Re: Labels

I am somewhere along here also, I need to get off my
assets and figure out how to make them before I take
any bags to shows/sales

I bought some labeled this way in Feb and it was a
vast improvement over magic markers, as was stated
some food/temp info is easier to print out also,

its a good thing to do and I need to go with it,
thanks for the prompting,
jake
