Blueberry Cobbler & A Giveaway
GIVEAWAY CLOSED
Well, I wouldn’t typically show you such a dirty dish, but the dirtier the better for this post.
My BlogSpark and P&G recently sent me the baking dish and some Cascade Complete All-in-1 Action Pacs to give them a try.
Let me tell you, most everything I buy is store brand. I shop at Aldi’s for groceries, and Walmart for household products. I used the Walmart brand of dishwasher soap, because well…it was cheaper. On a typical day, I do 2 loads of dishes, on a cooking or baking day, I’ve been known to have 5-6 loads, so I try to save where I can. Before I tried the Cascade Action Pacs, I really thought that my dishwasher was not very good, that maybe it was just a bottom of the line dishwasher and didn’t get the job done. I would spend lots of time, pre-washing, rinsing and MOST of the time, re-washing dishes that came out of the dishwasher still dirty. So, I not only was spending more time washing the dishes, but also more money on water and soap.
My challenge was to bake a Blueberry Cobbler, wash the dish and show you the results.
And of course, I couldn’t bake without sharing the recipe…

I would use the GC to purchase household supplies. I don’t have a dishwasher, so I couldn’t get the Cascade product! I do wash dishes by hand and go through a lot of dish soap, so I would stock up on dish soap.

I actually need dishwasher detergent, so I’d probably buy that along with some groceries.
I tweeted about the giveaway too!

I’ve always wondered about that Cascade, now I will have a good reason to try it.
