by Karen Mendes | Fall, Giveaways, Product Review | 25 Comments

“I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Folgers. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for my participation.” I will be the first person to admit that I am not a morning person. My family knows this too. They don't like it but what can you do. We all have our best times of the day and our worst times of the day. My worst is first thing in the morning and my best is mid afternoon. The rest is all in between! Unfortunately, like most of you, I can't avoid the early mornings. While my commute to work isn't very long (my office is at home!), my kids go to school so I must be up and ready to help...

Grab some Ethically Sourced Coffees & Baked Goods at BJ’s Wholesale Club

by Karen Mendes | HOT Deals | 0 Comments

Ethically Sourced Coffees & Baked Goods I just love doing business with companies that care and BJ's Wholesale Club is one of those companies that really considers where their products come from. In many developing countries, farmers and workers are not receiving an equitable or fare wage for their goods. Through the Merchandising Environmental Stewardship Program, BJ’s ensures that in developing countries, farmers and producers are paid a fair wage for their goods. BJ's Wholesale Club took it a step further to specify that all sugar in their baked goods comes from Belize. Why get sugar from Belize? Sugar is Belize’s fourth largest export and about 10% of the total population is...

Healthy Halloween Tips

by Karen Mendes | Fall, Halloween | 0 Comments

My kids are SO Excited for Saturday. Our neighborhood is so much fun to trick or treat in. The streets are just full of families going from house to house just having a great time. My husband sits on the porch and hands out candy while I take the girls around the neighborhood collecting their goodies. It's usually cold so I bundle up with a warm cup of coffee while my kids fight me about putting warm clothes over or under their costumes. I am beginning to wonder if all the energy and excitement of the night warms them up and perhaps they aren't really as cold as I am! Of course they want to eat candy while we are trick or treating. Whether they are hungry or not, they would eat...

How Our Dog Max Found My Husband’s Cancer #PedigreeGives

by Karen Mendes | Dog Talk | 2 Comments

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #PedigreeGives #CollectiveBias My husband did all but beg me for a dog for years. I was in no way ready to take care of a third child, because to me that's what we'd be adding to the family. And since he worked outside of the house, and the girls are in school, I'd be the one taking care of it. I just didn't know if I wanted to do that. Then my youngest daughter went to school all day in first grade, and the house was very quiet. It was as quiet as I had wished for it to be for years, and it was too quiet. After a lot of thought and soul-searching, I finally sat down to talk to my...
