Gorton's Skillet Crisp Tilapia is FANTASTIC! We are avid hunters and Fish as much as we can here in Ohio. This not only means to get our fill of trout, bass and Catfish at our local club pond but to do lots of trolling for our favorite: Lake Erie Walleye! The two years since we sold our boat we have not had any Walleye filling our freezer like in the past and since then we have not had much in the way of our usual fish frys and occassional fish dinners. That being said, I was eager but skeptical about trying Gortons Skillet Crisp Tiliapia, but I can't argue with a free sample.

I went to our local Giant Eagle and got the Garlic & Herb seasoned fillets (which were on sale as well). I did not cook these right away as it was not added into my monthly meal schedule at the time but on one particular day when I was feeling a little under the weather, my husband decided to give it a whirl. In reading the instructions I was surprised when he said that it didn't require any oil or anything to coat a frying pan to cook these,so naturally I thought for sure they would be dry. He was pleasently surprised and happy to tell me that it was fantastic, tasty & moist!

Recently we finished the whole box in cooking the last 3 fillets with our Pirogie night and I too sampled some along with our 1 year old daughter. She gobbled the fish up and was asking for more, more, more. I managed to get a little bit of fillet from her to try myself and I do have to say Gortons has this nailed! Fantastic!

My husband has since told me that this is the best fish he has ever had, frozen from any store and wants me to buy more!
Our ONLY question is this: wonder if you could deep fry these fillets?!

Well after many many days of sampling Glade Expressions products we are happy to make them a permanant home within our house. We absolutely love the spray refill and plan to use this for the camper when we reopen it in spring after our long Ohio winter has come and gone. That is, If I can pry it away from my 14 year old daughter who LOVES it! The home decore, oil is something that has grown on me. At first I thought it resembled a Christmas time scent, however I now realize how much the scent resembles one of those hip teen mall stores like Hollister! I have become very attached to this scent and plan to purchase again! Glad to also report that these items have lasted the 30 days plus in a near century home with 3 dogs and 3 kids!
Thank You BzzReport and Glade!!!!!

Whatz the Bzz 'bout Glade Expressions?

 

Well I received a campaign invite to Glade Expressions which I thought "WOW does BzzReport know how much my house smells like my 3 dogs"?! lol! I was interested in trying this product because I personally rarely purchase any air freshener items unless I can get a real deal. Lets face it, in this economy it's hard enough to feed 5 people and 3 dogs in a household like mine for only $100 a week! So air freshener is a luxury. With this said, I was a little pressed to find this new product on local store shelves right away. I managed to find a SMALL selection at the next town over- Giant Eagle. There were only 2 varieties of the oil diffuser kits and 2 selections of the fragrance mist starter kits.
I purchased the Cotton & Italian Mandarin fragrance mist starter kit at the Painesville, Ohio Giant Eagle and on first impression of the "kit" it simply looks like a fancy spray can. I am not sure how it works as a refillable kit. Now I see how the bottom unscrews open and there is a canister (under pressure) inside which is the spray and because it is refillable with any scent, the label is easily removed if you wish. Nice. I can say the only small draw back is the screw open/close bottom. This will be a little difficult for people with arthritis as to screw it close (you have to get it just right to screw it back on). Now about the scent I purchased. I didn't use it right away. It was my daughter who was complaining about a "smell" in her room that initially wanted to use the fragrance mist. The next thing you know, she is spraying it all over the house and what a nice scent the Cotton & Italian Mandarin turned out to be! We both looked at each other and exclaimed it smelled "fresh" yet not overwhelming.

At the same time I had opened the Oil Diffuser starter kit in Lavender & Juniper Berry and quickly put it together. I placed it on my computer desk origionally but after my 17 year old son complained of how strong the smell of pine and wild flowers was, I moved it. I don't recomend placing it right where it will be in your face. It is a great item to fill a room slowly and the Lavender & Juniper Berry scent would be better suited for the holidays I think.

I love the cotton & italian mandarin so much that I plan to purchase refills as soon as I can but I personally don't plan to purchase a refil for the oil kit anytime soon. I am extra happy that I have these items as of this moment though. Not only for the dogs but we have grandma and grandpas recently purchased 5th wheel camper which we started to clean out. It has been in storage for years, thus finding it turned into a mouse habitat and smells quite musty. Will Glade help this? I plan to find out quickly! KIT.......
