I had a package from Product of the Year waiting for me when I got back from Chicago, and I was so excited to tear it open and see this year’s winners! Once again, the assortment is fantastic. From awesome hair products to great cleaning items, I’ve been using these all week and am hard pressed to choose just one favorite. Is it the Kleenex that I used up pretty much instantly, thanks to a winter cold bug? The Gold Emblem nuts that we ate the same day I opened the box? The hairspray and leave-in hair repair that have been keeping my locks looking great? The laundry and dish soap that have been cleaning my clothes and plates? Well, guess what, I don’t have to choose because they are ALL winners!
