Hamburger Helper Review!

Well, I decided that we needed to cook both boxes at the same time so we could sample the new flavors.  I invited our neighbors over for dinner to get their opinion also.  Everyone liked both the Ultimate Beef Stroganoff and the Cheesy Italian Beef flavors, however we all had our favorite.  The majority voted for the Ultimate Beef Stroganoff flavor.  I had never tried the Beef Stoganoff flavor before and really thought it had great flavor and liked it the most.  Needless to say both pans were empty before you knew it and I never got a picture to share with you.  The Cheesy Italian Beef was tasty also.  You could taste the Italian herbs and they weren't over powering.  The best part was how quick and easy it was to cook dinner.  Not only did Hamburger Helper bring our family together, it brought our neighbors family together with us.

Pssst, thank you for giving us this opportunity.

Make sure you try these new flavors.

** Pssst by General Mills provided a free sample of their Hamburger Helper new flavors so I could write a review. However, all of the opinions expressed here are my own.

Check out what came in the mail today!

As a Pssst Member I received these products today so we can try the new flavors and share my review with all of you.   Hamburger Helper is a family favorite of ours so we are excited to try the new flavors.  Tomorrow night I will make both boxes and post my review.

As you can see in the pictures, I also received a bunch of coupons.  Hamburger Helper would like you to try it also, so they gave me coupons to giveaway.  So who would like a coupon?  You can save $.70 on one (1) Hamburger Helper Ultimate Beef Stroganoff or Cheesy Italian Beef Home Skillet Meals.  I have 5 coupons that I will be giving away.  Post a comment on either this blog post or my Facebook post regarding this and I will randomly pick the winners tomorrow night after dinner.

DIY Gardening with Mr. C

I was very excited to hear from Mr. C with some new gardening tips to start the 2012 gardening season.  For all our new members, each week on Thursday during gardening season, we have a guest post from Mr. C who is our blog home gardener.  Last year we received some great gardening tips.  Make sure you visit often to see his new posts each week.  Here is his first post of the new year.

Hello Everyone!

Did that first seed catalog arrival get you longing to start gardening?  If you don’t want to wait, you can lengthen both ends of your growing season by using a “cold frame” (miniature green-house). It could be as basic as a box with a transparent top (like an old storm window).  The sun warms the air and soil inside during the day (even cloudy days) and the enclosure traps some of the heat and keeps its’ loss overnight.  On very warm and sunny days, it may be necessary to open the top slightly so as not to cook the plants inside. To preclude this from happening, you can incorporate a temperature regulating opening device (see next paragraph). I was able to grow watermelons by starting them in a cold frame, and then later moving them to the garden.  My current box (shown below) has galvanized and sloping (for rain & snow run-off) vinyl sides, a 2x2pressure treated frame and an aluminum/Plexiglass storm window top. I tie the windows down to prevent them from blowing away (I could add hinges instead). I set it over my parsley bed in the fall to allow me to have fresh herbs all winter. Even if parsley freezes, it is quite normal when it thaws.

If you type “cold frame” in your on-line search box, you can see a vast array of kits (starting around $40) and automatic opening mechanisms available. Stores do not stock them but Home Depot and Lowes will allow you to order on-line for free in-store pickup. If you act now, you could be eating fresh lettuce before spring arrives.

Happy Gardening!

Mr. C
