The Original Dish Drying Mat



 
Who likes to be stuck drying dishes?  Not me!  I used to get so annoyed by the dishtowel that lasted about 30 seconds before becoming sopping wet.  The Original Dish Drying Mat is a better way than placing those dish towels on the counter when drying pots, pans, and dishes. It has a laminated design that provides incredible absorbancy and cushions your delicate dishware as it dries.
  • Holds 4 times its weight in water
  • Cushions delicate dishes and stemware
  • Machine washable and highly durable
  • Folds and stores easily
It's machine washable and highly durable so you can use it over and over!  It stays fresh and clean that way.  I have had one that I bought last year on my counter and it still looks like new after tons of washes. I was excited to receive a another The Original Dish Drying Mat complimentary through Influenster that was perfect for my 1st floor kitchen sink. How lucky can a girl get?   I find that it is so handy having a dish drying mat there too since I do a bunch of my cooking and washing in that sink there as well.  
It is easy to care for too:   Allow The Original Dish Drying Mat to thoroughly dry between uses. Frequently machine wash with like colors in cold water with a liquid detergent and before first use. Tumble dry low. Do not iron. Do not use bleach, fabric softener or dryer sheets.

By the way, The Original Dish Drying Mat is available exclusively at Bed, Bath and Beyond.  It is very reasonable at $4.99 too!

Review: Woolite Extra Dark Care and a FREE SAMPLE!

I grew up using Woolite® to wash delicates.  I always loved that luxurious scent and the elegant looking bottle.  My mom always used it on special items such as Angora and Cashmere sweaters, bathing suits and lingerie. I always remember a bottle of Woolite® in the laundry room growing up!  Of course I always have Woolite in my own home and use it frequently.

I was excited to find out through CrowdTap about a few new laundry products that Woolite has recently  introduced including Woolite® Extra Dark Care.  It was wonderful because I received 12 very generous samples of Woolite Extra Dark Care to share with friends through CrowdTap.  It was fun to have a real excuse to meet up with friends and neighbors and share my love of Woolite with them! I love that Woolite® Extra Dark Care was created with  a special formula that gently cleans and helps maintain the original color intensity of all your dark clothes.  That includes my expensive, designer denim.  I don't want my expensive jeans that cost me $200 to fade!  It won't cause fading, shrinking or stretching, so dark colors stay super bright and clothes look like new for longer than with a regular detergent.  I love the way my dark clothes STAY dark--no fading here as long as I use my Woolite Extra Dark Care.

I was excited to see that Woolite has a great coupon available on Facebook for Woolite Extra Dark Care.  Click here to access the Woolite Facebook  page and "like" them to sign up for a high value coupon!  Let me know what you think.  These coupons are usually only available for a limited time so hurry on over to Facebook and grab your coupon before you go shopping!

Review: Lindt Excellence Chocolate Bars Caramel with a Touch of Sea Salt and Coconut

I was very excited to receive two new Lindt Excellence bars at my door this past week.  What could be more exciting than Lindt chocolate??  Nothing, of course!  Both bars were dark chocolate and were two flavors that sounded delicious to me:  Coconut and Caramel With a Touch of Sea Salt. Don't they just sound delectable?  

Well, they were both super yummy.  The Coconut Excellence Bar was fantastic…like a grown up version of a Mounds bar. Definitely more sophisticated and rich though!  The Coconut Excellence Bar consisted of smooth dark chocolate flecked with bits of moist coconut.  It was a family favorite. 

I think my personal fave was the Caramel With a Touch of Sea Salt. I just LOVE chocolate, caramel and sea salt together. There’s something about that combination that just really tastes incredible to me…a deep dark chocolate with a sweet and chewy caramel and the flavor from the sea salt are perfect together.

*I received these Lindt Excellence Bars as part of my membership in the Lindt Excellence Influencers group.  My opinions are always my own.
