Introducing new Purex UltraPacks, with Oxi AND Giveaway

The Purex UltraPacks you love now comes with the stain fighting power of OXI.     As a Purex insider I was able to sample a package of Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI for my family to try.  

Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI  formula is so powerful it works to fight over 101 of your tough stains.  The concentrated DirtLift Action formula has 2x the cleaning power
(vs. traditional liquid detergent) in ever drop leaving your clothes so bright, white and clean.  delivers even better on Purex’s promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean, your friends will start to take notice.  

 The new Purex Triple Action leverages the best parts of there current formula, combined with new additions, to deliver great cleaning plus improved brightening power.  My white clothes are whiter, my colored clothes are more vibrant, and my family does not have stains left on our clothes.

New Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI  really gets out any stain. 




     























 New Purex UltraPacks plus OXI are pre-dosed liquid detergent packets containing powerful 2x concentrated liquid detergent.  These little packs are full of Purex's powerful Triple Action liquid formula. The new and improved Triple Action formula delivers even better on Purex’s promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean.

Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI can dissolve quickly in hot, warm or cold water making them ideal for all types of laundry.  Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI are also formulated and safe for all machines, including high-efficiency (HE).




I think  Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI  are  revolutionizing the way we do laundry.  Now I do not have to worry about spilling my liquid detergent.  There is also no messy drip of liquid detergent dripping down the bottle making a mess on my cabinets. No more measuring or spilling.  Now all you have to do is just drop the little packet into the washer and push start (see direction on package).  Our family loves anything that will save us time and money, and Ultra Packs do both.  In fact  the average family could save over $45 a year by using  Purex UltraPacks Plus OXI.*  I have changed the way I do laundry, and you can too.


highly recommend making the switch to Purex laundry detergent.  I know my family and I are glad we made the switch.


Now for what you have been waiting for....

Play date with New Lunchable Jr.

As a member of Crowdtap I was chosen to host a Play date with NEW Lunchable Jr.  Since my kids are a big fan of Lunchable I thought why not? 

My Little Man and Marebear invited their friend Sweetie to the park for a play date.  It was so hot at the park and before I knew it they were asking for something to eat.  We want to keep it delicious and nutritious so  I pulled out two Lunchables Jr. and opened them up. We sampled "Ants on a log" with Peanut butter, Sun Maid Raisins and "Very Berry Crunch" with Ritz Bits cheese crackers, Strawberry flavored diced apple pieces and Teddy Grams.  The kids went crazy for them.  They are the perfect size for little hands and little tummies.  They are also so conveniently small  you can take them anywhere; in the car or at a park  

Marebear  liked them so much she tried to feed herself (which is almost impossible since she has Rett syndrome and has little purposeful use of her hands).  I know she is very motived to eat by how much she likes the food.  If this is what it takes to get her to use her hand, I will buy a Lunchable Jr. for every meal!

If you want to know more about NEW Lunchable Jr. click here.



Disclosure:  I received two free Lunchable Jr. to host a play date with a friend.  I may receive prizes for my post.  However my opinion expressed here is my own.

Purex Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets

The other day a big rectangle box arrived on my door.  My son brought the box to me and I could smell the sweet smell of ...  what I though was flowers. I ripped open the box and to my surprise it was a box of Purex Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets (I received through the Purex insiders program) 


 I was a little surprised to say the least, and really excited to try them.  In a moment my whole house was full of the aroma of a mountain breeze.  I closed my eyes and imagined sitting on the shores of Lake Tahoe on a cold brisk morning eating brunch with my husband and his parents and my parents.  I smirked as I though of all the memories I had when we lived there (we have since moved to Texas).  It is funny how a scent can take you away to a different place in time.


If you are like me and would like to take a deep breath and experience  the freshness of a a mountain breeze, Try New Purex Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets in Mountain Breeze.  

Now Purex Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets have a new improved formula with 3X the fragrance!  You can choose from Mountain Breeze or Sweet Lavender.  Purex Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets do more than just leave your family's laundry soft and smelling fresh. They also:
  • Added freshness and softness through out your household.  
  • Reduces static cling. 
  • Repel pet hair and lint.

 They can also keep your whole house smelling fresh! Just choose your favorite fragrance and tuck a sheet in hampers, in the linen closets, and in your car.


Now for what you have been waiting for....

The New Hot Spot in Austin: Cafe Mueller

We joined Austinites as they celebrated the opening of the new H-E-B at Mueller.  What makes this grocery store special is H-E-B at Mueller is the greenest H-E-B store built to date.  In addition H-E-B at Mueller's, Cafe Mueller is the first restaurant in a H-E-B store built to date as of now.  Cafe Mueller is located inside the H-E-B Mueller however you can access the cafe without going into the store via the patio. It is open daily from 10am to 10pm.  You can place your order either inside HEB at the Cafe Mueller counter or outside on the patio at the bar. 


Cafe Mueller offers many different styles of food from wood-smoked brisket and ribs to Asian style rice bowls.  They also offer pizzas, sandwiches, pasta, soup and salads.  They even have a selection of desserts from their in store scratch bakery.  I was also told they have a new line of Gluten-free pizzas crust and bread options.  What most people are really excited about is their selection of international and Texas wines by the glass or the bottle and draft beers. Cafe Mueller is a quick style eatery that offers both indoors and outdoor seating.  







On the patio outside is a bar that offers beer and wine, on the weekend you can hear live music.  The full-service menu has many affordable prices. 



You order is delivered to you at your table by a friendly H-E-B partner.  Our meal was delivered to us in 5 minutes.
  

 My Little Man really enjoyed his kids meal.  He chose the spaghetti with meatball (price $3) with a side of grapes ( he had a choice between grapes, yogurt and chips).  As a mom, I was excited to have healthy side choices for my Little Man.   As you can see the kids meals have a very generous helping (great for another meal). (drink not included in price).


My Oldest tried the 8' BBQ Chicken and Smoked Gouda pizza (it also come in a 12").  The pizza is topped with smoked chicken, smoked gouda, red onion, parsley and H-E-B Kansas City BBQ sauce(cost $7). He liked it so much he ate the whole thing.     


 I decided to try the Tamarind Lime Mixed Vegetables Asian Bowl (I added chicken to it).  It was full of Shitake mushrooms, red peppers, edamame, onion, carrots and kale,in a delicious tamarind lime sauce.  It was way to much for lunch but, I did not let it go to waste. I took the rest home (cost $7.5). We also tried the BBQ ribs. They had a good kick to them and the meat fell off the bone. 
















Click Here to see their menu. 

Next time you are in the Mueller area of Austin, Texas near 51st street and Brekman., head over to H-E-B and stop by the Cafe Mueller.  Try some of their delicious meals with a glass of your favorite beverage. Then grab a cart and do some grocery shopping.  It  is always best to go shopping on a full stomach!  First pull out your sell phone and take a self guided tour of the store using QR codes throughout the store.  Then you can check out their Healthy Living section which includes bulk food, spices and tea. Choose from fresh-ground nut butters, local honeys, and natural and organic beauty products.  Why not head over to the Wine Department stocked with imported and hard to find varieties where you can ask expert wine steward who can make recommendations and even make special orders. The H-E-B Mueller has so much to do and see because it is so much more then a grocery store!
