For the longest time I have had a infatuation with how life was in the 40's. Years ago I watched a documentary about how life was when WWII started. It made me think just what did my Grandmother and Grandfather go through? At that time she would have had 4 or 5 children she was raising, how she had to save scraps and how to make sure there was a meal for the next day. I distinctively remember how she would save her pasta water and let it cool only to add it to her plants later. When your young you don't think little memories like that mean much but when your Grandparents are gone and you remember those little tid bits, it kinda makes sense why she would re purpose that water. She more than likely had to re purpose a lot of things. Oh how I miss those talks with my Nana. This is what I am my currently reading

Alliance for Period Supplies

This is a subject most men will turn their head away from but let's keep it real guys. Your lady has a period and if you are a father, your daughter will have one. What most don't realize is the need for period supplies. I can distinctly remember being in school and not having the supplies needed for a unexpected period. Back then our school counselor did not have supplies on hand like most schools do these days.  I took a pledge to help #endperiodpoverty by starting a conversation during Period Poverty Awareness Week May 25-31. Even after May 31, I will still honor my pledge and continue to spread this information. What can you do to help?

Moms Meet

Woohoo! Found this in my email tonight! I will post reviews here as well as on Moms Meet  (and if the product is available on Amazon I will post there as well) for products I have been selected to review. I cannot wait!  You can join as well, just apply. You can do Group Reviews, Influencer (share your review on social media), a Blogger Program and a Express Program (you will review items for yourself). You agree to review and share feedback, share photos and videos on the site itself.

Swagbucks

Many years ago I use to make web pages so I am a bit picky about how things should look or work on a page. Let us use Swagbucks as a example since my pet peeve is with this site in particular. I have been a member of Swagbucks for a long time, probably since they first launched to be honest with you. For those of you who don't know what Swagbucks is, you can complete surveys, answer daily poll questions, print coupons and be rewarded for shopping online. Your rewards can be exchanged for gift cards or PayPal. It is legit because I have redeemed my points for Amazon gift cards. Every now and then I will log in just to keep my account active and last week when doing so I noticed at the top of a page they now give you 2 SB (Swagbucks) per receipt you upload. I thought "interesting" since I already use 3 other receipt apps to earn gift cards. This apparently is not something new as I had thought but rather (according to their blog) is something they launched in 2019. ...
