Disclosure: I am Peanuts Ambassador.  I received products to facilitate my review but my opinions are 100% my own! As I mentioned last month, I'm a Peanuts Ambassador and as part of this program, we get to interview people involved with the Peanuts series.  Last month we interviewed Jill Schultz and this month was Sally Dryer the voice of Violet in A Charlie Brown Christmas.. What was it like for you to to do this as your first job? Yes, my first job at age 8! It was unknown at that point, an experiment. Lee Mendelson had approached Charles Schulz for years to do an animated special, and Schulz always said no. Finally, he said, “I’ll do it, but it has to be real kids’ voices.” For me, it...

This post is Sponsored by P&G but my opinions are 100% my own! You may have noticed in stores that P&G has re-entered the Adult Incontinence category with the Always brand and is now offering  Always Discreet. I will admit, this is a product that as I get older, I'm realizing I need.  After having two babies and two c-sections, things don't work as they should.  Always is a name I grew up with because they came out around the same time I started needed them.  It's a name I trust and I'm excited to have another product I can count on. Always aren't just for "that time of the month" anymore! Unfortunately, 1 in 3 women ages 18-75 has a sensitive bladder, but only 1 in 9 use the...
