Review: Christmas Gift Basket Classic from Gourmet Gift Baskets

Image
  I recently had the wonderful opportunity to once again work with Brian from Gourmet Gift Baskets. I was really excited to receive his e-mail and was asked to review the Christmas Gift Basket Classic. I couldn't wait to receive it because I know that I'm going to receive award winning gourmet snacks in a lovely basket!    Included in the Christmas Gift Basket Classic are: Almond Pecan-dy Crunch, Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies, Dipping Pretzels, Robert Rothschild Farm Raspberry Honey Mustard Pretzel Dip, Salted Peanuts in Box, Signature Dark Chocolate Bar, Buttered Peanut Crunch, Metropolitan Trail Mix, Parmesan Artichoke and Garlic Cheese Biscuits and Chocolate Covered Cherries. I have to say that I loved everything in this basket. I especially loved the Almond Pecan-dy Crunch and Chocolate Covered Cherries! Yummmm! :) The only thing with my basket is, is that the wood was broken on one side. Other than that, everything ...

Final Touch Fabric Softener Review & Giveaway!!

Image
This is the 3rd product that I've tried from Phoenix Brands and it's the Final Touch Liquid Fabric Softener . I received four huge, 120 oz bottles of these in the Spring Fresh scent. I've never heard of this fabric softener so it peaked my interest to see how this would work for me. I've always bought fabric softener sheets, never the liquid. For me, the sheets have been so much easier. Just toss it in the dryer and let it do it's thing. For this liquid softener, I liked the scent. Not strong at all unlike a lot of fabric sheet brands out there. This is a plus for me! The downside for me, is that I do have to go down several flights of steps to put this in the rinse cycle at the right time and that can be a hassle perhaps for anyone! :) I do like also that I haven't had to worry about sheet marks on clothing. This is another plus to using the Final Touch Fabric Softener ! Overall, it's a great product and I do recommend it for your laundry needs. Final Tou...

Niagara Non Aerosol Spray Starch Review & Giveaway!!

Image
I received 6 bottles of  Niagara Non-Aerosol Spray Starch and I can't remember the last time, that I used a spray starch on my clothes. I haven't ironed in years. I really haven't had the need to do so. I tried this product on some dress pants and it has a nice, natural, clean, fresh linen scent to it. I sprayed it on and it absorbed quickly into the material. This is nice to have should I ever need it. I'll be giving some away of my own to friends/family because I know I won't be using much of this personally. So, i f you have stiffness with your garments, you should try Niagara and steam or dry iron at the right fabric setting for your material. About Niagara liquid starch spray : Niagara liquid spray starch provides long lasting, crisp, sharp finish on every kind of fabric. A staple of the Phoenix Brands family, Niagara Non-Aerosol Spray Starch provides a crisp, lasting freshness with each use. Making fabrics feel as fresh and new each and every time, Niagara ...

One of which is the 'Ajax HE liquid laundry detergent' ! I received 6 of them and currently have used ALL but 2! We don't have a HE (high efficiency) laundry washing machine, however I was assured that there would be no issues when using the Ajax HE laundry detergent and to use it like I do with regular laundry detergent. You can get 32 loads out of each one of them. We do a lot of laundry here and have gone through over a bottle of the Ajax every month. The smell of it is pleasant and nobody had ...

Congrats Karin #8! You've been chosen by Random.org via Rafflecopter to have won the Fiber One prize pack! Thanks for entering and enjoy.  I have to say this....IF you're entering my giveaways, please following the directions. For the Cheerios giveaway, I had to remove quite a few entries because they weren't being completed as they should and I will check. I saw no links for blogging the giveaway, tweeting the giveaway and following via GFC was a mandatory entry--someone didn't say they did that. I can't chase all of you down and find the appropriate links for the giveaway and I shouldn't have to do that and I'm not going to. They should be in the box provided and I should be able to copy the link, paste and check it out. If BOTH of the mandatory entries in my giveaways aren't being done, I have no choice but to remove all of your entries. I don't want to do that, but I need to be fair and keep the rules that I stated when I posted the giveawa...
