Marcela Alban - Homeware Specialist
What makes a Hot Mamma? Positive energy, inner beauty (and let’s face it- when someone has inner beauty, they also have outer beauty), someone who balances life well, and no matter what life throws at them- they see the glass half full. Our Hot Mamma’s are working moms who “have it all”- family, career and happiness. And in true OCMAMMA style- our Hot Mamma’s are also…HOT.
Our hope is that you pat our Hot Mamma’s on the back for being able to juggle it all (with a smile on their face), and when possible- support their businesses. In every HM Spotlight you will be introduced to our HM of the Month, their kiddo and their business. If you choose to contact the HM (and we hope you do), please don’t forget to tell ‘em where you heard about their hot-ness.
HOT MAMMA QUESTIONNAIRE
Name: Marcela Alban
Children's Names and Ages: Noah [6}
Job Title: Seller extrordinnaire of fine wares
Company Name and address: Demarle at Home
Company Website, if applicable: http://www.demarleathome.com
Description of company you own or work for: Demarle makes the best non-stick bakeware. The stuff is durable and made of silicone. A friend of mine has owned hers for 10 years, and it is still a staple in her kitchen. I just discovered it a month ago, and I'm now a registered sales rep. I do a dinner party at someone's home - the guests enjoy the cooking show and the scrumptous food while they peruse my catalog. If they like the Demarle products, great. If not, it's always a great party anyway.
How does your business help other moms and/or kids? You like cupcakes - done! You like making appetizers - done! You bake cookies, pizza, fish, chicken, brow nies - done and done! You don't like a mess - seriously this non-stick means non-stick - just rinse in the sink - no dishwasher or scrubbing required. Goodies for you, kids, and hubby -and more time with them - and less time in the kitchen.
How do you balance work and kids? I work as a hobby so I have plenty of time to still be the cool mom who plays with Noah and his friends after school.
What is your favorite activity with your kiddo? Bedtime - stories in bed. I used to read to him. Now he reads to me. It is so cute.
What is one piece of advice that you could share with other moms? Family first - everything else will adjust.
What is your favorite online site for kids or moms? OCMAMMA- seriously I just discovered it and think it is great!
What is one of your favorite books about parenting? Babyhood by Paul Reiser - classic comedy. Also, Chicken Soup for the Parent's Soul.
What is your biggest guilty pleasure? ARE WE ALLOWED TO DISCUSS THIS ON YOUR WEB-SITE?!?! Kids might read this!?!
If you won the lotto today, what would be the first thing you would spend money on? (assuming you have to buy yourself something.. I know, it is a stretch): A new refrigerator, stove, range, sink, washing machine, dishwasher, iron, and vacuum cleaner. Or how about a maid, a butler, and a chauffeur - yeah, that's better
