The Pampered Chef: The Story of One of America's Most Beloved Companies
The Pampered Chef is Doris Christopher’s extraordinary account of how she turned an innovative concept and $3,000 investment into a business with annual sales approaching the billion-dollar mark. It is packed with real-life lessons and inspiring insights for small-business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs. In 1980 Doris Christopher, a former home economist and teacher, was itching to get back into the workforce after an eight-year hiatus as a stay-at-home mom. Drawing on her personal and professional expertise, and determined to make cooking easier and more convenient for families, she started selling high-quality kitchen tools through cooking demonstrations to groups of women in their homes. Today, the company she started in her basement, The Pampered Chef, is celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary and has grown into a corporation (now owned by Berkshire Hathaway) with tens of thousands of independent Kitchen Consultants who present more than a million Kitchen Shows a year, attended by more than 12 million people. The Pampered Chef is the story of the vision, energy, hard work, and chutzpah that drove Christopher and her company to the height of success. She describes her early days as a “one-woman show,” chronicles the company’s gradual expansion, its challenges and growing popularity, and the process, offers invaluable advice and sound strategies on how to found and grow a business, including: • Hard learned lessons for start-up entrepreneurs • How to create a business concept and set your priorities • Knowing when to expand and when to slow growth so that demand doesn’t overwhelm your operations or supplies • How to counter the naysayers and deal with adversity Today, as at the company’s founding, achieving a better balance between work and family remains central to The Pampered Chef’s mission. The Pampered Chef brings Christopher’s recipe for success to women, and men, everywhere..

The Pampered Black Queen
Right or wrong, good or bad, the twenty first century has become much more tolerant of many of the alternative life styles that have previously lain just below the mainstream of American society. Female domination is one of those life styles that has risen to become more visible in our collective awareness through our comedy, movies, and television documentaries. The Pampered Black Queen is a story of one such relationship between a beautiful young black woman and her white, husband/sex slave. The story follows the evolution of their role playing from the early beginnings of their marriage to the assumption of undisputable domination by the beautiful, black queen. She avidly learns to use many of the toys and devices associated with S&M sex including whips, handcuffs, blindfolds, and body clamps. The story contains explicit, detailed sexual activities in which pleasure and pain are commingled to produce the ultimate in sexual release and gratification for the insatiable mistress of the house. Our tale follows the couple as they delve deeper and deeper into the sadistic world of female domination over a willing, well trained, submissive sex slave. Eventually, their activities include other young women with similar tastes and desires which are only realized after exposure to the black queen and her white slave but, when awakened, are even more intense than those of the mistress herself. The story admittedly concentrates primarily on the daily spoiling and pampering of the black queen and her constant efforts to come up with more and more entertaining ways to torment her helpless slave and consequently satisfy her endless lust for power, control, and sexual satisfaction. But it also deals with the deep underlying love and trust necessary to make such an arrangement function. In the end, the mistress makes some life decisions that have devastating consequences for both herself and her love slave. The book is intended for the open minded reader who accepts that these types of pain and pleasure, control and submission, love and lust relationships exist in every city and state in the country under the auspices of the concept of consenting adults..
