Growth… and don’t miss the fly swatter post especially if you are having problems with pesky flies this time of year

I didn’t realize my e-mails weren’t getting sent out after my blog posts until just a few days ago, I finally figured out the problem and it was because more people had subscribed than the plan allowed that I had originally signed up for, makes me excited that enough people want to see my posts that I had to upgrade! I love that you are enjoying my posts. In the mean time there were 5-6 posts you may not have seen, one being my recent post on this awesome fly swatter. I also included a post on my favorite waffle iron, granulated garlic I love to use, my favorite brand of black pepper, an extra large casserole dish measuring 10X15, some of my favorite kids shoes, a recipe for my favorite whole wheat blender pancakes, some info about spaghetti squash and how I like to cook it, and my favorite brand of salsa that is super healthy. If you missed there’s the run down there is a better explanation of some of the products in the individual blog post so you can just scroll through the recent posts if you want a more detailed explanation as to why I like them, enjoy all the new posts. Happy Monday!

* I included the picture of these amazing whole wheat blender pancakes too because I wanted to be sure you didn’t miss these delicious beauties.

The Executioner (the best fly swatter you’ll ever own)

The Executioner fly swatter 1

You probably needed this post a month ago with all the crazy flies this time of year but there is never enough time in a day to post all I want to post (I have a million things in my head I want to share with you but never enough time). This is an awesome fly swatter and every bit worth the $20. My sister in law Pam told me about this last year during fly season. I got one for my husband for his birthday and it is his favorite and because he actually enjoys using it we rarely have flies in our house, he usually chases them around once a day and they stay gone. This little guy is amazing and you’ll love him. It works by shocking the flies, you have to catch them in mid air which I love because instead of smashing them on the counter they fall after they are shocked by The Executioner and then you can pick them up with a Lysol wipe or a tissue keeping things a lot cleaner. Here’s the link on Amazon where I got it. Happy fly swatting and may all the flies in your house stay gone!

Double Waffle Iron

double waffle iron

double waffle iron 2Need I say more… It makes two waffles at the same time! It is an amazing invention and we love this waffle iron to pieces (if it’s possible to love a waffle iron like that). My mom and dad gave this little gadget to us for Christmas a couple years ago and we LOVE it. Along with our baby cakes waffle maker (a post I’ll do another day) these are by far our favorite waffle makers. I love that it makes 2 waffles at the same time, it really cuts down on the amount of time you have to spend cooking waffles (and who doesn’t want more time) you can also adjust how hot you get the iron so you can decide if you want them to be crisp or a little softer, it also has the deep groves so it is perfect for Belgian Waffles or regular waffles. This waffle iron is similar to the industrial Belgian Waffle makers you find in hotels or cafeterias. This little guy would make a great Christmas, Birthday or Mother’s Day gift for grandma’s or mom’s, or sisters, or aunts or friends, if you are like me you would be thrilled to have this baby in your kitchen. Enough about how much I love it here’s where you can get it if you want one for yourself. On a chance you might be able to find one at Costco but it’s mostly chance, I haven’t seen them there for a couple years (these babies aren’t super easy to find) and if I remember right the Amazon price right now is cheaper, here is a link for it on Amazon. Happy double waffle making!
