Dawn and Cascade are drafting the “First Lady of New England,” Ann Michael Maye, to help fans enjoy all the messy meals, game day spreads, and holiday cooking, without dreading the cleanup that follows.
As the NFL season and holiday gatherings collide, home gatherings are at an all-time high, and so is the stress at the sink. Data shows that:
- 74% of Americans enjoy watching football at home, while 11% prefer to watch at a friend’s home.*
- 47% of Americans admit that the part they dread most about hosting holiday meals is the staggering mountain of dirty dishes. **
To help fans stay focused on touchdowns rather than dirty dishes, Dawn and Cascade are helping take dish dread off the menu, giving fans a cleanup team they can count on, so they don’t miss a minute of the action.
Ann Michael Maye Keeps Messes on The Sidelines with Dawn and Cascade
As an avid baker and wife of the New England Patriots quarterback, Ann Michael Maye knows that some of the best moments of football and the holiday season happen around food. She’ll give fans a peek inside her game-day traditions, home-field hosting strategies, and holiday baking rituals, sharing tips and tricks that help her stay present for it all.
“This is one of my favorite times of year because there are so many reasons to bring everyone together, but from making our favorite pre-game peanut butter energy balls to baking my grandma’s holiday pumpkin bread and trying new recipes, our kitchen gets hit hard,” shares Ann Michael Maye. “I love hosting a full house, but I definitely don’t love the cleanup that comes with it. I put everything I can straight into the dishwasher with Cascade Platinum Plus and rely on Dawn Powerwash for the greasy, sticky hard-to-reach messes like my mixer. They’re two products I know I can count on to get the job done, so I can spend less time worrying about dishes and more time enjoying the food and cheering on the Patriots with family and friends.”
