If you are a fan of Fresh FACS on Facebook (If you aren’t a fan, I hope you’ll Like us today!), you probably saw my post about Julia Roberts yesterday. In that post I referenced an article where Ms. Roberts shared that if she wasn’t an actor she would like to be a Home Economics teacher. How cool is that??!! Okay, I know that she used the old name for our field, but I’m happy to forgive her in return for the status her remark gives us! Call me star struck if you want, but I think this is pretty cool! If you haven’t checked out the article, you will find the link when you go to our Facebook page to become a fan. http://www.facebook.com/FreshFACS

I’ve been thinking for some time that as FACS professionals we desperately need to shed the cloak of invisibility that surrounds us and show the world what we have to offer. I’d even given some thought to the value of having a celebrity spokesperson as the face of FACS. I must admit that I had never thought about Julia Roberts as that spokesperson, but wouldn’t that be great?!
Some of the celebrities that I’ve considered for the coveted title of The FACE of FACS are Ashley Judd, Eva Longoria and Jennifer Garner. They are all beautiful young women who have publically demonstrated their appreciation for the skills that we teach. (I’ve seen each of them on the Martha Stewart Show at least once!) An association with any one of them would definitely elevate the status of FACS to a whole new level, don’t you think?
Okay, so we have four great candidates to become The FACE of FACS! Which of these stars would you select for the title? Do you have other candidates to add to the list? I’d love to hear from you on this important topic! Let’s continue our FACS Makeover by selecting a celebrity spokesperson! Don’t miss out on the fun! Nominate your candidate today or show your support for one of the four current candidates! We’re waiting to hear from you!
Have a Fresh FACS day!
