Can anyone else believe that October is already upon us? With the summer quickly changing to Fall, it seems like Manuel and I are busier than ever. Luckily we are still able to fit in weekly date nights! This week was our favorite of the month, we were able to try out the October Chef’s Table menu at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar in Des Moines! The Chef’s Table menu changes with the season and it is different at each of the Fleming’s locations. The Chef Partner works to create a menu that highlights the best features and local…
What to do in Winnipeg, Canada
Each year we take a longer trip over labor day. This year we couldn’t decide where to go. Manuel kept suggesting Winnipeg because it is the city of his favorite hockey team the Winnipeg Jets. However, I was hesitant. After doing a bit of research, I realized what a cool place Winnipeg seemed to be so I was in! Location: Winnipeg, Canada Where we stayed: Fort Garry Hotel When: September 1st – 6th Favorite Activity: Thermea Spa Would I go back: It was a great trip, but I don’t think I need to do it again. This trip was going to…

This year National Coffee Day is on September 29! Ever since I’ve become a Cameron’s Coffee partner, they’ve made cozying up at home with my favorite blend something that I continually look forward to.

In order to help you make the most of the day, I put together a few of my favorite ideas on how you can enjoy the day. National Coffee Day Activities: Invite someone over on National Coffee Day for…
Thermea Spa in Winnipeg

We originally decided to go to Winnipeg because Manuel’s favorite hockey team plays there and he has always wanted to visit. I was hesitant at first, until I discovered Thermea Spa and knew we had to go! Thermea is a Nordik Spa that features 4 outdoor baths, 4 distinct saunas, an exfoliation room, a restaurant and lounge and numerous indoor and outdoor rest areas. When we arrived at Thermea, we were checked in and were able to get into our swimsuits and robes. Then we…
How I Start My Morning with Cameron’s Coffee
It’s 6:00am and the dogs are starting to wake up and move around. We have a gradual alarm clock that fills the room slowly with light to help wake us up naturally. It is amazing and I love it! Once I am up, I immediately take the dogs outside. I am sure my neighbors think I am crazy walking the dogs in my pajamas but oh well! After we get back inside, I head straight for my Keurig. Brewing my favorite cup of Cameron’s Coffee is the best way to start my day off on a bright note. Right now,…
