Dry Idea Contest and Sweepstakes...best way to stay fresh and dry in the summer heat!

I recently re-discovered Dry Idea as a great way to stay fresh and dry every day.  It is a super combination of  effective antiperspirant and deodorant.  The days have really started getting warm and sticky in the mid-Atlantic area and I need something that is going to keep me dry all day long. Dry Idea has really been working for me.  I have to dress formally for work but I am in and out of offices all day long.  I always worry about making sure I am fresh throughout the day.  I have tried so many products that claim they are super antiperspirants and deodorants and I have have that nagging feeling...with Dry Idea I don't seem to have to worry at all. It has been working throughout the day.....and even the evening. One evening I had a client dinner right after work and didn't get home until 10:30pm.  I was fresh and lovely the whole time!!  


You can get more information on all the varieties and formulations at Dry Idea.  They have a formulation that is right for everyone from Clear Gel to Invisible Solid to Roll On.  The Invisible Solid protects for 48 hours too!  Sign up to be a big Dry Idea Sweepstakes winner by clicking here.  You can also sign up to win in my Rafflecopter contest on my blog below for an additional chance to win a free coupon for a Dry Idea AdvancedDry.  a Rafflecopter giveaway



Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry Roll-On so I could review it.  However, all of the opinions expressed here are my own.

My McCormick Grill Mates Grill Ambassadors Party

I was really excited to be chosen to host a McCormick Grill Mates party as a member of Crowdtap.  Here is the Crowdtap link if you would like to join and get in on some of these great opportunities to connect with brands you love and possibly get some products to try and share with others!  It was a great opportunity to get together with friends Memorial Day weekend.  We had a ton of fun down at the beach house.  We got the grill going with some help from McCormick Grill Mates.  They sent us a bunch of great items in our party kit:



  • Party Booklet
  • Grill Mates® Spiced Brandy & Herb Marinade
  • Grill Mates® Slow and Low Memphis Pit BBQ Rub
  • Grill Mates® Montreal Steak Seasoning Blend
  • Grill Mates® Molasses Bacon Seasoning Blend
  • Grill Mates® Brown Sugar Bourbon BBQ Sauce

  • We grilled up a ton of yummy Spiced Brandy & Herb Marinade chicken wings and the Grill Mates Molasses Bacon Seasoning made the burgers taste out of this world.  I made up a big batch of yummy pasta salad with fresh orange peppers, scallions, zucchini and green squash.  I tossed it with a quick sauce made with dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, pepper and a few other secret additions.  Of course I made a giant salad with lots of fresh arugula and summer baby tomatoes. We baked some fresh brownies for dessert with ice cream.   It was a beautiful day and the weather held up all afternoon.  

    Hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day.
