<p>Notice something a little different here today? (if you are reading via email or reader, you may want to click over)</p>
<p>Lauren at <a title="Restored 316" href="http://www.restored316designs.com/" target="_blank">Restored 316 Designs</a> and I have been working hard on <strong>a fresh new space for TidyMom.net!</strong> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.restored316designs.com/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-18385" title="restored 316 design" src="http://tidymom.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/restored-316-designs.jpg" alt="restored 316 design" width="532" height="525" /></a></p>
<p>Let me tell you, Lauren is a real trooper! lol she put up with all of my indecision (about the only decision I could make for a long time was what I didn&#8217;t like) she <strong>helped me take my vision and make it a reality</strong> without losing the feel of the TidyMom brand.</p>
<p>Lauren was patient and never anything but kind!  She has a great system for keeping you informed on what is going on with your design, contact was excellent and we even chatted over the phone several times to make sure we were both clear on everything.</p>
<p>For the most part, many things are still in the same place, just look a little different.  But take a look around, we are still tweaking a few little things, but please let me know if you see something that doesn&#8217;t look right!</p>

<p>The sunshine and warm temperatures is a time for lounging on the deck, camping, swimming and backyard parties. It&#8217;s also the time of year to rid the outdoors of all the winter grime and get it ready to enjoy.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18276" title="Get Outdoors ready for Summer" src="http://tidymom.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Get-Outdoors-ready-for-Summer.jpg" alt="Get Outdoors ready for Summer" width="550" height="366" /></p>

<p>We&#8217;ve talked in the past about how much <a href="http://share.theblogfrog.com/nf/40-O-BB?bfak=TidyM-5N&amp;bf_url=http%3a%2f%2ftidymom.net%2ftag%2fbaking-soda%2f" target="_blank"><strong>ARM &amp; HAMMER® Baking Soda</strong> can help inside the house</a>, but did you know that it has<strong> dozens of outdoor uses</strong> that will lighten your workload and give you more time to do what matters most – having fun in the sun with family and friends.</p>
<h2>Brighten up your outdoors with these safe, simple, and affordable solutions:</h2>
<ul>

<p><span id="more-18274"></span></p>
<p>Our <a href="http://www.weber.com/home" target="_blank">Weber gas grill</a> get&#8217;s lots of use all year long, and sadly, it rarely gets cleaned. So, I plan on giving it a good scrub down using <strong>ARM &amp; HAMMER® Baking Soda</strong> and water and I&#8217;ll fill you in later next week on how it turned out.</p>
<p>The maker of ARM &amp; HAMMER® products challenged me to switch to ARM &amp; HAMMER Baking Soda and this summer, they are giving away $12,000 in the ARM &amp; HAMMER Switch &amp; Save Challenge Sweepstakes. To be entered to win one (1) of twelve (12) $1,000 prizes, simply reply to the question below!</p>
