Werther’s Original Unwrap the Magic Sweepstakes

I received free product and a gift card in exchange for this post, but all opinions are my own. This post may contain affiliate links.

When I was offered the chance to share about Werther’s Original, I must say I did a little happy dance at the computer. I have always loved Werther’s Original hard candies and was eager to try out their other products.

Oh, so you noticed the title of this post has the word sweepstakes in it? Well, that’s because you can enter the Unwrap the Magic Sweepstakes for a chance to win the Grand Prize: the winner and up to three guests will embark on a grand culinary adventure into a food and wine lover’s paradise at the 2015 Epcot® International Food & Wine Festival.

10 Tips For a Smarter Home

Thanks to Direct Energy for sponsoring today's discussion.

If you’re like us, you’re always looking for ways to save a little money. Take a look at your electric bill and see what you can do make it a little easier on the wallet.

I’m a stay at home mom now, which means my television is on most of the day (not that we’re always watching it), the computer is usually on, and during the summer/winter the AC/heat is on. When I was working, there were days that no one was home for over 10 hours. During that time, we were able to change our thermostat up/down to account for no one needing it. Since this is not the case anymore, we’re working on other ways to make our home smarter.

One thing we’ve really been trying to do is use more natural light during the day. We have a big window in our living room and with our new blinds, we get more light through the window than we would if the light was on. Remembering to turn the lights off is hard for anyone. If we don’t turn them on- we don’t forget.

Another way we conserve energy is by using our ceiling fan instead of turning on the AC as soon as it gets a bit too warm. The same concept applies to using blankets to keep warm.

Purex No Sort for Colors

The Purex brand provided me with a sample in exchange for a product review. All opinions expressed are my own.

As a busy mom, I want laundry to be as quick and painless as possible. When you’re tired, you just want to toss clothes into the washer and be done with it. Purex No Sort for Colors detergent has changed the rules on sorting laundry!

With regular detergent, dyes can bleed onto other fabrics in wash. With Purex No Sort for Colors, the detergent traps loose dyes and reduces color bleeding accidents.

So get your BFFs together for a night out on the town, courtesy of the laundry BFFs from Purex, and enter for your chance to win today!

Start Summer Early & Win a Family Vacation from Purex

Myrtle Beach has remained one of my favorite vacation spots. We went with my family when I was younger and now my husband and I take our own family.

When we visit Myrtle Beach this year, we’ll be visiting the Ripley’s Aquarium. When we went in 2012, Charlie was too young to enjoy it, but this year- he’ll be 3.5 when we go. There’s definitely something for everyone in Myrtle Beach.

This is my husband and Charlie in 2012. I can’t believe this year there will be two of them running (or tottering) on that beach.
