$25 Walmart giftcard giveaway compliments of Cascade Complete All-in-one Actions Packs -

Contest is closed ---------

Thank you all for entering and leaving comments.
The winner is Lyn!



MyBlogSpark offered me this challenge and giveaway to post on my blog.
They sent me a very nice baking dish and a package of Cascade Complete All-in-1 ActionPacs for the dishwasher.


This is the challenge I got from Cascade - We dare you to take the 24 Hour Challenge.

Instructions:

Bake a Cherry Cobbler.* Enjoy!

Set the empty baking dish out for 24 hours

Without rinsing, put it in the dishwasher with Cascade Complete


Now I normally rinse all the dishes pretty well before I load them in the dishwasher, don't you?

and then, they wanted me to post a picture of the dried-on, unrinsed, unscrubbed dish when it came out the dishwasher. I thought this was very bold of them and did not think there would be a clean dish at the end of the cycle,
but see for yourself! It really did come clean. I think I've finally found a dishwasher detergent I really like.


They provided me with a $25 Walmart giftcard to award to one of the commenter's.
To enter, just tell me what meal leaves the most mess on your cookware


Legal Disclosure
Cascade Complete All-in-1 ActionPacs kit and the $25 Walmart gift card were provided by P&G through MyBlogSpark.

May 1st Yard Sales

Two neighborhoods in my town had yard sales as well as a few single family sales - we went to as quite a few of them starting at 7am. By 9, we were tired and had a full vehicle so we headed back home.
Here's what we bought--

Mary Englebriet cherry crock - 25 cents!

I think these Melamine baby dishes are so cute, they were just $1 for the whole lot

not pretty pink Pyrex like last week, but these clear Pyrex bowls will be very useful $1
2 sippy cups 25 cents each

4 like new bathtowels - 25 cents each - perfect for dog washing

Stacking cup toy 50 cents
assorted books, 25 cents each
salt and pepper shakers - maybe $2?

Little Tykes Slide and rocking horse, also a swing for Gavin.
Outdoor toys were on my list of things I hoped to find and these were all in great condition and very cheap, I think each one was $2,

Theo with the Little Tykes turtle sand box - $5.
Jeff saw the new ones at Walmart for $37.99

Jeff and Bobby hung the swing up from the pergola - and you can see my garden in the background - everything is in pots - more on that later.

I hope you all got out and found some great things at yard sales too!
