As much as I love cool shades for summer, I haven't heard about Blenders Eyewear until I received a pair from Beachly. I tried them and instantly fell in love. The glasses fit so well and made me look so foxy that I decided to investigate the company and get more glasses from them

While summer can be brutally hot in some parts of the country, here is southern California, close to the beach, things are nice and breezy. So nice and breezy, in fact, that we have been enjoying some serious time outside with friends or just by ourselves almost every day.

There is no better time for Beachly subscription box to arrive than the beautiful June with the promise of a long barefooted and sandy summer. Sure, I love getting Beachly in the middle of winter and dreaming of the summer, but now it's the time for those dreams to come true.

It seems that it's been forever since I opened my last FabFitFun box in spring, because life is busy and finally beginning to look normal again after COVID restrictions are being lifted everywhere.

COVID is here to stay a while longer, but when you turn 18, you turn 18 and no virus can stop you. This is how we felt about our son becoming adult this past weekend - an occasion so special that had to be marked with at least a small circle of friends and family.

MEL Science is one of those subscription boxes that take a while to arrive. I usually get an email that the box got shipped and then it takes a month to actually get here, by which time I forget about it altogether, so it's always a pleasant surprise.

I recently realized that while all my family humans have plenty of personalized stuff, our dog Marlo is lacking in that department.

Causebox is always a welcome guest in my house. This time it arrived right before our long awaited European trip and a couple of items were very useful for traveling.
