Traveling Days : EatSmart Packing Cube Set Review!

Hello Neighbors!

We are doing great here! Staying busy at the house, but we are also getting ready to take another trip to The Creation Museum. I can't tell you how thankful I was on our last trip to have the 5 Piece Packing Cubes Set from EatSmart!

As I told you above, EatSmart sent me their 5 Piece Packing Cubes Set for me to feature during Traveling Days At the Fence. I received it in the brilliant Red. This was so helpful to have on our last trip, and I am looking forward to using them again this trip.

Here is a little bit about the TravelWise 5 Piece Packing Cube Set, and why it is so useful for frequent travelers like me... "The TravelWise 5 piece packing cube set is a travel essential that allows clothes to stay folded and neat when packed in their own "small drawers". The cubes are fantastic for staying organized on both short and long travels and help you avoid over packing.

Constructed of lightweight, durable nylon, these multi-sized cubes allow you to compartmentalize similar items such as shirts, pants, undies and electronic accessories and streamline packing.

The open mesh panel affords breathability and visibility--no more digging through luggage to find that elusive sock. Suitcase security checks are less daunting since screeners can easily view contents through the mesh insert without causing suitcase havoc.

For extended trips that include a different city/ hotel every few days, TravelWise packing cubes let you " unpack without unpacking". Simply take out the cubes as needed , then pop them back in your suitcase when leaving."

These are the perfect sizes! I have been told that I am picky when it comes to packing... I'm really not sure why though. I mean, come on... doesn't everybody plan what they will wear each day of the trip, fold everything needed for each outfit together, and then pack the "outfits" where the one you will need each day is at the top of your suitcase, and then the next day the outfit for that day is at the top of the suitcase and so on? Okay, so maybe I overthink this just a little. :) So, if you are a picky packer like me, these are truly a lifesaver!

My sisters have each decided that they want a set for our trips, but especially for the cruise we are taking this coming February. These will be so very helpful. If you travel semi-regularly at all, you definitely need to purchase yourself a set of these! You can purchase these (as well as sets of three cubes, a luggage scale, etc.) on the EatSmart Website.

You can also keep an eye on their Facebook Page and Twitter Page as they occasionally have giveaways, as well as posting about their products, recipes, etc.

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June.

Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. ~Mercy

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child
