Amy from Allentown, PA is the winner of the Sam’s Club Sunny Days Snack Pack. Congratulations Amy!

Often when I’m out in the garden I need a little something to tide me over until the weeding is done. Since Meadowwood Garden is not close to the house this meant stopping what I was doing, entering the house without tracking dirt all over, rummaging through the kitchen, etc. In other words, it was a bit of a pain in the rear.

Thanks to the fine folks at General Mills I finally have the solution to my garden snacking needs — Nature Valley Chewy Trail Mix Bars! Talk about a perfect snack for the situation — they are individually wrapped, easy to carry, taste great and they really seem to hit the spot. This is one of those times where you say to yourself, “Now why didn’t I think of that before?”

Would you like to try Nature Valley Chewy Trail Mix Bars for yourself? Meadowwood Garden is giving away a Sam’s Club Sunny Days Snack Pack to one lucky reader!

Congrats AmandsSue!  Thank you for your interest in Meadowwood Garden and Wanchai Ferry.

Sometimes I crave Chinese food, but where I live there isn’t a place to get it nearby.  When the opportunity came along to try out these Wanchai Ferry frozen entrees I was like, “Sign me up!”  I’m glad I did too, because now I know how to satisfy that craving whenever it hits.

Each Wanchai Ferry frozen entrée has all the ingredients needed to prepare a great-tasting, complete Chinese meal for 2 in only 14 minutes! They come in five delicious flavors including Orange Chicken, Shrimp Lo Mein, Spicy Garlic Chicken, Sweet & Sour Chicken and Sweet & Spicy Shrimp. Additionally, all of the entrees have no added MSG!

I received the Orange Chicken flavor to try.  The instructions were easy to follow and in less than 15 minutes I was eating a rather tasty meal!  Keep in mind that I am the world’s worst cook, so if the meal turned out OK for me it certainly will for anyone else!

If you want to try Wanchai Ferry yourself there is a $1.50 off coupon available at www.wanchaiferry.com! For meal tips to enhance your Wanchai Ferry frozen entrée check out their website at: http://www.wanchaiferry.com/MealTips.aspx.

Simply place your favorite Whips! yogurt cup in the freezer overnight and you will have a chilled yogurt indulgence that you don’t have to get from the ice-cream truck or at the parlor So this summer, before you hit the beach, park or your own backyard, don’t forget to stock your freezer with Yoplait Whips!
