresden / Oglethorpe Brookhaven area. Let me know if you have any interest or… Continue

Does anyone know a dinner club or business networking in NYC

Hey everyone! I have recently moved up to New York for work and I miss Lady Rogue!!! and the friendships that were so naturally created, the invaluable advice & business guidance, and most of all the eating, laughing & the enjoyment of getting to know new people in a welcoming environment! Does anyone know of a something similar in NYC that I could join, it clearly will never match that of Lady Rogue but it will suffice until I return to Atlanta next summer.

Thank all you and… Continue

Looking for some brilliant advice

Hi!

For the last year I've been working on recipes for my gluten free cookbook. It's made up of mostly baked goodies and I've gotten some good feedback from those who have Celiac's like me and those who just like sweets. But I'd like to try the recipes out on people who don't have to be nice to me to keep getting more free cupcakes.

I'm planning a cupcake tasting but also would like to try selling some at farmer's markets or other similar venues.

Does anyone have any… Continue
