Contest!

Ok people.  Here's the deal.

As you can see, I've been doing some major housecleaning around here.

It's time to get down to business. (to deafeat *crash crash* THE HUNS)

But seriously though.  I am almost at 100% readiness to start my business up for real.  The problem is...I CAN'T FOR THE LIFE OF ME COME UP WITH A FITTING NAME.

The one I have as the title of the blog now is probably the most legit I've come up with so far.  I am a Natural Chef, so I cook for health, and the main goal of MY business is to pass on my knowledge to others - thus the "maven" part.

But I'm still just not sure if it's quite perfect yet....

This is where you, dear readers, come in.

I am holding a contest.  I am asking for your best ideas for a business name and/or slogan for me.  Any input and ideas you have at all will be greatly appreciated! 

As a thank-you to the person with the best idea, I will come up with a whole-foods version recipe for the food of their choice.  I will test it, tweak it, and send it to you!  Just a little help along your path to a healthier life :-)

Here are the helping guidelines/things to keep in mind when coming up with ideas:
  • I'm a Natural Chef (also a Therapeutic Chef)
  • I will be traveling to client's homes to consult with them, do Pantry Revitalizations (where I throw away all their crap food), bring them to the store to show them what GOOD food to buy, and teach them to cook it.
  • I will also be doing menu plans, ideas for feeding picky children, food demos and cooking parties - you name it!
  • What I want to do most is TEACH people the skills they need to live a healthier life, for the REST of their lives - not just cook them healthy meals for a week and then leave them with lifestyles that are just as unhealthy as when I got there.
Let me know if you have any questions when you are coming up with ideas!  Tell me what you think of the name/slogan I have posted right now!

Please simply post your suggestions in the comments section below, along with your email so I can let you know if you win!  Please have all entries in by next Friday, February 11th at 11:57 p.m.  Yes, that's right, 11:57.
