This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Rambler's Way Farm. All opinions are 100% mine. When I think about a wool sweater, this is what comes to mind - will keep me warm but can get too hot, is a good layer in cold weather but can feel too heavy, and is a natural fiber but can feel itchy. Through Social Spark, I learned about a company that's changing the way people view wool. Rambler's Way was started by Tom and Kate Chappell, creators of the natural toothpaste Tom's of Maine. They have now turned their focus to producing lightweight, soft, 100% American made wool on an eco-friendly and sustainable farm. The Rambouillet sheep that they raise produce an ultrafine wool that is lightweight enough to be worn all year round. And most amazingly, Rambler's Way wool garments can be MACHINE WASHED.

Let’s talk about swimsuits
Hang on a second while I finish shuddering in horror at the thought of trying on a bathing suit in a store dressing room...*shudder*...okay, I'm good. People, Swimsuit season is upon us. Soon our children will be begging us to take them to community pools, lakes, beaches, oceans, and we will look down at their smiling faces, drop our Krispy Kreme donuts, and trudge off despairingly to the swimwear section of our local department store. I've got a website I want to tell you about that sells swimsuits in sizes 8 and up, so consider this your heads-up of WHAT KIND OF POST THIS IS. If you read through the end you'll find an announcement about a very cool swimwear-related giveaway coming up, too :) You might also have catalogs arriving in the mail with covers showing long-legged Amazon women wearing scraps of cloth held together with dental floss, and find yourself muttering a few choice grown-up words before you toss the catalog in the recycling pile. It's okay, we all … [Read more...]
