CINCINNATI, Oct. 8, 2009 /PRNewswire/ -- Now more than ever, moms have
multiple demands on their time. Starting in September, Cascade ActionPacs has
partnered with "How I Met Your Mother" actress Alyson Hannigan for a series of
tongue-in-cheek PSAs, which showcase how she balances her fully-loaded life as
a new mom and professional. The innovative program includes a Cascade
YouTube.com (www.youtube.com/cascade) channel that hosts the PSAs, outtakes
and behind the scenes footage of Alyson on-set, as well as helpful tips from
Cascade about how to maintain simple kitchen cleanliness. People can also

The PSAs provide a humorous, yet sympathetic look into motherhood that will
likely resonate with many moms. Alyson gives a funny but truthful glimpse into
her own busy routine and describes how Cascade helps her save time and energy
in the home. While her fully-loaded life may sometimes get out of control,
Cascade ActionPacs help Alyson tackle her fully-loaded dishwasher with ease.
With Cascade ActionPacs dishes get a thorough clean after just one wash cycle,
freeing up more time to spend with family and friends.

Alyson notes, "Between long days on set and play dates with my daughter, I
want household tasks to be simple and quick. With Cascade ActionPacs I don't
have to worry about my fully-loaded life. I can just toss the little pouch
into the dishwasher and know that my dishes will come out clean the first
time. Now I can enjoy more time with my family."

Packaged in a convenient 1" x 1" pre-measured pouch, Cascade ActionPacs are 4x
concentrated and packed with cleaning ingredients. All you have to do is place

advanced cleaning system gets dishes perfectly clean, even in the most
fully-loaded dishwashers, and give you extra time to spend with your family."
