This post brought to you by Arby’s. All opinions are 100% mine.

I was given a gift card from Arby’s to try their new Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich, so I decided that I would make a lunch date with one of my son’s and we could try out this new sandwich!  We went to an Arby’s that was close to his work and we enjoyed a fun time together, laughing and just spending time together!  It was so great!  Sometimes as an empty nester mom, I don’t get a lot of one on one time with my own children, so this was a treat!  Thanks Arby’s.  Do any of you have someone you need to connect with?  Try out this new Smokehouse sandwich with someone you love!

Summer is going by quickly and I still have a lot of activities that I want to do with the grandkids!  We love to be outside on the back patio where we are in the shade and can enjoy the beautiful summer days and evenings, so I like to have meals that are quick and easy…but that the kids will like.  One of my go to meals is tacos! I just cook the meat and then season with Pace® Picante Sauce.  Top with lettuce, cheese and a little sour cream and you have a great meal that all ages will enjoy!

Now is a great time to stock up on these supplies for all your BBQ’s, picnics,and general kid’s clean-ups!  The paper towels are great for cleaning up the kitchen, patio and BBQ grills, they are strong and last long.  I have always love the quality of Scott® products, you get more for your money with their products and now you can get that great quality for a great price. I like to keep a roll of paper towels on hand when we go in the car because they are great to wipe up dirty hands and faces, soda or juice spills or any little cleanups that I might have.   I always have a bottle of water in the car, so I can just moisten the paper towel a bit and I have a nice big “wash cloth”.  I can clean up the mess and simply toss the paper towel into the garbage!  So easy!

When you reach for a tissue box, you probably don’t stop to think about the story behind it: how it was designed, how it was made, or who designed it and who made it.

New White Cloud® Facial Tissue boxes might make you stop and think. Adorned with bright colors, polka dots, sunshine and lions, the new designs weren’t created by just any old artists. They were imagined and illustrated by three talented kids at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®

Air Wick Scented Oils at Sam’s Club

Reviews, Sponsored Post, , ,

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Air Wick for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I am kind of a smell freak and so I am a big fan of scented Airwick products.  I love how they make my whole house smell good.  There is nothing better than walking into my house after being gone for ahwile and the smell of citrus or flowers infusing my senses!

I love how easy and convenient this product is.  I simply snap in the bottle and plug it into an outlet!   I do not have to worry about it and I love how long it lasts before I have to put in a new refill.

I’ve sampled most all their scents including Hawaii, Ocean Spray & Sparkling Sea Minerals, Island Paradise, Grand Canyon, American Samoa, and my personal favorite, Bright Citrus Splash!

New “Bright Citrus Splash” and “Ocean Spray with Sparkling Sea Minerals” can ONLY be found at Sam’s Club. They also have national parks scents that are exclusive to Airwick, but for a limited time only.

It’s a TREMENDOUS VALUE – It’s a 38% value vs. Walmarts EDLP on their 3 pack. Sam’s club members can either have BONUS OIL or BONUS WARMER, your choice.  When you buy Sam’s Club exclusive pack, you don’t need to purchase refills as often because it comes with TONS in each pack :)

Here is my all time favorite scent, Bright Citrus Splash:

DSC_0088

I LOVE this fresh Citrus smell, it is just so refreshing to me!

Here are a few of my other favorites:

DSC_0204

American Samoa with Sweet Coconut & Island Palms, Island Paradise, and I love that they have some of the National Parks, so I chose  the Grand Canyon scent to try out!

You can see how many you get in each set, so they will last you for a long while! :)

Here’s a video to give you more info on scented Airwick products.

 Do you want the sweet smell of the islands or the fragrant smell of the catus flower to envelope your home?    Give scented Airwick products a try, I don’t think that you will be disappointed!

I have a great little project for all of you out there that would like to try your hand at gardening but are not quite sure where to start.  An herb container garden is a great place to start!  It is small in size, but yet it can yield a large amount of herbs. It is also very pretty to look at and can be part of your yard decor.
