The 2013-2014 school year is upon us.  How exciting it is to watch our children enjoy another year of learning and growing.  For college-bound and dorm-living students, this time is a transitionary period from childhood to adulthood.  Here are a few items to include in the college goody bag.
Here is the article from which I took the list.  The following items are all Made in the USA.

What items would you add to the list?  What items did you pack for your (or your child's) trip to college?  I would love to read your stories.

My Five-Minute Facial

I recently bumped into an old friend of mine.  My friend's name is Alba.  You may otherwise know this friend as Alba Facial Mask.  I say friend because no product has loved my face as much as Alba has.  Alba and I enjoy time together everyday.  I call it my five minute facial.  Whenever my five minutes are done, I rinse and admire.  I know that sounds vain, but sometimes we should take some time to admire our best work.  My face looks so refreshed and even-toned.  It's like having a facial without the immediate red blotchiness.  The mask does not dry on my face, so I can carry on a conversation and move as I normally would.  For a busy mommy like me, that's a definite plus.  Three-year olds and two-year olds don't stop asking questions because mommy is washing her face.  They do, however, offer fabulous compliments, like "Mommy, you look beautiful."  Ah, warms my heart. 

Let's see: a product that evens out my color, elicits compliments from my daughters, and it's Made in the USA.  What better boost than that in a little container?!  How can I not be friends with Alba?
