Fruit Flies

So we have had a nasty time with fruit flies. It always seems to happen this time of year. For many years I have LOVED Terro! The product worked great and all went well. However, over the years they changed something, or it has become less effective!

Soooo, I decided to try something a little simpler! And something I've used in the past. And much cheaper. I took some cider vinegar and a little dish soap (any brand - Dawn, Joy, etc.)
I put that in a dish (no need to mix) and within an hour or so I had fruit flies!



I've since had to put them all over the house.  I (sadly) pitched the Terro one.)


I will add that "newer" vinegar is not as effective as vinegar you've had around for a little while, but both work. The nice thing about this is that after a day or so you can dispose of the fruit flies and vinegar and then add new vinegar and dish soap! They do tend to last for about two days and then you need to change out the vinegar/dish soap.

Case Keemun ~ Playing For More!

Playing For More shares the journey Case Keemun as he travels from a young man to the star football player he is now! And let me tell you what ~ his journey hasn’t always been easy. 

When looking at an NFL star, you’d think that things always went their way, especially on the football field. Case shares his ups and downs throughout life and his journey to where he is now. 

Disclaimer: I am a football mom. I do not understand the game as well as many and do not follow the NFL like some. However I did thoroughly enjoy Case’s book! What a gift to readers, both football fans and non football fans. As well as both young and old. 

I must also mention the huge influence Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) has had on Case and his family. What a delight to read about the impact of FCA. 


I was very encouraged reading Playing For More and would recommend. I was given a free copy of Playing For More for my honest review which I have given!
