If you’re struggling to find time to take your furry friend for a walk, dog walkers are available to assist you. Dog walkers typically go to your home, pick up the dog, take them for a walk, and return them. Some will even go the extra mile by feeding your dog, giving medications, and more. LAWN CARE It seems like we need to get outside and mow our lawns every weekend when summer rolls around. Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone else do it for you? Most lawn care services use better equipment than what you have at home and can leave your lawn looking fresh in minimal time. Some lawn care companies even offer to plow your driveway during winter.

Thankfully, many grocery chains have started offering delivery and curbside pickup. You place your grocery order on your phone and schedule a time to pick up your groceries or have them delivered. It’s as easy as can be and will save you plenty of time. HOUSE CLEANERS You have a lot to keep up with around the house.

They will make your home look spotless, leaving you wondering why you didn't hire them sooner. Try 4 Other Services to Save Time ENJOYING OUR PICK-UP AND DELIVERY SERVICES?

Many have heard about using a stovetop potpourri to simmer

oranges, apples, and cinnamon to make your home smell like Christmas. But you can also fill your home with fresh scents that remind you of spring. The best part is that you probably have most of the ingredients you need at home or in your garden!

BUT FIRST, WHAT IS POTPOURRI? Potpourri combines fruits, spices, herbs, and other edible ingredients to make rich scents that spread throughout your home. It’s one of the most natural and cheapest ways to freshen the air you breathe. Here are three stovetop potpourris to make your home smell like springtime. Lemon, Rosemary, and Vanilla Making this sweet-smelling scent is easy! Just add 2 sliced lemons, a handful of fresh rosemary, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract to a large pot filled with water. Bring the mixture to a simmer and enjoy the fresh and clean scent! Lime, Mint, Ginger, and Thyme Add 3 sliced limes, a handful of fresh mint and thyme, and finely sliced ginger to a pot for this mixture. When the ingredients come to a simmer, you’ll immediately smell a citrus-mint aroma that will spread throughout your home. Lemon, Cinnamon, Mint, and Thyme This mixture is perfect if you want to add a hint of spice and warmth to your fresh spring scent. Combine 2 sliced lemons, a handful of fresh mint and thyme, and 2 cinnamon sticks in a pot before bringing the water to a simmer. One of the best things about potpourri is that the mixture will last a couple of days. Once you turn off your stove and drain the water, you can keep the ingredients in the pot and reuse them. All you have to do is add more water and bring it to a simmer again. Alternatively, you can prep your ingredients in advance, store them in an airtight container like a mason jar, and refrigerate them until you’re ready to use them.

So, fill your home with sweet fragrances to usher in a joyous spring!
