Giveaway ~ Everyone needs a little Fairy in the kitchen


Remember back in MAY when I posted about PG house , well the dirty secret is out...


While Peter was cooking lunch we learnt all about secret cleaning business which we couldn't discuss till now.

I wouldn't mind a Peter in my kitchen either.
There were prawns in there somewhere.
We received a swag basket of samples to take home and I was very impressed. 
I freely admit I am not a domestic goddess. No white gloves allowed here.
I encourage the children to help :) as much as I can ...
It's been interfering with my social media life   a challenge having to keep the house clean every day and rush around every morning being an uber domestic goddess because the house is on the market (still).


Just don't lick the bubbles !
I doubt my readers are very much interested in hearing about cleaning ...since most of us do anything we can to avoid it.  Though we all love to make it easier.

I have been using  FAIRY for everything ...as well as cleaning dirty dishes, FAIRY cleans shower screens, sliding doors and anything really.
Excellent for wand polishing.

I still have my green Fairy - a little goes a long way (I believe the claim- lasts up to an incredible 50% longer than the next best selling brand!). I recently purchased Blue too (it's my favourite colour you know if you want to send me anything...just saying). 

Thanks to Fairy I’d love to offer you an Ultimate Dishwashing Pack that includes the following ...


1 x Fairy Dish Liquid – RRP $3.99


1 x Fairy Platinum dishwashing tablets – RRP $20.99 (these help clean dishwasher with each wash)

1 x Fairy All in One dishwashing tablets – RRP $20.99

1 x Tupperware lunch container – RRP $24.99 * (no picture yet sorry)

- Total Value: approx: $70.96

PS * Tupperware endorses Fairy as it's recommended cleaning product. Fairy even cleans oily, tomato stains with cold water ... they put it to the test right before our eyes. It rinsed clean in cold water with just a , squirt of Fairy - squish and shake.


That being said ... I still say one of my new blogging goals is to be able to afford a cleaner :) .
In the mean time I highly recommend visiting Katrina @ Organised housewife - she has all the tips and tricks for busy mums to get organised and whip up your cleaning regime.


To enter tell me your what is your least favourite cleaning job to tackle or a handy tip if you are a speed cleaning demon ?


Australian residents only.

I hate doing the dishes. I just hate them so much. I have tried my whole marriage to get my husband to do them, but it rarely happens. I long for a dishwasher!

I don't really have any tips other than don't let things pile up and cleanign with children around is like shovelling snow when its snowing. Pointless. :)

What cute pics!! :) He looks like he was enjoying being the cleaning fairy! Well, me...hmmm I definitely HATE doing the dishes, even though I do have a dishwasher. You see, I don't put everything in there, there are some that needs to be handwashed, like the kids melamine dishware, my plastic chopping board, the knives and drinking glasses. But I hate hate hate doing them. Now, I wished I had a cleaning fairy to help ME out too! :)

Now that's a photo you'll have to keep somewhere and bring it out at the big 21st birthday party! (I have a few like that of my son.)

I hate all kinds of cleaning but scrubbing the shower has to be the worst. I think I've bought every single advertised cleaner for showers - if they promise it will make my shower sparkle with no effort they've got me. Unfortunately, these things never seem to work like they do on the TV advertisement.

I think I need some Fairy and a cleaning fairy to go with it - my domestic capabilities fail me often. Is it wrong that myy best tip for being domestic is to encourage the kids (the little and the not-so-little) to play elsewhere. The less time they are in the house the less time they have to destroy everything in sight!

Great pics
I hate cleaning my oven. It has to be THE worst cleaing jon there is. I actually don't mind cleaning the rest of the house - but juggling full time work with mother hood and blogging makes it hard to get everything done each week. Great pics of your little Fairy trish.
My least favourite cleaning job is vacuuming. A little because I have neck arthritis so it's painful, but mostly because of the crappy, crappy old 70's carpet in the unit. Thank goodness I'm leaving it behind! There's no carpet in my new flat.
A cleaning tip? Put things away when finished with them and wipe over all surfaces daily. Sinks, doorknobs, windowsills, kitchen bin.
Or put low wattage globes in the light fittings so the dirt doesn't show....
I actually don't mind doing the dishes...I just hate putting them away...ugh !
Nice to have a little pink fairy in the kitchen to help out, though :)
My worst cleaning job - the oven!!!!
LOVE the photos! The Fairy dishwashing liquid is definitely impressive. It's nice to find a liquid that actually does what it's meant to! I don't like a lot of chores but the one I like least is cleaning the toilet. (Oh and don't include my comment as an entry, because I already got to try these :) )
Firstly, I have to say, those photos are just so adorably cheeky!! lol. Secondly, down to business...I absolutely HATE cleaning the shower screen. I just never get it clean and it bugs me every time I look at it!
Ok I admit it.... I actually DONT mind doing the dishes! I find standing at the sink with my hands in hot water on a cold winters night relaxing... especially if I do it at bed time.... get my drift... I do dishes, Daddy puts the kids to bed!! hello, win win situation here!!
So thats my tip, offer to do dishes, then you dont have to do the nappy changes, teeth brushing, toilet going routine of bedtime!
And I'm always finished before hubby!! So bonus me time!!!
I hate cleaning the high chair. There always seems to be wheetbix and cheese caked on the straps no matter how hard I try!
The shower is my nemesis. I also dislike cleaning the oven.
I've never even heard of this brand. Will have to keep my eyes open.

Can I list all cleaning chores???? I think though the shower would have to be the worst. Particularly with a hubby who has such a filthy job!

Love your little dishwashing fairy. So cute! LOL.
My least favourite cleaning job is definitely the toilet! It just feels so squeamishly foul to have to clean it haha!
LOL! What a cute pink fairy.

I hate the high chair too! Gross soggy food stuck in cracks and crevices. AND this one is better than our old one! *sigh*
I just love those photos! My pet cleaning hate is wiping hand prints off walls, we get so many on our walls from the kiddies I end up having to wash the whole of the walls. Drives me nuts, I want a wall paint that is impervious to hand prints :-)
Those pics are gorgeous! I hate cleaning the toilets, obviously. And I hate cleaning out the fridge. I am blessed to have a husband who does the 'heavy' cleaning, due to my health. He does floors, hangs out and brings in washing, does showers and basins and baths, walls and windows. He's amazing.
Such a cute fairy! I hate cleaning the bathroom. Yuck! Thankfully, hubby picks up my slack.
I really hate mopping the floor mostly because our house is all tiles bar the bedrooms and it takes so long, if i never had to clean anything again i would be in heaven!
what a gorgeous fairy!!!!!!

I hate cleaning the loo and washing windows.
