There’s truly no place like home…
After an incredible few days at Tastefully Simple’s National Conference, I’m back home with a heart that is overflowing…and unfortunately, a not-so-lovely summer sinus infection that decided to hitch a ride home with me. 🤧
While I’m taking it a little slower this week, I’m also bursting with excitement because I finally get to share some BIG news with you!
The brand-new Tastefully Simple Fall & Holiday Catalog has officially launched, and it’s filled with returning favorites, exciting new flavors, and so many delicious ways to make life in the kitchen a little easier.
So grab a cup of coffee (or maybe some hot tea if you’re feeling like I am!) and enjoy this week’s 3 Bites from Cathy’s Kitchen!

Whether you’re already dreaming about football parties, cozy soup nights, holiday baking, or Christmas gift giving, there’s something for everyone.
🍂 I’d love to help you find your new favorites! Send me a message if you’d like your own copy of the catalog or would like me to recommend products based on your family’s favorites.
💡 Kitchen Hack of the Week
When Life Gives You Zucchini…Bake Cake!
If your garden is producing more zucchini than you know what to do with, I have the perfect solution!

Instead of making traditional zucchini bread, try using Nana’s Apple Cake Mix as your shortcut.
It creates a wonderfully moist loaf with warm cinnamon flavor that tastes like you spent hours baking.
Even better…
🎉 This month, Nana’s Apple Cake Mix is just $6 with a qualifying $59 order!
It’s one of my favorite pantry staples because it isn’t just for apples—it transforms beautifully into zucchini bread, muffins, and so much more.
🥒 Want my Nana’s Zucchini Bread recipe? Send me a message, and I’ll happily share it with you!

Party Palooza…and a Heart Full of Gratitude
National Conference is always one of my favorite weeks of the year, and this one certainly didn’t disappoint.
It was a whirlwind of learning, celebrating, laughing, and reconnecting with friends from all across the country.


I was incredibly honored to be recognized as a Top Diamond Leader, celebrated for both personal sales and referral earnings, and inspired by everything Tastefully Simple has planned for the coming season.
But if I’m being honest…
The awards are wonderful.
The new products are exciting.
The training is invaluable.
Yet the best part is always the people.
Over the years, Tastefully Simple has introduced me to an amazing community of consultants from across the country who have become so much more than business friends. We encourage one another, celebrate together, learn from each other, and genuinely cheer each other on.
I came home inspired—not just because of the incredible new products, but because of the amazing people behind this company.
And now I can’t wait to share all of that excitement with all of you!
Thank you for being part of Cathy’s Kitchen.
Whether you’ve been cooking with me for years or you’re just discovering Tastefully Simple, I’m so grateful you’re here.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to pour another cup of tea, rest this stubborn sinus infection, and start planning all the fun recipes, experiences, and surprises I have in store this fall.
P.S. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing my favorite new products, recipes, and holiday entertaining ideas from the new catalog. You won’t want to miss what’s coming next!
