Save Something For You

9 Mar 2018 Family, Motherhood

This post is brought to you by Pepperidge Farm® Milano® cookies, but shares my own opinion.

I recently partnered with Pepperidge Farm Milano to celebrate us ladies taking some well deserved and god willing uninterrupted “me” time!!   Don’t you wish someone would put you in “time out”, forced quiet time alone, sounds good right!? Did you know the average mother only gets 17 minutes of  “me” time per day? When you think of it, totally makes sense. When we’re not in the actual act of mothering, we are picking up, trying to squeeze laundry in, replying to text messages, emails, scheduling sports, play dates, etc… I’m on a mission to change that for myself because frankly, it’s a down right necessity. On top of giving myself time to exercise, there’s also that component of basking in tiny luxuries. For me, that’s being ALONE, comfortable and enjoying something … enter Milano cookies!

The classic milk chocolate is obviously my favorite but they now come in so many different flavors! I’ve been rotating what I get so I can try them all.  You can check out all the latest flavors here.  I sometimes pair it with a glass of milk or wine depending on the day 🙂


So when you need a moment whether it be after a long day at work, a long day mommin’ or just a day, remember, save something for you!

‘tis the summer of “no” for me, which may so ‘tis the summer of “no” for me, which may sound odd, but let me explain… 

This is the summer of protecting my energy, keeping the good vibes close, and only saying yes to doing the things that truly bring us joy. I have found in the past that my patterns are typically to say yes to whatever may sound like a fun opportunity at the time, even if it’s months in advance. I’m sure you can guess what usually ends up happening, but when that day comes, I dread having made the plans! Most of the time, I would rather be home with my family, enjoying the beach, having quiet nights, etc… Now don’t get me wrong, I love a good time, but I have found the older I get, the simpler I like my life to be. I crave the freedom of not being on anyone else’s schedule, I don’t like being expected to be anywhere, I want my kids to just be free to play with their friends, and simply just enjoy the everyday moments.

My perfect summer looks like this… swimming in our pool, being at the beach with our friends and family, gardening, keeping up with my veggie garden, making yummy dinners, barbecuing, happy hour at the beach, taking walks, drinking coffee on the porch, reading books, watching movies as a family on the couch, playing tennis with my girlfriends … this is all heaven to me. We’re working pretty hard during the days with Marea, so when I’m not working, this is what I love to be doing.

How about you? Do you crave the simplicity? Or do you like having plans? Mix of both?
Now that Summer is officially here, we plan Now that Summer is officially here, we plan to do lots of outdoor entertaining. I loved creating this Summer Solstice tablescape using the most beautiful blue hydrangea, new seaglass melamine dinnerware set, vintage looking wine glasses and other accessories all from @JCPenney. Here’s to Summer Nights filled with laughter and the ones you love! #ShoppingIsBack #sponsored #AllAtJCP
