I chose this Wearever leak-control underwear to review not because I have a serious problem with leaking but, accidents do happen. I was given the product for free to do an honest review. I was not compensated for my review. When I am traveling or hiking and going for extended periods without the restroom I am more prone to have a bathroom emergency. You have been holding your bladder for awhile and one big sneeze...and whoops, you know what happens!
So, I wore them all around town on different days. I also wore them at a long outdoor party and another long day of outdoor adventures. They are nice because they keep you dry and are not uncomfortable ad bulky. If I had a chronic problem with bladder issues. These are the underwear I would choose to wear. They come in different colors and styles to choose from. In both men and womens.
They hold up through many washings and they retain there shape. For a person that may struggle with incontinence this a plus. That fact that they can be re-used is awesome. Not only will you save money but you will also be helping the environment. No more throwaway that are just added to the already overflowing landfills. They trap liquid and have odor-protection which gives you the confidence you need to get through your day.
Wearever will be giving a pair away to one luck winner. Please leave a comment below on why you would like a pair. One entry per person. Multiple entries will be discarded. Contest ends 5pm May 25, 2015

Business to Business Bartering in PA Dutch Country
Why Join a Barter Exchange?
Top Five Reasons:
1.) Improve Cash Flow Sometimes as businesses we have excess or slow moving inventory. Now, we have modern barter that turns those unused products and unfilled time into much needed goods and services. Unless your billing %100 of your time or have every table/hotel room filled, and products flying off the shelves then barter is for you.
2.) Helps Support Local Businesses and the Community When we barter with the businesses around us, we are in essence strengthening our community and developing relationships. We are providing opportunities to keep small businesses alive and well.
3.) Save Cash for Things You Really Need Let's admit it, Our economy is not always thriving. When we trade and barter for goods and services we need. We can store up our cash reserves for things that we might not able to barter such as electric or rent.
4.) Brings in New Business Statistics show that when you barter 95% of barter comes from new customers. That means, customers you didn't have. And now, your competitors don't have! Plus, the word of mouth that is getting out there about your business will attract even more customers.
5.) Its Recession Proof!

Bacchus Break Silicone Wine Glasses
I have to admit I was very excited to do this review. I love wine and I love to travel. I'm always hiking or going on some little excursion. So, I need things that are lightweight, portable, non-breakable, and easy to care for. Bacchus Break stemless wine glasses fit that bill.
The first thing I did when I took them out of the box was throw them. I'm sorry, but I just couldn't resist. I had to make sure they held up to their claim of non-breakable. All the photos you see are taken after I threw them So, after throwing them around and up against the wall and on the rocks outside. I washed them and let them air out for 24 hours as the manufacture suggests to get rid of any residual rubber type smell.
Then the fun began. I tested them with every kind of liquid imaginable. I had wine, juice, beer, soda, and water. I took them here there and everywhere. They are fun to use. Just be careful, and don't do I like did and grab them by the top. I went too quickly to grab it and reached at the top and ended up knocking it over. Hopefully in the future they will weight the bottoms down a little more to help clumsy people like myself. Of course their motto is "Because drunk people drop shit!". You gotta love a company with a sense of humor. So, I guess in all reality they had me in mind when they made them. I have to admit they were a bit strange at first but the more I used them the more I loved them.
Other things I like about them are:
* They are %100 freezer and dishwasher safe
* They help reduce landfill waste
* They partner with 1% For The Planet
* They have a no hassle money back guarantee
Bacchus Break Silicone Wine Glasses make great gifts. I already have some people in mind for Christmas and birthday presents. But shhh, don't tell them that!

PA Dutch Country Bald Eagle Buried in the Snow
Folks often ask me what the weather is like here in Pa Dutch Country. Well, we just had a nice little storm the other day. I got about a little over nine inches of snow. Not far from my house is beautiful Codorus State park. And in that park lies a symbol of Freedom protecting her unborn babies. No matter what the weather is this mother and father team of eagles guard and protect their unborn eaglets. You can barely see the eagle peeking out of the snow as she lays on her eggs.
Join me as I watch in awe these beautiful creatures symbolic of our country's freedom as they shelter the eggs of these soon to be beautiful eaglets.

Fastnacht Day!
Fastnachts are basically a doughnut, typically made with potatoes. Fastnachts can be squares, triangles, rectangles, and even round. Fastnacts do very from county to county in PA. The typical fastnachts are plain, and then you cut them in half like you would a bagel. You can put on Table Syrup such as Golden Barrel Table Syrup. Today's modern
fastnachts may have have glaze or could have granulated or powdered sugar on them.
Fastnacht Day is Shrove Tuesday the night before Ash Wednesday (the first day of lent). Fastnacht literally means " fast night". So what people would do is use up all the lard and fattening things before Lent when it would be given up.

Waynesboro Theatre Slated to be Renovated
It's great to see that an old theater is going to be re-vamped and kept in the community in Waynesboro, PA. It's a wonderful way to keep downtown alive and prosperous. Scott Hershberger, director of Economic Development at Mainstreet Waynesboro, Inc., actually said "I definitely think it will bring people downtown," he said. "From an economic development standpoint, hopefully they'll come downtown, eat dinner, check out one of our specialty stores and stay for a while." And I believe he is definitely right. I know I personally plan to visit the theatre when it re-opens. To find out more about the renovations follow this link to an article in the Public Opinion by Marcus Rawhut.
