Small & Mighty

This giveaway is now closed. Winners (comments #15 & 20) have been contacted.

Charlotte has a new word - heavy. She uses it when she tries to pick something up that is hard for her to lift. It is so cute to hear her little voice and see her strain to lift something that is as big as she is!

When I got this bottle of the new all Small & Mighty 96 loads she decided to pick it up for some reason. Maybe she wanted to help me carry it up the stairs? She is getting independent like that.

Well, once we got it upstairs, I put it to good use cleaning all of our vacation laundry. I wasn't surprised that it got my clothes clean, but I was impressed that it took so little to do so! It only takes 1 ounce to do an entire load of laundry. While I tried out Stainlifter (and it did get my chocolate ice cream and dirt stains out), it also comes in the following variants - Wild and Fresh®, Fresh Rain HE®, Relax®, and Free Clear. Something for everyone.

So, if you have some summer vacation laundry piling up, leave a comment because I have 2 coupons to give away to 2 lucky winners so they can have their own bottle of all Small & Mighty!

    My biggest laundry struggle is my husband's work shirts. With his own business, he has purchased several "Columbia" shirts, and paid to have his logo sewn on. He works out in the field and gets so many different kinds of stains on them, I don't even what most of them are, or how to treat them effectively. Yet it is so important to keep them clean, usable, and professional looking. I often have to treat and wash them several times for some stains to come out. I have a front loading washer and have to use the low suds type detergent.

    My biggest laundry struggle is stains. I feel like I weekly deal with all manner of stains from ink to ketchup and more. My husband typically wears very nice clothes so it is important to make sure they aren't rendered useless by a stain.

    I don't mind doing laundry and folding. It's the taking it to eveyone's rooms and putting it away that I dread.

    Vacation laundry??? Don't know what that is-LOL...maybe one day. What I deal with is EVERYDAY laundry, I have a husband who works two different law enforcement jobs with two different uniforms to wash, a four year old who thinks she can change her clothes three times a day and a soon to be two year old who leaves remnants of her day on her clothes (hehe)...so I could definitely put some free detergent to good use.

    My biggest laundry struggle is the messiest 5 year old on the face of the earth I am pretty sure. No matter what we do she ends up with it on her clothes. I finally went and bought her some t-shirts at Michaels on sale for $2.50 and some shorts on sale at Target for $3 so I don't care quite as much if they get ruined. As for vacation laundry - on our last vacation (almost 2 years ago boo hoo) same child then only 3 got chocolate on every single item of clothing she wore the whole trip I think. Chocolate is not the eaisest thing to get out and many of her shirts never came clean.

    My biggest laundry struggle is folding and putting stuff away before it starts to pile up. My husband asks if the "laundry fairies" are coming by for a visit if it has been a few days and the laundry is still sitting there. ; )

    Washing, drying, folding and putting laundry on hangers isn't that bad. I absolutely hate putting everything up. So I get my daughter and husband to do that for me!

    My biggest struggle is markers--my daughter somehow gets them all over her shirts when she's taking the lids off. I try to only buy washable markers, but somehow a dry erase or regular marker always finds its way onto her craft table and she uses it!

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces...

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t...

Note to Self

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti...
