I enjoy hosting parties, but picking up or preparing the food is such a hassle. Toting two little kids through a store (or having them try to help me prepare multiple items) can be such a pain, when I’m also trying to clean up the house and get everything else for the get together. So, the idea of food delivery sounds just perfect, especially if the quality is good.
I had the chance to try out Schwan’s new crispy wings. We received the barbeque and buffalo styles, and prepared them this weekend when my family visited. They are easy to prepare, and actually taste great! They are definitely crispy, and the buffalo sauce is pretty mild. You add the sauce at the end, so you can add as much or as little as you like.

Disclosure: I received complimentary samples of Schwan’s crispy wings for review.

I admit that I usually watch the Super Bowl primarily for the commercials, not for the actual game. However, since my home team, the New England Patriots, are playing in the big game this year, I’ll be watching it for both the commercials and the game. This year, Downy Unstopables, a product I’ve already raved about, is showing their own commercial – the first time Procter and Gamble’s Downy Unstopables has been involved with the NFL and has aired a spot on Super Bowl Sunday.
Downy Unstopables is added directly to your washer, and scents your clothes much more than traditional Downy. It’s used in conjunction with the detergent and fabric softener that you already use, and it’s incredibly effective. I’ve already used the supply I got at BlogHer, and have continued to purchase and use it as a part of my laundry routine. The scent definitely lasts, and I’ve had lots of people ask why our clothes smell so good!
The Downy Unstopables commercial, a fun remake of Coca Cola’s 1980 advertisement (yes, it’s been that long!) featuring the legendary “Mean” Joe Greene of the Pittsburgh Steelers, will air between 5:30 and 6pm on Super Bowl Sunday, but a sneak peek is already online. Check out the Downy Unstopable Super Bowl commercial here.
In addition, Downy is also offering a fun “Touch Downy” promotion during the game. Each time a team (and, of course, it’s going to be the Patriot’s, right???) scores a touchdown, those who tweet the hashtag #TouchDowny to the Downy Twitter account (@Downy) are eligible to receive Downy products and Unstopable Fan Packages.
Go Pats!
