Have you tried the NEW Quaker Soft Baked Bars? I had the opportunity to try these and I have to admit that they are pretty darn good! But they aren’t just tasty, the thing that I liked even better is that they are great for you. They only have 140 calories but 5 grams of fiber! They also are a good source of protein and 5- B vitamins. They come in two flavors: Cinnamon Pecan Bread and Banana Nut Bread.wholesome food Quaker Soft Baked Bar

I tried the Cinnamon Pecan Bread and I know of a couple of my grandkids that are going to love these and I will feel good about giving them one! I warmed it up in the microwave for 10 seconds and it was soft and warm just like a real cinnamon roll coming out of the oven! QSBB 3D Carton Cinn Pecan.jpg (2 documents, 2 total pages)

Gardening Time!

I am really excited to try the new Miracle-Gro Expand ‘n Gro™ Concentrated Planting Mix. I recently went on a vacation and when I got home, much to my dismay, a couple of my potted plants had died. If I had had this mix,( that retains up to 50 % more moisture), my plants would have been just fine. If I use this soil, I won’t have to worry when I am gone for several days at a time. You also only have to fill your pots part way with this soil and then add water and it expands 3 times so it saves money on potting soil. I plant lots of pots of flowers outside in the summer, so it will be great to save on the potting soil and not have to water them quite so often!

Expand ‘n Gro™

I also want to try this mix in my garden because I have a little bit of clay in the soil and by adding this mix it will really help to add mulch and nutrients to the soil and the benefits can last for several years. Plus it will feed my plants for up to 6 months helping them to grow up to 3 times bigger, producing more fruits and veggies! It is an easy way to prep my garden for the spring and summer growing seasons.

So let’s all get out there and start growing!

Spring has Sprung!

I love spring and the fact that I can get outside in the sunshine and start digging around in my yard! One of the first things that I usually want to give attention to is my lawn, because I always want the ugly brown to start turning green. I am quite excited about the Scotts ® Snap® Spreader System because all the work is done for me! There is no mess, no measuring, no big heavy bags to cut and pour, no spilling and no waste! It also has a unique Edge Guard feature that keeps the product where I want it…on the lawn! It doesn’t get any better than that! And I love that I can do it all by my independent little self! It really is a fool proof way to feed your lawn and there is no hassle in doing it! It saves me time and money because it is so quick and efficient. I like that there is no waste, I can simply store any leftover for the next feeding!

Check out this great system and see how quick and easy it really is to use, I think that you will be surprised. Scotts® Snap® Spreader System Then “like” Snap Perks on Facebook and check out the great promotions and contests while you are there. Snap perks on Facebook

new Glade® Expressions™ fragrance mist new Glade® Expressions™ oil diffuser

Oh wow! Have any of you tried the new Glade® Expressions™ I decided to try the fragrant mist and I was very pleasantly surprised with it. I sprayed it in my kitchen which is a big open room along with the dining room and also in a small bathroom. I left the house for a couple of hours to go to lunch with a friend and I had forgotten all about the spray. When I returned home I was welcomed with the most pleasant fragrance! I was surprised by how much I could still smell the aroma. Even my husband made a comment about how he could smell something good, which is surprising because he is has lost a lot of his sense of smell! But what was even more pleasant was the next day when I woke up I could still smell the wonderful, fresh, pineapple and mangosteen smell! I was sold. It comes in some wonderful scents like: Cotton and Italian Mandarin, Fuji Apple and Cardamon, Spice Lavender and Juniper Berry but the one I liked the best was the Pineapple and Mangosteen. Walmart.com - Glade Expressions Air Fresheners It has the most refreshing clean, citrusy smell that really made me feel like it was spring inside when outside it was a cold wintery morning. I like the easy to squeeze trigger and that it is refillable. Glade® Expressions™ has a fragrance satisfaction guarantee or your money back at http://bit.ly/xMScbO and right now you can buy it at Walmart and they have a money saving coupon of $1.50 off, available at http://bit.ly/zus6F5)

Glade® Expressions™ also has an oil diffuser that last 30 days and does not require any electricity. It has a fun no-spill design and would fit in any décor and you can use the coupon for it also.
