FAB Deal !!! Have you heard of the daily deal sites?

Organic Fred Monkey you can get for FREE at Gilt Groupe!

Daily deal sites are the newest thing on the web offering a new "boutique" or "event" every day or every few days. They feature products from well-known designers as well as up-and-coming designers at steep discount prices, often 60-90% off.

These daily deal sites will often offer a merchandise credit just for joining. They also often have coupon codes available to score even more of a discount. I personally have gotten free or practically free merchandise recently! My favorite 'daily deal' score is a new pair of Reebok gym shoes for my husband.... $7.95 including shipping. Don't be scared of all the high-priced merchandise, these sites usually offer a good mix of prices - you may just have to wait for another "boutique" to open to spend your credit and get a great deal on something you want or need!

**Gilt Groupe is a new site to me and they are offering a $20 credit just for joining. Click HERE ~you must sign up through this link to get your free credit~ and start shopping. Looks like the $20 credit will expire on 12/10 so that should give us enough time to find something great. Here are some examples:

Original Penguin Boys Kids Tee $14 + $7.95 shipping = $21.95 - $20 credit = $1.95!
Creative Toy Shop Cardboard Toys starting at $13 + $7.95 shipping = $20.95 - $20 credit = .95!
miYim Organic Toys and Gifts starting at $9 + $7.95 shipping = $16.95 - $20 credit = FREE!

Endo Review and Giveaway!

We're so excited to introduce you to Endo ! Endo is here for all your outdoor t-shirt needs with incredible graphic designs to wear. Cyclist? Camper? They're here for us all. Seriously, what's better than a bright yellow tee with a huge tricycle on it? Yes, a huge yellow real tricycle would be nice but hey, you couldn't wear that and it would undoubtedly be much harder to come by! We were happy to discover that the Endo t-shirt is longer than some which is definitely a bonus. You know, no risk of the bad "low rise jeans - shorter tee - don't bend over or sit" dilemma. It's also pretty dang soft and comfy. In addition to this great t-shirt, Endo also sent their logo tote bag. These kind of backpack tote bags, or "man bags" as all the local teens call them (because all the boys in junior high have them!) are perfect for a light backpack to carry a water bottle, camera, cell phone, snacks, etc., for an impromptu hike, nature walk ...

Sunshine and a Wasp Tale

Where is the sunshine? The other day it came out for almost the entire day and it was glorious! Did you see it at your house too? I miss the sunshine. Kind of like I miss that little girl in the scrapbook page (who is now 16!). Now that my kids are grown or almost grown I also miss those kid experiences. Playing outside with no real purpose, the sweet little voices, the unconditional hugs. When they were little, my kids loved to play in the yard and at the park. Personally, I have a love/hate relationship with the park and backyard swing sets . Many years ago we had one of those big sturdy wooden swing sets that had a fort look-out, swings and a slide. It was painted with a lovely dark green enamel paint and occupied its own sand lot on the side of the house. Unfortunately, the local wasps also thought the swing set was lovely. They built their little nests in every corner of that thing. One day my youngest was out in...
