Every Friday night, my parents, my son, and I have a ritual of going out to eat. We’ve been doing this for a few years now and it’s great to not to have to worry about what’s for supper and having to actually prepare a meal. E.B. is very vocal about where he likes to eat and thinks it’s “lame” that we go to the same restaurant just about every Friday night. We do this simply because we love the place and it’s got something for everyone.
Well, E.B. whined all the way there because he wanted to go somewhere else. When he starts whining, I know he is tired. And this?
Further proof that he had a full day of first grade and was all tuckered out.
He raised up long enough to look at his food and promptly tilted his head back for another snooze.
My date. Always making me pay or just plain old falling asleep on me.
Fall is in the air, and Green Mountain Coffee has just the flavors from its Green Mountain Naturals line to welcome the crisp, cooler season. This month I was sent two fabulous, fall-inspired drinks to try out in my Keurig, and I just know you will want to sample these for yourself.
GREEN MOUNTAIN NATURALS
When I think of fall drinks, apple cider is right up there at the top of the list, and Green Mountain Naturals Hot Apple Cider is absolutely delicious. This drink contains no artificial colors or preservatives – just honest apple goodness with a hint of brown sugar and a touch of cinnamon.
Want a cooler drink instead? Green Mountain Naturals Lemonade is the first ever lemonade in a K-Cup pack, and I love the fact that I can have lemonade that tastes as great as fresh-squeezed made in my Keurig!

Happy Fall, Y’all!
I was sent the above products to facilitate my post as a Keurig/Green Mountain Coffee ambassador. All opinions are my own.
Let’s face it…when you have a little boy who comes home daily from school with lunch stains on his uniform shirts and a husband who drives a truck and often comes home with grease stained clothes, it’s a must that you have a dependable washer and dryer to help fight those stains and help keep those clothes looking fresh. This is my toughest laundry battle, and I am thrilled to report my new Maytag Bravos XL HE washer and dryer are living up to those expectations when it comes to making laundry time a breeze.
I have to wash my son’s uniform shirts in cold water because they are a dark color and I hate for them to fade. However, I often wondered with our old washer whether or not they were truly getting clean enough. I could never get those “clear” looking grease stains out of his shirts and it was frustrating because those shirts are not cheap. I am simply amazed at how clean his uniform shirts come out of the wash now and they look just as great as when I took the out of the package. The cold wash cycle on the Maytag Bravos XL gives you the performance of a warm wash cycle with the energy savings of cold water. The Bravos XL also uses 76% less water and 78% less energy making it an Energy Star qualified model.
Speaking of Energy Star, according to a survey they conducted, the average household washes 400 loads of laundry per year! That’s quite an impressive amount of laundry! I can honestly say I only have to wash clothes three times a week now with my new Maytag Bravos XL washer, as opposed to the 5 or 6 loads I did with my old washing machine. It has the ability to clean 21 towels in a single load! I don’t own 21 towels, but can you imagine what a time saver this washing machine could be for a large family? Look how deep this machine is!
Yes, I stuff as many towels as I possibly can into a load. I am also really, really guilty of letting clothes sit in the dryer overnight. With towels, this really isn’t an issue, but with our clothes, they just become a wrinkled mess. However, the steam cycle on the Bravos XL dryer is my new best friend. I simply set the dial to the steam cycle, push a button, and our clothes come out fresh and wrinkle-free! I don’t iron, so this is my absolute favorite part of the dryer!
As you can see, I really depend on our Maytag Bravos XL washer and dryer to keep our clothes looking great and save me time.
