    Yes, you read that right, let’s explore bourbon country! It’s similar to how people explore wine country. They head to a vineyard, sip some wine, enjoy small bites and make a vacation out of it.

Breakfast in Bed? Yes, Please!

Bamboo Handle Tray

I don't get to spend very many mornings in bed past 5 am. So if I have the opportunity to have breakfast in bed I am all for it! Having this bamboo breakfast try makes it easier to get out of bed, make breakfast and then head back to bed to enjoy it. I'm still trying to convince Peyton to make me breakfast but that is not working out so well. So until I can convince her I guess I'll have to make it myself. What's so great about this bamboo breakfast try is the side rails and handles. The ...

Bring Home the Ant-Man and the Wasp Today

Ant Man and the Wasp

Oh, the day has finally arrived! Ant-Man and the Wasp is available on Blu-Ray, DVD and digital!!! Before I took Peyton to see Ant-Man and the Wasp I made her wage the Marvel movies in order so she could get the full picture of what was going on. And let me tell you, it made things make a lot more sense watching one movie after another! Plus, we also got to see all the movies again and to see how they fit into each other is really quite amazing. Because they are several months or some even years ...

Start Your Day with a Trick or Treat!

Trick or Treat K Cups Java Factory Roasters

It's October! I'm sure you are all fully aware of that by now. But did you know October is one of my favorite months of the year? Well, it is! I love fall in Minnesota. It's crisp air with beautiful leaves on the trees and in the yards. It's the perfect time of year to play outside with your little ones until their cheeks are rosy and then come in inside and enjoy a warm beverage.  And there's also Halloween y'all! I love seeing all the little ones dressed up trick or treating their way through ...

Come and Get Your Pink Pumpkin!

Pink Pumpkin K Cups

It's back! It's that time of year. Fall is in the air! At least here in Minnesota, it feels like it.  The weather is cooler and the leaves are starting to turn. I have a feeling it's going to be an early winter. And the key indicator that fall is here, Pink Pumpkin is available! That's right, it only comes ones a year and they only make so many so be sure to grab a case or two or six of Pink Pumpkin K cups before the sellout. Because once they are gone you won't be able to order them again until ...

Can a Dealership Do an Oil Change?

Can the car dealership I bought my car at do my oil changes? Yes, yes it can! Most likely, the dealership you bought your vehicle at can do all your routine maintenance as well as repairs. Did you know they can even change your tires? They can. And they carry the tires that are suggested by the manufacturer for your vehicle. There are many benefits to seeing one service station for all your cars needs. I do it for my vehicle. Where I bought it, is where I get all my service work done. Did you ...

The Great Pumpkin Fest at Valley Fair

The Great Pumpkin Fest

Growing up in Minnesota meant spending summers at Valley Fair. We would usually go with school and then my dad would take us at least once during the summer. They were some of the best memories of my childhood. But I don't remember them being open in the fall back then. Now, they are! And there are two different events that take place - The Great Pumpkin Fest and Valley Scare. Peyton and I took in the Great Pumpkin Fest and are going to share what we thought. So, first off, it's fall people. ...
