The Many Uses for Biz - From Removing Stains on Clothes to Cleaning Decks, Toilet Bowls and More!

Disclosure: I was provided with complimentary product from Biz to help facilitate a review.  All views shared are mine and mine alone.




It seems like I always in the laundry room putting on an load of laundry or pulling clothes out of the dryer, just to have to fold and put away.  With only four people in our house, it amazes me how much laundry I am doing on a weekly basis.  And, now that school is back is session I am finding myself in the laundry room 3-4 days a week, just to keep a handle on all the clothes so they don't pile up, and to make sure everyone has outfits they need for their sports and extracurricular activities.  Do you find yourself spending too much in the laundry room, too?  

I was hoping to put in a few hours of posting tonight after dinner, but then remembered I had thrown on a load of laundry earlier today and totally forgot to throw in the dryer. And, when I opened the dryer door, my husband remembered he put his gym clothes he had washed the night before in to dry.  So, after having his take his stuff out I was able to put my load of laundry in to dry.  Now my laundry room isn't that big...it is actually party of one of our half baths on the main floor of the house.  But, whenever I go in the bathroom, no matter what I am there for, everyone has to come in and join me.  So, it feels like we are seeing how many people we can fit into a telephone booth scenario.  Tonight it was just my husband (who surprised me and was folding his laundry to put away) and me.  I watched him folding his clothes and admiring how bright and clean they looked.  He stopped and said, "Hey, did you know about this bottle of Biz and what it does?"  I had a blank stare at first, as I recalled talking to him time and again about Biz after becoming an ambassador for this stain remover earlier in the year, and throughout the year whenever I wowed myself with how well this product got the girls' clothes looking clean and kept the colors bright, all while removing stains I thought were set in.  But, I humored my husband and went along and listened to his story. 


He started raving about the product and said he found the bottle a couple of weeks ago. He wasn't sure what it was and read the back.  When he realized it was a stain fighter, he tried it on some of his clothes he had hid from me as he knew I would get mad having seen grass, chocolate and pasta sauce stains on them.  If I am not soaking the girls clothes, I am doing my husbands.


My husband said he didn't know how well this product would work, but after trying it the first time, he was amazed at well it worked in removing not only the grass, chocolate and pasta sauce stains, but his sticky gym clothes got cleaner and Biz helped remove some of the armpit stain he had. He was going to throw away a few of his workout shirts as they looked gross, but after his experience with Biz, he was ready to really put this product to the test.  He gathered up a bunch of his seen-better days workout shirts and threw them in the washer machine with laundry detergent and Biz.  He washed the clothes as he normally would -- the only difference was his adding a cup of Biz to the load.  Once the wash was done, he couldn't wait to check out the results.  He was amazed at how clean the clothes looked, and he didn't have to run the clothes through a second time like has had to in the past to remove the sweat smell, as it was gone.  



Like a kid, my husband held up a few of his shirts he pulled from the dryer to show off how well Biz added to a load of laundry with our free and clear laundry detergent got his clothes clean and bright.  Who knew a guy could get excited about doing the laundry. Now that I think about it, I was wondering why there was less of my husband's clothes in the loads of laundry I have been doing recently.  He said he liked using Biz and seeing the results firsthand, that he found himself looking forward to doing the laundry.  If I only knew this sooner, I would have bought bottles of Biz long ago. :-)


I loved hearing my husband talk about how much he loves Biz and how impressed he was with how it removed stains.  This only reaffirmed why I love Biz and am proud to be a Biz ambassador.  If it wasn't for Biz, I would dread going into the laundry/bathroom to soak the girls' clothes with juice, blood, grass and other stains, only to be disappointed after repeated soaking and a laundry cycle to find the stains still remained.  My girls don't like wearing stained clothes --even though they are the ones who stained them...and, I hate having to throw out their clothes or use as rags, and then go shopping to replace them, especially after just buying new clothes so recently for back to school.  But, thanks to Biz I don't have to stress when it comes to the girls showing me a stain on their clothes.  Instead, like my husband, I get excited about seeing how well Biz works in removing each of these tough stains, leaving the clothes cleaner and brighter each and every time.



If you find yourself spending a few hours a week in your laundry room like I do, or hate the thought of scrubbing your family's clothes just to get a tough set in stain out, why not take the stress out of it all and pick up a bottle of Biz to use with your laundry detergent.  You will be surprised at how a little goes a long way when you pair Biz with your favorite laundry detergent...and, how well Biz works at removing stains.  I bet you will get excited just like my husband was and want to show off your family's cleaner, brighter clothes and do a before and after stain removal demo with family and friends.  You, too, will find laundry time fun.  Yes, I said it, FUN.  Biz makes it fun and once you give it a try you will agree. :-)

And, here is a little "Did you know?" for surprising ways you can use Biz around the house...

Banza Pasta Has Double the Protein, Four Times the Fiber, and Nearly Half the Net Carbs...Need I Say More! #tryazon #BanzaPastaParty @eatbanza

Disclosure: I was selected to host a Tryazon Banza in-house sampling party and was sent samples to help facilitate an honest review. All views shared are mine and mine alone.




Banza


"With double the protein, four times the fiber, and 40% fewer net carbs, Banza's pasta made from chickpeas is perfectly nutritious, hearty, and satisfying."


Does your family love pasta?  How about chickpeas?  If you answered "Yes" to both of these...or even just one :-)  do I have the product for you..  Have you heard about Banza?  It is a pasta made from chickpeas.  Yes, you read that right...chickpeas.  And, not only is this pasta better and healthier than the average pasta most of us grab from the pantry and cook up for pasta night for our families, but it tastes amazing.  

Last weekend, I had family and friends over for a fun pasta night. I didn't tell them that they would be trying a new pasta.  I wanted it to be a surprise and get their thoughts on the pasta.  At first site, my guests thought I was cooking whole wheat pasta because the look of the pasta.  But, then they tried the pasta and could tell it wasn't whole wheat pasta.  They loved the taste, and couldn't believe when I told them that it was made from chickpeas. Even my girls who are both picky eaters, gave the pasta a try and loved it, and both asked for seconds. :-)

Here is more about Banza (which you can purchase at a Target store near, including how it compares to other pasta protein and fiber wise...




"Banza makes pasta from chickpeas that looks, cooks, and tastes like traditional pasta, yet has double the protein, four times the fiber, and 40% fewer net carbs than traditional pasta. Banza is also naturally gluten-free, low glycemic, and non-GMO. 



Since launching in 2014, Banza has expanded to over 5,000 stores nationwide. It's the fastest growing pasta brand in the U.S. Banza offers its chickpea pasta in twelve of the pasta shapes you know and love. In addition, the they have a line of mac and cheese. Despite their growth, Banza’s mission has remained the same: to make nutritious food more accessible. Banza believes healthy should be fun and affordable - making the foods you love, love you back!"

Banza Pasta Is:




• Made from chickpeas 
• High protein 
• High fiber
• Lower carb 
• Low glycemic 
• Gluten-free 
• High in iron 
• Non-GMO 
• Free of the top 8 allergens
• Made in a nut-free facility 
• Vegan 





If your child likes mac and cheese, you should pick up the chickpea pasta mac and cheese from Banza to try with them.  It tastes just like the regular mac and cheese, and is a great way to get a healthier pasta dish on the plate and into your child's belly.  


Banza® Chickpea Pasta Mac and Cheddar Classic Cheddar 5.5oz

I was so excited when I went to Target to pick up more Banza for the pantry and saw this mac and cheese, as both of my girls could eat mac and cheese for breakfast, lunch and dinner if I let them.  I made a point to stock up on the mac and cheese, too, and now whenever the girls go to the pantry to grab a box for me to make for lunch, I am happy when they com back to the kitchen and hand me a box of Banza mac and cheese.  :-)

Since our pasta party, I have tried a couple recipes from the Banza site, and they were all winners with my family, especially the creamy tomato basil rotini recipe.  


Creamy Tomato Basil Rotini | Made with Banza chickpea pasta

This recipe cooks up in 25 minutes, making it a perfect dish to whip up for your family during the week, when you are scratching your head wondering what to make the family that everyone will eat and enjoy.



Check out the "Recipes" tab on the Banza website for inspiration on quick and easy recipes that you can make using this great tasting chickpea pasta.  Just be warned, don't look at the recipes on an empty stomach as your stomach will be growling with all the colorful pictures of each pasta dish.  I can't wait until this weekend when I will be trying out the Banza pot pie recipe I found and that looks delicous.



Who knew to add pasta to a pot pie dish.  So much healthier than a crust, and I can see the pasta absorbing all that pot pie goodness.  Mmm, I am getting hungry just thinking about it. :-)

So, if you love pasta and love looking for ways to serve up healthier dishes for your family, why not consider picking up a box of Banza chickpea pasta to try with your family.  



You will all be impressed at the taste and find yourselves saying your found a new favorite pasta, just like my family and friends are after experiencing Banza pasta at our pasta party last weekend.  :-)

DISH introduces whole-home 4K Netflix experience








DISH introduces whole-home 4K Netflix experience

Netflix app now on 4K Joey clients for 4K viewing in multiple rooms; builds on Hopper 3 availability announced April 2016

"DISH is now the first major U.S. pay-TV provider to offer a whole-home 4K Netflix experience. After offering Netflix Ultra HD titles on its Hopper 3 DVR since April 2016, the company added the app to its 4K Joey client. Now DISH customers have the ability to stream the robust catalog of Ultra HD TV shows and movies on Netflix in multiple rooms throughout the home.


When connected to a Hopper 3, DISH’s 4K Joey provides similar TV functionality to other rooms in the home. Hopper 3 supports up to six 4K Joeys simultaneously, powering a total of seven 4K TVs at one time.

“Netflix is leading the industry with one of the largest 4K libraries available,” said Niraj Desai, DISH vice president of product management. “Our customers love watching their favorite Netflix TV shows and movies in Ultra HD on Hopper 3, so we’re extending the app to our 4K Joey clients to deliver the added flexibility of a whole-home 4K Netflix experience.”



To access Netflix’s 4K programming, DISH customers should select the “Home” or “App” button on the remote control, then select the Netflix icon. The app can also be accessed on channel 370 in the DISH programming guide. Once in the Netflix app, Ultra HD titles are identifiable by searching the terms “4K” or “UHD.” With Netflix integrated into DISH’s universal search results, its 4K titles will also be populated in episode lists using the DISH remote’s traditional search functionality.

DISH customers must subscribe to Netflix’s $11.99 per month subscription plan and have a 4K-compatible television to access this Ultra HD content on Hopper 3 and 4K Joey. Netflix recommends an Internet connection speed of at least 25 megabits per second to stream Ultra HD titles."

Don't worry I am not going to bore you with an in-depth review of the movie as you have probably seen and are just picking up the new blu-ray combo or digital download to add to your Transformers movie collection.  Right? :-)  My post today is mainly a reminder if you forgot to pre-order the movie, or have been hiding under a rock and didn't know it was releasing. :-)  In addition, I wanted to share a fun family craft you can enjoy with your as part of your upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight movie night.  We just watched this movie with the girls and did the cute flower pots craft with them, and days later this is all they are talking about.  They are already asking to watch Transformers: The Last Knight again when Family Movie Night rolls around this Friday.  They both keep saying it was so cool, and how they wish that cars really transformed into robots and talked.  And, I know if you are a fan on this movie franchise, no matter your age, you, too, wish you could own a car like Bubblebee or Optimus Prime...I sure would.

This movie is the fifth installment in the Transformers franchise, and does not disappoint.  From start to finish you are engrossed in the movie and the action does not die down until the credits begin to roll.  Note that a few of the battle sequences may be a little much for younger audiences, as this is a PG-13 movie.  I distracted my girls at these times with a popcorn run, but could hear my husband reacting excitedly to the battles and explosions that filled the living room.  Overall, this movie is one of the best of the Transformers movies...sorry, I am partial to the first one as it got me hooked on the franchise.  But, if you are a fan of the franchise you will enjoy the storyline and action packed sequences that pull you in and have you hooked up until the end, where you find yourself wanting to see the sixth installment already. :-)

So, if you have a house filled with Transformers fans, or are looking for a fun date night movie at home with your love, why not pick up Transformers: The Last Night, available now on DVD, Blu-Ray, Digital Download and other formats.

-- Check Out This Fun and Easy Transformers: The Last Knight Flower Pots Craft  --


I don't know about you, but I love planning fun family movie nights with my family.  Don't you?  Our movie nights start with making homemade pizza or ordering out (depending on our moods and if we are hungry or can wait for delivery :-) ), fun crafts or activities themed to the movie we will be watching, and then popcorn and movie while snuggled up under warm blankets on the couch.  

Last week I was asked to share a fun Transformers Flower Pots crafts for the upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight Blu-Ray Combo release, which arrived in stores and online today.  I was so excited when I saw this as I knew my girls would have so much fun making and it would make for a great centerpiece and bonus treat before we settled in to watch the movie.

Instead of the Transformers cake pops seen in the photo above we ended up dipping fruit in chocolate and adding sprinkles and candies to them, and then placed them on skewer sticks and then into our Transformers flower pots complete with the easy to apply stencil you can print out and use for the craft at home.

Here are the easy to follow along instructions for the Transformers: The Last Knight Flower Pots craft that everyone in the family will love gathering around the table to make, and one you will admire for years to come.  My girls love filling this pot with snacks on skewers, but plan to add a plant to it come the spring time.  But, for now it sitting in our bay window in our living room, reminding us all of our fun family movie night we had the other night watching our new favorite Transformers movie. :-)
