Goodie Cookie
Shopping for a hostess gift or a thank you for a
friend? Nancy Goodspeed hopes you'll think of
Goodie Cookie.
Goodspeed recently started the business selling
baking gift kits, with themes to celebrate the seasons, holidays and lifestyles. She began by selling her giant
pizza-size cookie kits on eBay and expanded her
success with a virtual store on the Web. By the
first of the year she hopes to sell the kits through
direct sales representatives at home parties.
In addition to the pizza cookie kits, Goodspeed
is also selling a "toys and treats" kit for the pup (or
dog lover) in your life. It includes recipes and
instructions for healthy treats to bake for your dog,
along with a flying disc and aqua toy. There are also
holiday-themed kits that include a baking sheet,
cookie cutter, towel and instructions and recipes.
Goodspeed was Spokane's first news anchorwoman at KHQ-TV from 1975 through 1984. She also worked
in public relations in Spokane for many years as a spokeswoman for businesses including Avista Corp., Packet Engines and River Park Square. She now
lives in Helena.
Goodspeed says it's exciting to be promoting a
business of her own. The kits are $13.95 plus
shipping and make it to most homes in 2 days. "Everybody is busy
and we're always looking for something different to give as a gift.
This is easy enough kids can make it or Dads can make it with
their kids," Goodspeed said.
