Great tip from The Cottage House…Fill a bottle with water and stick in the pot of your potted plants while you’re on vacation!

Looks like Princess will be getting a doggie fountain for the hot Texas summer! Don’t get me wrong…she’s a house dog, but it will be fun for her to get a cool dri

nk of water while we’re sitting on the back deck…

Doggie Fountain, $43.94

How do you keep your dog cool in the summer?

I’ve really been trying to make a big effort to steer clear of chemical filled diet sodas and make better choices about the drinks I put in my body. In doing so, I’ve discovered something that I love!

La Croix sparkling water is delicious! I have to admit… I’ve only tried Berry and Grapefruit and I love Grapefruit so much, I can’t take a break from it to try something else! These little cans are full of calorie, sugar and sodium free bubbly fun!

I just checked out their website and found some interesting recipes that I can’t wait to try this summer when I need something cold and refreshing!

My other go-to is Glaceau Vitamin Water Zero. I haven’t found a flavor that I don’t love. They’re all so good and you can find them most anywhere !

Thank you, St. Croix and Glaceau for creating delicious healthy alternatives for our drinking pleasure! Chemicals, be gone!

If you’ve tried other flavors of St. Croix that you love, please let me know… I need to break out of my grapefruit rut!
