Lindt it started with HELLO! #spon
September 23, 2014 • review, sponsored
Many thanks to Lindt HELLO for sponsoring today's discussion, and for giving my readers the opportunity to win sweet prizes!
OK, so it really started with the "wink" feature on match.com...but it didn't take too long for a hello to follow!
That was in late 2004....almost ten years ago! We lived in different states and had no idea what that "hello" would turn into. But, we all can see in this case, it resulted in something very sweet.
Know what else is sweet? Chocolate. C'mon, you knew that. You don't need me or anyone else to push the good stuff on you. Lindt chocolate is delicious, and they certainly don't need my help in spreading the word to you smart readers. But, just like Sean and I, Lindt knows that a sweet and beautiful relationship starts with "hello." in this case, say “hello” to the enticing flavors of the Lindt HELLO collection:
- Caramel Brownie: Discover the irresistible combination of smooth milk chocolate, hazelnut and caramel brownie filling
- Strawberry Cheesecake: Satisfy your cheesecake craving with rich milk chocolate and a light, fluffy strawberry cream cheese filling.
- Crunchy Nougat: Smooth milk chocolate,– now that’s yummy!
- Cookies & Cream: Chocolate, cookies – and a crunch! Savor a chocolaty experience like no other, with chocolate chip cookie pieces and cream filling.
I may or may not have a stash in my desk drawer... |
The fun thing is, you can enjoy this new chocolate from Lindt in any capacity from just a nibble to full on splurge - these 4 indulgent flavors come in bars, sticks, and minis!
Know what else? Lindt wants to give you some of this sweetness! They are offering five weeks of prizes including their sweet chocolate and a sweet way to connect with others (shopping spree, anyone?)
I love how the chocolate minis are small enough to enjoy at my desk (and share- every connection starts with hello!) |

I clearly don't need to keep talking here - eat some chocolate, enter to win, and when you do, remember that #itstartedwithhello!

The #Underawareness Movement
September 18, 2014 • sponsored
Many thanks to Depend for sponsoring today’s story and encouraging people to #dropyourpants for #underwareness.
While I'm fortunate enough to say I don't personally worry about bladder leakage, I know that many people do—especially women. We've all passed the display of Depend in a store aisle and smirked, but I think we all have also thought that one day we won't find it so funny when we are older and in need of some bladder leakage protection.
Worse yet, bladder leakage isn't just for the elderly. I was stunned when I researched the issue and discovered the following from the NIH:
- Many women leak urine when they exercise, laugh hard, cough, or sneeze.
- Often women leak urine when they are pregnant or after they have given birth.
- Women who have stopped having their periods—menopause—often report bladder control problems.
- Female athletes of all ages sometimes have urine leakage during strenuous sports activities.
Yep—we ladies of all ages can be victims of bladder leakage. Some of us likely already are. How embarrassing!
What is really cool about Depend is they aren't just cashing in on a need with their product—they actually want to do something about the problem: The #Underawareness movement.
Depend will donate $1, up to $3 million, over the next three years to charities that advance the research, education and awareness of bladder leakage for:
- Every pant drop, photo and video shared Using #Underwareness and #DropYourPants; and
- Every personal video made about what Underwareness means to you that is uploaded to YouTube and tagged #Underwareness and #DropYourPants"
I can certainly appreciate the sense of humor here. If you experience bladder leakage or know someone who does, know you're not alone! Participate in the fun and join the #underawareness movement - hopefully one day research can eliminate the problem of incontinence.
In the meantime, Depend has your back—Claim your free sample today by visiting the Depend landing page and clicking on the "Get a Sample" button located at the top right-hand side of the screen. Then, select which sample you would like to receive and wait for them to arrive!
Are you going to #DropYourPants now?
Let's Be Friends Blog Hop
September 16, 2014
A blog hop is a set time frame for current or aspiring bloggers to find new blogs and quality content. It is a great way to make new friends and find inspiration! It is also a fabulous way to promote your own blog and posts.
Dear Friends,
What a day to celebrate! This is the 83rd week of the Let's Be Friends blog hop! Thanks for joining us on this special day. Chelsee and Tiffany are extremely delighted to see the way this hop has grown and love to see your faces each week!
Join us every Tuesday at 7am (MST). This blog hop focuses on content. LINK UP YOUR FAVORITE POST from last week in this fun content-sharing blog hop! I love the idea of blog hopping, but I love the idea of reading posts and quality content on new blogs I've never been to even more. Instead of simply linking up your blog button, you are now able to link up your favorite post you recently wrote. Have a delicious recipe to share, DIY tutorial, or heartfelt post? Share it with us! All hosts and co-hosts put up some unique and fun content from the past week. Make sure to check them out. P.S.- you may still link up your blog button and blog name, but it is encouraged to link up your favorite post instead. You will get more page views and interest if you do so! Some of the most successful blog hops I have participate in focus on content rather than just exchanging follows. You never know who will become a loyal follower or pin that delicious new recipe you posted!
The BEST part of this blog hop? Each week there will be a WINNER! That's right, each week we will choose one lucky blog to feature from the previous week's hop. This hop receives thousands of page views every week, so your blog will have the chance to be center stage for free. You must follow all the hosts and co-hosts in order to win. Only those who link up a specific post are eligible to be featured! *You must follow all the hosts and co-hosts in order to win.
The last exciting change is that the co-host spots will now be available to all sponsors of The Dwelling Tree or Southern Beauty Guide. If you are interested in co-hosting the blog hop, email Tiffany or Chelsee about sponsorship opportunities and how to co-host the weekly hop!

Hi everyone! It's Chelsee here. Thank you all once again for continually linking up at our blog hop. It is such a fun time and I am so impressed each week with all the amazing posts. Please continue to link up an actual post instead of your blog. We want to keep reading your content and it makes it more fun to pick a winner!

Something that everyone in my life faces is how to say no. They feel the only way to be nice is to say yes, but sometimes that is not what you really need to say. I think this is a great how to guide that those of you who struggle with saying No will appreciate. Time I saw it I started sharing it with those who struggle with this! She's a twenty something christian lady that lives in Finland! She grew up in Thailand which can I say is amazing? She blogs about faith, life, interior design and much more!
Go say hi! I am Mrs K
Keep posting awesome content! You make it so fun for us to read all your posts! If you can, please link up a specific post. It makes it easier for us to come and visit!
*Remember YOU can be next weeks winner! :)
