In my last post I admitted that I was behind on my fall cleaning. I’m putting in some domestic over-time to catch up and I’m seeing and smelling the results of my labor.  I fell in love with Mrs. Meyer’s Sweet Basil multi-purpose cleanser a month or so ago when I became an ambassador for ePantry and started using their green cleaning products.  As an ambassador, I am happy to share a great offer on Mrs. Meyer’s Seasonal Scents with you today so you can get your home holiday ready as well.

This post contains my ambassador affiliate link and I may receive a small commission should you make a purchase using it. However, I only share products and brands I feel are of benefit to you.  

The holidays are the most wonderful time of year for almost everyone I know. I love all the hustle and bustle, the planning, the warmth of an adorned home, the meals, but the cleaning? It’s a necessity that we all must tackle, so why not make your home sparkle with one or more of Mrs. Meyer’s Seasonal Scents line? This year they are available in Cranberry, Orange Clove and Iowa Pine. 

I have to admit it was hard for me to give up my Sweet Basil, but once I smelled the Cranberry- I have been using it every chance I get! I could use either scent as an air freshener they smell so good! My family always compliments the scent of our home each time I use a Mrs. Meyer’s product and they love to use the cranberry hand soap I put in the family bath as well.

Here we are, just three short weeks away from Thanksgiving and I haven’t finished half my fall cleaning chores found on my checklists here and here.  Being a homemaker at heart, it’s tough for me to admit my home isn’t in “company ready” condition and I could share with you a handful of excuses, but instead- I’m going to swing into action and share my Holiday Hostess cleaning checklist that will help you and I be ready to greet family and friends in no time.



My WAHM Plan: Welcome Holiday Guests


We all know that feeling- the dull ache in the back of your head, the itchy nose, and the tickle in your throat. I woke up to all those on Sunday morning, but refused to name it. By Tuesday, I was waving the white flag and admitting I had a cold. I have zero energy and appetite by this time, but thankfully, I had received a complimentary bundle of Greens Plus superfood powders and energy bars to try and I am really thankful I did!


#GreensPlus superfood products #healthy #nutrition

Greens Plus products are non-gmo, gluten, soy, dairy free and  have been helping people live healthier happier lives since 1989. Since my cold was making me feel anything but healthy or happy, I decided to give their energy bar and Advanced Multi wild berry superfood powder a try. 

Why try something new while suffering with a cold? Because Greens Plus has incorporated into their proprietary blend so many nutritionals that target the total body organs and cells. Literally, it is hard to find a competitor who would do the same and I needed to give my body some much needed nutritional help pronto!

#GreenPlus plusbar for energy

Greens Plus bars are thick and dense and quite tasty. Even with a cold. I really loved the dark chocolate energy plusbar with dates, almond butter and superfood greens.  Greens Plus says the food from Greens Plus when consumed delivers quick satiety results by feeding the body on the cellular levels and delivering the so needed energy to do what we need on the daily basis and I completely agree. After eating just one bar, I felt full and had a bit more energy.

#GreensPlus Advanced Multi Wild berry superfood powder

You know how hard it is to stay hydrated when you are battling a cold, so later in the evening; I decided to give their Advanced Multi Wild Berry superfood powder a try. I wanted to really taste this blend, so I’d know what type of smoothie it would work best in, so I mixed it in water, shook it up in the handy Greens Plus shaker cup and said bottoms up!

Trust me, it tastes a lot better than this color makes you think it would. I was able to drink almost the whole 8 ounces in record time, so I know adding it to a smoothie, or blending it into a favored juice will be an easy way for me to add superfood goodness to snacks and drinks in the future.

Thanks to lots of rest and the healthy boost I’m getting from Green Plus products, I’m feeling much better today and hope to have this cold gone by tomorrow.


From our home to yours we wish you a very happy, safe, healthy Halloween!

When Love, Hallmark sent out an email to their blogger group asking if we’d like to work on this campaign, I practically begged them to pick me to review and host a giveaway. Thankfully, my “enthusiastic” email was rewarded and I am honored to present the Hallmark 2015 Keepsake ornament giveaway for the flying Ace! While I did receive this ornament free of charge to thank me for my time, my love of all things Peanuts, and most especially Snoopy,  are 100% my own. 

Hallmark Keepsake ornament The Flying Ace MWP giveaway


My family and I aren’t alone in our love of the Peanuts gang.  Young and old alike love all things Peanuts- but when Snoopy becomes The Flying Ace, something magical happens. That magical essence has been lovingly captured in this Hallmark keepsake ornament. 


2015 Hallmark Keepsake Ornament the Flying Ace #giveaway MWP


Jim Kemme, the Hallmark Keepsake artist who worked on this piece missed no detail. The grimace on the Flying Ace’s face, the perfect shade of red on the plane, the goggles and cap, all work brilliantly to help us root on the Flying Ace as he races to save the day! When duty and adventure calls, he’s up, up and away!  You can learn more about the artist and the ornament by visiting Hallmark here

Hallmark Keepsake Believe in Magic MWP giveaway


This ornament has an extra element of cool because with the push the button you will hear the Flying Ace sound off!  The batteries are included when you purchase or win it- but be warned, getting the batteries in is tricky! You’ll need a small screwdriver to open the back and a bit of patience as you jockey both button batteries into place. Dexterity will prevail and you’ll hear the Flying Ace take off in no time!

Wordless Wednesday: Inviting nature in our home

Acorns, leaves, berries found on our nature walks are displayed on a depression glass pie plate and small vase- making inviting nature into our home a breeze.

With two weeks to go until Halloween arrives, Americans coast to coast are gearing up for this fun filled night in a big way. At our house, we still need to carve our pumpkins and find a few more accessories for our costumes, but we will be ready to celebrate in style! Yes, we do have to drive to celebrate now that we live in a rural area, but there is fun to be found in neighborhoods all around us.  As a matter of fact, Nashville, TN. made the list for top 20 cities for trick-or-treaters compiled by Zillow. 

Top 10 best cities for trick-or-treating 2015

This map shows the top 10 cities. Zillow says they picked areas with the greatest share of their residents are under 15 and the houses are closest together. That would help explain why San Francisco tops their list for the 5th year in a row! 


Top 20 cities for trick-or-treaters 2015

Another way these cities made the cut was by giving out the most candy to all those cute goblins! Speaking of candy, do you know that the average kids gets at least 50 pieces of candy on Halloween? Some kids have reported getting more than 100 pieces! I know we gave out and received a huge amount of candy each year we lived in suburbia, maybe that helped Nashville, TN. make the top 20 list! 


How did your city do? Are there any surprises on the list? I was delighted to see Milwaukee on the list. Can you imagine all those brave parents and kids bundling up against the cold to go trick-or-treating? Way to go! Please stop by Zillow to read all the fun facts on how they came up with their top 20 list and see the in depth neighborhood breakdowns. 


Happy Halloween 2015


From our home to yours, we wish you a happy, safe, and fun Halloween!
