Super Bowl Party - Tasty and Easy Stuffed Rolls

It's HERE!


SUPERBOWL SUNDAY IS 
FEBRUARY 2nd!



Let's start out with a little trivia.

The First Super Bowl was played in which year?

A. 1957
B. 1967
C. 1977

If you said B you are CORRECT!  It was on Jan. 15, 1967,
and played in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles, CA.
The two teams vying for the win were the Green Bay Packers (NFL) and the (AFL's) Kansas City Chiefs. The Packers smashed the Chiefs, 35-10.
Back then is was called AFL-NFL World Championship Game the name evolved to the Super Bowl in 1970.


Here's a few tips I've used in the past to make our get 
together's a memorable championship fun time 
whichever team you're rooting for.

Set the mood.
Create a great game day atmosphere with football themed party supplies such as football field table covers, banners, streamers, paper plates and cups. If you’ve got the opposing team’s jerseys, t-shirts or hats, hang them on the walls. Keep a soft football or two around the house to toss around between plays. If you really want to go over the top, you can offer to paint your guests’ faces in their team’s colors. Too fun!


Be sure you have plenty of refreshments.
All that hooting and hollering makes a mouth dry :)
A variety to please everyone is nice and
they look so festive in these football mason jars.

Stuffed Rolls
My Mom used to make these every Christmas Eve.
They were inexpensive, easy and you could make them ahead of time.
When I was younger my Aunts, Uncles and cousins would all come over to celebrate Christmas Eve. We would make tons of these for that night.
Sitting around eating them waiting for Santa to ring the back door bell....
ok  ok enough of that, that's for another post! 

(recipe circa '70's,
 typewritten recipe card)


Gather all your ingredients.
I substituted ground turkey for the hamburger
because that's what I had on hand.


Follow directions and mix well.


Add to bun


Place onto wax paper


Roll up and twist ends


Just warm in the microwave.
They fit right back into the bun bag.
You can freeze if necessary.


Anytime you want one, pop it into the microwave 
and heat a couple minutes.
Handy snack for the older kids to grab.
When my oldest Son owned his Computer Shop,
he would take these for lunch in the winter,
fast and easy to heat and eat.
Warm and hearty.

Finger Foods are a must. 
The norm like chips, pretzels, nuts and the like -
but how about adding some new quick and easy
crowd pleasers?
Even something a little sweet to go along with the salty snacks?


Don’t forget the bathroom.
It’s a long day and the bathroom will be busy, so make sure it’s clean and well stocked with plenty of hand soap, clean towels, room deodorizer and toilet paper. After all, you don’t want your loo to look like a locker room.




SO
YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!??


GO NINERS!

Purex plus Clorox2 Detergent Review and Giveaway! #PurexPlusClorox2

Purex plus Clorox2 couldn't have shown up at a better time!


Sure I was preparing for Easter,
had a ton of other things on my mind ~
laundry wasn't one of them.


I put it aside for time being,
and went on with the preparation and celebration.


Then came the after Easter clean up....uggh
That's when I remembered Purex plus Clorox2!


I had tons of laundry - tablecloths, napkins,
and other linens,


not to mention all our clothes!
Especially mine....
I think more food went on my
blouse than in my mouth!

Saved the Bean Salad as a little one ran by - that's on the left,
the ham slipped as I was carving it and sloshed up on me - that's on the right. OY!


New Purex® plus Clorox2 detergent is specially formulated with Clorox 2® stain-fighting enzymes to remove the toughest stains.
Believe me there's a lot of tough stains in that mountain of laundry.

My Sunshine was sitting among the Oxalis
and decided she wanted me to sit with her

There went my pants!
Flower stains! LOL


New Purex® plus Clorox2 detergent works on 100 different stains
Contains a powerful boost of Clorox 2® stain fighters
Safe for colors (contains no chlorine bleach)


It will get a real test this time around!

For Tough Stains
Pretreat by applying some detergent directly to stains and rub into fabric. Allow formula to sit on stains for 5 minutes. For added power, use 3/4 cap of detergent in wash.

Well, looky looky!!
New Purex® plus Clorox2 detergent saved my butt literally!


It removed not only the flower stains
but the leafy green stains too!!

And look at my blouse!
My whole outfit was saved from all the
assortment of stains from Easter!
The olive oil from the Bean Salad and
the Ham drippings are GONE!


I'm really relieved, I don't have that many nice outfits
and really thought this one was a goner for sure.
 Can't give you anymore proof than that.
All I did was pour a little on the stains,
rub it in good, let it sit for about 5 minutes then
toss it along with the rest of the clothes
and detergent into the machine.

Renuzit Sensitive Scents Review and Giveaway ~ #SensitiveScents


Renuzit has come out with a new line of Sensitive Scents
with soft delicate aromas to freshen your home without overpowering those with sensitive noses.
This is especially interesting to me because I have
2 children who have Vasomotor Rhinitis.
They are sensitive to strong/certain scents,
one more so than the other.
Headaches are almost immediate
then sinuses start to ache.
So I need to be careful with any fragrant products I use.
And wouldn't you know I LOVE fragrance!


I very anxious to try out each form:

Adjustable Scent Cone
Universal Scented Oil
Deodorizing Trigger Spray


A variety of fragrances are available:

Pure Water Blossom and Cucumber
Pure Ocean Breeze
Pure White Pear and Lavender


I received the Pure Water Blossom and Cucumber
Adjustable Scent Cone and placed it in the bathroom.
It has a fresh clean Summery floral scent and
will last for up to 4 weeks. 


Next I opened and put together the Universal Scented Oil.
I placed in in the outlet in our entryway, so as someone enters our home they get a whiff of the delightful Pure Ocean Breeze scent.
I think this scent is my favorite.
A fresh clean breezy scent.
A side note:
Renuzit's Plug-in Refills universally fit any
Glade or Air Wick oil warming unit.


The Deodorizing Trigger Spray I used in the kitchen after cooking to remove any lingering odors. It came in the Pure White Pear and Lavender scent and was amazing. Neutralized the food smells and left it smelling wonderful. I do need to remember this is a trigger spray and not an aerosol, a little goes a long way, which I love!
I also used the Trigger Spray in the living room, with 3 dogs it can always use a bit of freshening up.

I have to say my home smells really good right now!
There's a different scent in several areas and as you walk through they are not only delicate enough to blend and enhance each other they knocked out any unpleasant smells that were lingering.

The main thing is my children were NOT bothered by the scents! They liked the scents because they were not only light but they smelled good.

Have you tried any of these yet?
Would you like to?

No More Tear - Stains and a Giveaway! #freshpaws

I love my little Chi dearly.
She is a buff color and her tear stains drive me nuts,
they detract from her sweet face.
Our marvelous groomer went out of business.
Although I wasn't able to take her there on a regular basis,
Katie always came home with those stains gone and I loved it.

I've tried pet tear stain products from pet stores
but they just don't seem to help.
 I was leery of the ingredients in them
because it seemed to make her eyes water afterwards.
I had basically given up until I was sent

I love that it is all natural,
 made only with the best plant based ingredients
and contains no chemicals.



It's gentle formula will not burn or sting your pets eyes.
It's even safe for cats.
  

Fresh Paws Tear Stain Remover
promises to:
- Eliminate ugly tear stains
 - Prevents eye discharge and infections
- Lighten existing stains that shampoo didn't help
- Let your pets beautiful eyes shine again
- You and your pets will be happy or
 get your money back guaranteed!

Katie has seasonal allergies and this has been the worst year to date. Her eyes have been watering so badly, not to mention she has become an itch ball, but that's a whole other story! 
Her watering eyes leave those pesky stains.
Katie's Results


I applied some of the liquid onto a
cotton ball and wipe the stains on each eye.


I was careful not to get it into her eyes.
She wasn't sure what was going on but was a good girl
 and sat for it anyway.

 
Such an improvement in one application!



Amazing!


Now for the giveaway!

a Rafflecopter giveaway


WINNER has 24 hrs. to confirm with me.
