Hi Everyone! Guess what arrived earlier today? A BEAUTIFUL Cookie Flower Pot filled with a WIDE variety of cookie specialties (you name it its in there:9 or should I say WAS in there:eek:). But here is the part that made my heart smile and eyes water..........the flower pot is hand painted with a very special and creative design of our logo saying CATHE FORUMS, along with floating displays of high steps, barbells and a cute black lab puppy on the back. Across the rim of the flower pot is a painted banner saying LOVE TO CATHE & CHRIS!!!!!!!!

Can I tell you how touched we are?????? This is such an incredibly precious and generous gift from all of you. Thank you for the beautiful note that went along with it too. You are wonderful and we are very touched by your kindhearted ways. While I am assuming that many of you were not able to see this beautiful arrangement before it was delivered, I have taken a picture of it and will attach it to this note hopefully by tomorrow. I have to run off to pick up the kids from the sitters right now.

THANK YOU AGAIN!
Love,
Cathe & Chris
 
Oh my!

We have been on pins & needles all day! SOOOOO glad you liked it and MOST have seen the pictures. We can't thank you enough for all you have done to make us HAPPY! HUGS to you ALL!

Oh Cathe I am so glad you love it. You and Chris deserve it. You both work so hard to keep us happy. Hug and kisses from here to you and Chris. Keep up the awsome job:)
 
RE: Oh my!

Pins and needles is right! Although the photo I saw didn't have the cookies, just to flower pot. I would love a photo of Cathe EATING A COOKIE:) Just to know I'm normal!;-)

No matter, happy you liked it!
 
Cathe and Chris,

You do so much for us. In the short time I've been doing your workouts, I've gotten in better shape, I feel stronger, and my endurance is better. You've made a difference in my life, by giving me tools and inspiration. This is the very least we could give back.

Thank YOU!
 
Just wanted you guys to know how much we appreciate all of your dedication to a high quality product and a big THANKS for putting up with all of us rabid fans!!! Enjoy!

When he heard about "the Plan", my DH said "you do see the irony here right? Giving cookies to a workout guru?" I told him "she can afford to eat as many cookies as she wants!"

Enjoy! You deserve it! Aren't we sneaky!?! }(

P.S. I HAVE to tattle--Kathy S., DebbieH., and Francine did all the hard work! Ya done good girls! :)

~~Happiness is an Attitude~~
 
I've been checking the site all day waiting for Cathe's reaction to the gift. I have seen the picture of the pot, but would like to see what it looks like with the cookies in it.
 
So glad you were surprised and are enjoying it! You all deserve a little (a whole lot!) of recognition. It's been difficult all day waiting to find out if you'd seen it or not! :7 :7 :7

Enjoy!
 
Just like the other girls, I've been checking in at different times today, to see if you got your present.
We all wanted to do something to cheer you up. We felt bad because of all the frustration concerning the videos not sounding right.
You were in a rat race trying to get them done for all the pre-orders.

You and Chris and all the SNM crew work hard to give us excellent workouts and the best in the production of them.
So enjoy the cookie flowers and you can think of us whenever you look at the flower pot.
We all LOVE you.
:) :) :) :)
 
A creative way to express heartfelt gratitude to an incredibly creative woman! Thank you Cathe and Chris and all for all that you do. It certainly doesn't go unnoticed.

Enjoy!
 
So glad you liked it! You guys really deserved it! Enjoy!

(kept checking the site all day, too! )

:D I must have wrote to Kathy S 100 times today asking her if she thought you were at the gym today, when I could not get a hold of Kathy, I started bugging Deb.H. The suspense was awful but you got to admit we can keep a secret! I am soo glad you like the gift. Very creative huh? I believe the creators of the cookie flower pot really got into your website. You and Chris do soo much for your fans it is hard to show just how much it is appreciated! They did an excellent job and I think it would be nice for all to see! You and Chri ENJOY from your dedicated fans!:*
 
YIPPEE!!!

Hi Cath!

YAY!!! http://users.pandora.be/eforum/emoticons4u/happy/1219.gif

I'm SO glad you two loved it and that it surprised you! This has been one tough secret to keep 'cause we're a very chatty crowd :) -- but it looks like we pulled it off without a hitch! A very large group came together quickly to do this and it wouldn't be right to single any of us out. (Nadine, honey, I'm gonna hafta kill ya. :)) We've been very distressed to see you and Chris working and worrying yourselves to the bone on those defective videos, so this seemed like a perfect moment to remind you two that you are really more dear and important to us than we know how to tell you. We wanted you to have a permanent keepsake that will make you and Chris feel appreciated every time you look at it! After the cookies vanish (hmmm, would that be now?) you should plant your favorite seasonal flowers -- The Educated Crowd will brighten up your office and Chris' office for you full-time!

By the way, I do want to tell you and Chris, and our Forum members, that Blooming Cookies, the company that created this little masterpiece for us, has an amazing staff. They had never heard of the Cathe Forums but in the past few days they've all become completely smitten with you, and I DO mean smitten! Cathe, once they saw what you do and witnessed what you mean to all of us, they got totally excited about this project and the art staff really worked hard on designing a customized "Bloomey's" pot for us. They've been as excited as we've been to see how you liked it, so I must go RIGHT away and e-mail them a link to your post.

And they asked if we would get them a picture of you holding the pot, to post on their web page in the section where they proudly brag about celebrities who've received or sent Blooming Cookies! :) That would put you -- appropriately, I think! -- right up there in the company of Oprah, Katie Couric, Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Candace Bergen, the list goes on! Here's a link to that page, and y'all should look around -- they do AMAZING stuff! http://www.bloomingcookies.com/Celebs.aspx

Enjoy every yummy crumb, you two!!!
