Wisk’s new laundry detergent takes on the tough stains… and news about my armpits

I hate laundry.  Anyone else feel the same lack of love?  Considering that I was in charge of all the laundry growing up, in our HUGE house of 3 I’ve been complaining a long time.  I am almost as old *shudders* as Wisk, the first liquid laundry detergent (1956) on the market.  Wisk® has been cleaning America’s laundry FOR ALMOST THE PAST 50 years. I have been hating laundry FOR ALMOST THE PAST 50 years.

Wisk® and I have so much in common.

I ruined every shirt with the “puberty sweats”  in the days before spot treaters and the days before special cleaning ingredients in detergents.  Back in the days you made a thick detergent paste to put on your underarm stains in the hopes they would come clean.  Even then Wisk packed a punch but my underarms came back swinging.

It was easier to wear a lot of white because it was easier to bleach.

I was too young in that photo to care or to sweat, but I was old enough to throw whatever food didn’t land on my clothes at the cat.   My mother is probably only smiling because she’s counting the days until I am old enough to do all the laundry.

I remember…


Now, they’ve upgraded their formula, but not their price, to tackle stains ..,your tough stains.  The formula includes Stain Spectrum™ Technology, enzymes and cleaning agents targeting the full range of stains on a molecular level for a powerful clean.

That’s sexy science speak for “gets it super clean.”

No more “ring around the collar”.  Wisk is here to tackle all stains groups.

There are hundreds of different stains but most stains fall into three major groups:

* Carbohydrates such as milk chocolate
* Proteins such as grass
* Oils such as peanut butter

The other groups of stains include:

* Bio such as blood
* Bleachable such as coffee
* Particulate such as dirt
* Synthetics such as ink

Wisk attacks them all.  Look for future laundry challenges as I take on a few of these…or make my kids do it.

And one bottle cleans 32 loads and costs around $6.   Give it a try.  Stains are a pain but don’t have to be.

Did we celebrate or what?  Yes, I had a ball at the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration.  I mean who wouldn’t?  Being treated like rockstars all week.

Dinner celebrations with characters, entertainment, including a concert with Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato and food prepared by Food Network’s Mr. Dinner Impossible.

Characters everywhere and at every event…

I could concentrate this post on the media fast pass that allowed us to get immediate fastpass tickets even when they were sold out…and ride Toy Story in 4D over and over and …

I could talk about meeting Disney Channel stars and how cool that was for my kids…I mean how often does a kid get to plant trees and chat with Allison Stoner discussing teen stuff?

Guy Kawasaki, Kathy Ireland, Marissa Jaret Winokur, Chris Brogan and Maxine Clark just to name a few, shared their insight.

I could share all that amazingness, but I have something else to share.

It’s a fabulous program offered at Disney this year.  Give A Day, Get A Disney Day…and it’s focus is on volunteering in your community…one day in exchange for a one theme-one day pass at the Disney Parks.

How cool is that?

You can check out the places in your area where you can volunteer…it’s all explained on the site.

And while you’re at it, check out the initiative the Disney Channel Stars are championing the Friends For Change project, (as seen on the Friends for Change Fact Sheet encouraging kids and people to do just the little things to help the environment.

Turning off the water while you brush your teeth…turning off lights when you leave a room….the little things that all add up.

We were so fortunate to experience these and other events at Social Media Moms Celebration.  And let me tell you it is a week we will not soon forget.  We came away with some fun and over the top experiences, but also an appreciation for volunteerism and making changes in the world.

Disclosure: We received a “sweetheart” deal from Disney to attend the event which included tickets, accomodations and meals at a discount to our family.

TOP 5 Words/Phrases I Cannot Say Around The Teens

Here is the list of top 5 words that I cannot use around the kids without ticking them off, which means I use them all the time.  They are teens, and I am required by law to get on their nerves…

megaroll.jpg TOP 5 Words/Phrases I Cannot Say Around The Teens

TOTES: Abbreviation for Totally, and something you hurl out there in the middle of a conversation to throw them off.  Trust me they will TOTES forget what they are talking about.

Awesomesauce: Another word for Awesome and guarantees eye rolls in a ripple effect.

Gag Me With A Chainsaw: Or any 80′s reference.  They can’t stand the thought that you were once cool.

OMG, LOL, KWIM? Make sure you throw out some IM lingo…and you can make it a word or say the letters. Both work wonders.  QCTM which is Quietly Chuckling To Myself, is not quite LOL’ING so can you imagine how much that ticks them off?

Whatevs, Obvy…using more of their language really throws them into a tizzy.  Oh sure, throw tizzy in there!  They probably hate that too!

When you see me at Disney Social Media Moms Conference and we start a convo (conversations, duh), feel free to throw as many of these in there as you want!  Let’s make it count!
