All opinions are mine alone. #FastDrySaveTime What would you say if I told you that you could get some extra time in your day by using a particular fabric softener?  I go to bed at least 5 out of 7 days wishing for more time in the day.  I just need a few days a week where I could find a few more hours to get everything done.   Do you feel the same way?  I bet most of you do! My goal each week is to make a list of things I need to do - some of them very minor and some very specific - and cross off as many of them as early in the week as I can.  So then by the weekend, I can breathe. How many weeks do you think this...

  This post is Sponsored by Cross Country Cafe but my opinions are 100% my own! Green Mountain Fair Trade Autumn Harvest Blend K-Cups Review I'm a HUGE coffee drinker.  If I don't get my coffee first thing in the morning, then I'm not a happy camper.  And my husband has learned this along the way.  Before I had kids, I would seriously have a headache all day long if I didn't start off with my coffee.  I realize it was the lack of caffeine that gave me the headache, but coffee is my caffeine fix and I don't like to stray from it very often.  When I was pregnant I shifted to more decaf so the headaches eventually got better, but now I'm back to full cafe baby, first thing in the morning. I...

This post is Sponsored by Weight Watchers but my opinions are 100% my own! I'm so excited to share with you the new flavor of Weight Watchers Brownie Bliss™: Salted Caramel.   If you already enjoy Weight Watchers snacks and you like salted caramel, then you are going to love this According to a recent survey* from Weight Watchers Sweet Baked Goods, three out of four women surveyed said they would indulge in a sweet treat if it was under 100 calories.   I totally would and I like to have my sweet treat right before the kids come home from school.  I guess it sort of re-energizes me for the second half of the day.

This post is Sponsored by Krispy Creme but my opinions are 100% my own! I'm so excited to share with you that Krispy Kreme Coffee now comes in Single Serve!   Last year I visited the Krispy Kreme headquarters and while we were there, we did a really fun activity where we paired coffee with donuts.   They forced me (well not really forced!) to try the coffee black with no sugar and no cream so that I could fully experience the flavor of the coffee.  I didn't want to, but I did.  It changed the way I tasted and looked at coffee after that!  I also found that I really enjoy Krispy Creme coffee.  But we don't have any around here so I don't get it very often. Plus I use my Keurig to make...

This post is Sponsored by Colgate-Palmolive but my opinions are 100% my own! Did you ever think about what your hygienist was doing besides cleaning the plaque from your teeth?  I'm sure she polishes them at the end, right?  Do you know why she polishes them?  You may not because honestly I didn't know either until recently.  When the hygienist polishes your teeth at the end of your cleaning, she is buffing out any marks and smoothing out your enamel.   Why do this?  Because germs stick to your teeth when they are rough, and that breaks down your enamel. Pretty interesting, right? So what can you do in between cleanings? Polish Your Teeth So Germs Don't Stick with NEW Colgate Enamel Health...

This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Crest. My opinions are 100% my own! Do you have sensitive teeth?  I never did until earlier this year.  I had some dental work done and needed to get a bridge.  Once we started working on that, I ran into problems with sensitivity.  Most people would just start using sensitive toothpaste and call it a day.  But I refused to use them as I had tried in the past and just hadn't found one that I liked using.  I'm a bit of a snob with my toothpaste. I'm also a snob with my water and need it to be ice, ice cold when I drink it.  Load the ice cubes in please!  But when you have sensitive teeth, really cold drinks hurt.  And they hurt my teeth to a point of...
