Don't be caught out in the rain with your



Fall is coming soon and with that comes lots of storms, rain, and just plain out wet weather. Having an umbrella handy is always nice. I have children so we give them the dollar store version which is hard to find, the dollar store is always selling out.

For me though I like to have a nice one to use to keep myself and children dry from where ever we are to the car.

Make no mistake this is not a light weight umbrella it is pretty hefty. Love that it has a wrist strap as well as an automatic pop up and retract button. So easy when your hands are already filled with packages, and well children. Love this umbrella, the best one I have ever had, and one I will hide from the kids. I will share with them but only under mommies use.

Lanier Garden Tools Ratcheting Pruning Shears




The last few years we have a had a small garden. This year we went a little bigger, not everything is growing but we will try those items again another year. We have a good crop of tomatoes, cucumber, and squash coming in so far. Our broccoli didn't do anything.

We are still waiting to see how our pumpkins and watermelons do. With gardening we are finding we need  some extra items in able for us to be able to do what we want to do.

Such as pruning back a tree that went dead on one side because the neighbors kids tried to climb on a tree that was too small and shocked the tree when they broke one of the branches. My husband said it should come back next year if not then we will take it down,

We also have a rose bush that needs some pruning. Years ago we moved it from the front yard to the front of the house under our daughters window. It has grown so big that we needed a better way to prune it. Having the right tools like the Lanier Garden Tools Ratcheting Pruning Shears really makes the job easier.

My husband and myself are disabled to we need all of the help we can get. The kids help and we hope they will help as we age, but someday they will have their own lives and we need to be able to do some of the yard work on our own.

We are in the process of filling up our gardening bucket with items we will need, the Lanier Garden Tools Ratcheting Pruning Shears were just one of the items we needed.

You can purchase the Lanier Ratcheting pruning shears on Amazon.


What Lanier has to say about their product.
Lanier Garden Tools Ratcheting Pruning Shears - Best Pruner for Weak Hands - 1/3 the Effort Compared to Regular Shears - Soft Grip & Ratchet Action Help Keep Your Hand Comfortable - Ultra Sharp Blade

MULTIPLY YOUR POWER - The computer designed Ratcheting Cam multiplies your power. The same ratcheting power you use to lift a car allows you to cut through branches up to one inch thick. Instead of trying to make the cut with one large difficult cut our pruner cuts through with three smaller cuts which multiplies your strength. Even if you don't have limited hand mobility who doesn't want to make work easier?
ENJOY GARDENING AGAIN - As we grow older hand strength diminishes. Also conditions like arthritis and carpal tunnel make pruning painful. The ergonomic rubberized grips design gives you great control even with the lightest grip. Also the Bright Red color makes it easy to see if you lay them down in the grass.
CRAFTSMAN QUALITY - The drop forged aluminum handle is lightweight but strong. The coated hardened blade is made from High Carbon Steel so it stays sharper longer. The looped finger guard helps to give you great control while protecting your fingers. The design allows for comfortable use by either left or right handed people. The convenient locking mechanism keeps the blade closed when not in use. The built in oil sponge allows you to coat the blade which is great for storage.
GUARANTEED - We give you a five year guarantee but realistically we expect them to last five times that. When used and maintained correctly you can probably hand these shears down to your children. Any tool when used in an unintended way can fail. If you are dissatisfied with the quality or functionality of the Lanier Ratcheting Shears within 5 Years of purchase let us know and we will repair or replace them. It's that simple.
MAKES THE PERFECT GIFT - You simply can't garden without a pair of shears. And truthfully most people have very poor quality pruners. Why not give that special someone a really great pair that they will appreciate every time they use them.

You can always use an extra set


Our family does a lot of cooking and baking, something is always going on in the kitchen. With that comes lots of messes and going through lots of measuring cups and measuring spoons. I really like that the Kitchen Zest  Measuring Spoons comes with a large round keychain hook so that all of my measuring spoons stay together.

In the past I have had my husband make me some kind of holder for my measuring spoons. I won't even look at measuring spoons that don't have someway I can join the whole set together. When you have children learning how to cook and bake you need to have something that keeps your items together so they don't get separated and lost.

The Kitchen Zest Measuring spoons come in two colors. I chose black because it goes with my kitchen better, but they do have green for those who like green better. These measuring spoons are stainless steel sturdy and have a nice soft grip on the handles so you don't drop them when they get wet while prepping your recipes.

Hangers that can stand up to the weight of a coat



Being a mother I have always had a problem finding hangers that can stand up to the weight of a Coat being hung. I usually end up using two or more hangers or on the rare occasion when we happen to have a wooden hanger, which sadly we haven't had in years. Even with two hangers most of the time the weight of the coat bends and warps them, which leaves my coat not being able to be supported in the closet like it should. 

BriaUSA sent us some of the  Coat Jacket Hangers they have available and all I can say is that my jackets have never been supported as well as they are now. My winter closet will be in much better hands or in this case hangers this year, making my closet look much more clean as well. 

You can purchase BriaUSA 50 Coat Jacket Hangers Gold Wire Heavy Duty on Amazon.
