Take Your Dishes to the Next Level of Clean with Cascade Platinum! ~ #MyPlatinum #spon

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Cascade. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

Take Your Dishes to the Next Level of Clean with Cascade Platinum! ~ #MyPlatinum #spon

Summer is here which means one thing… summer parties!! Yes, I love entertaining and hosting summer shindigs at my home. One of the biggest elements of any party is the food and the presentation. I always want to make sure my serving platters are the cleanest they can be, as well as my bake ware and other dishes I use to cook and serve food to my guests! This is exactly why I was excited to test out the new Cascade Platinum Pacs.

Cascade Platinum aims to achieve the most powerful clean to your dishes as well as keep your dishwasher sparkling. These pacs can scrub away tough 24 hour stuck o food, and helps eliminate the need for pre-wash. Now I admit, I’m a pre-washer. I totally wash my dishes before sticking them in the dishwasher. I was nervous to put dirty dishes in my washer, but I knew it the was only way to really test out these Pacs! Helping Cascade achieve this powerful dishware shine is the grease fighting power of Dawn! That’s right… Dawn is included in each little pac to give the cleaning power even more of a boost.

Go Behind the Scenes with Armie Hammer in "Cowboy Bootcamp" from THE LONE RANGER! ~ #LoneRangerHere at Maryland Momma we are counting down the days to the new THE LONE RANGER! In just 20 days, one of my most anticipated summer films will hit the big screen nationwide on July 3rd. Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp together in an action adventure? Sign me up for the first screening!

So you may have remembered the other day I posted a fun behind the scenes video featuring the Spirit Platform with the adorable Armie Hammer. Well today I have another awesome present for you! The cutie is back this time with his “Cowboy Bootcamp” video. Be sure to take a look below!

Also be sure to check out my Cowboy Cheesy Pie in honor of THE LONE RANGER! As promised, I’m cooking up some more spicy southwest inspired by the film. Stay tune…

From producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski, the filmmaking team behind the blockbuster “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, comes Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ “The Lone Ranger,” a thrilling adventure infused with action and humor, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes. Native American warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid (Armie Hammer), a man of the law, into a legend of justice—taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption.
