Lovable Labels
I was recently contacted to see if I was interested in trying out some customized labels from Lovable Labels. Here’s where I confess that - like so many people - I am a huge office supply fan. Shopping for back to school supplies fills me with happiness and I can browse notebooks, pens, and agendas for a ridiculous amount of time. Because of that, I was more than just a little curious about checking out some labels for my daughter’s return to school.
The labels come in a variety of colors; I chose to test drive the Mixed Berry which included shades of pink, purple, and red. Not only do you get to specify your child’s name on the labels, you can also choose an icon to go on them with choices ranging from a maple leaf to a teddy bear to a soccer ball and much more. I asked my daughter to take a look and choose the one she wanted and she immediately picked the cute dinosaur.
We were ordering the Back to School Mega Pack which includes binder stickers, clothing dots for identifying shirts and shorts (handy for gym clothes, and the labels are waterproof to stand up to your washing machine), shoe stickers with protective plastic, labels for tupperware that can hold strong in the microwave and dishwasher, and a couple of “dog tags” that you can attach to lunch bags and school bags (I make sure ours are always on the inside for safety).
After placing my order, it took about a week for the labels to arrive and I wasn’t disappointed at all. The labels are cute, printed with vivid colors, and the name is easy to read. After we purchased everything on our back-to-school list, I sat and attached all the labels; they stick easily and hold well. I tried to pull one off to see if they would come loose with a bit of wear and tear and they didn’t budge so I’m confident they’ll stick to all our surfaces for the whole school year.
My daughter was thrilled too and liked having a personalized label with her dinosaur icon to identify all of her belongings. She told me that she showed them to all her friends when she got to class - word of mouth at its finest!

I was approached recently with an offer to sample Colgate’s new toothpaste, Colgate Max White, which promises to help brighten your smile quickly and affordably. As much as I would like to deny it, I don’t exactly have the best teeth in the world and my smile certainly wouldn’t blind anyone. The thing is, the cost of a professional whitening is miles out of my budget. Even the little home kits are fairly pricey.
No matter how clean my girls are at the beginning of the day, it never fails that Hayley will come home with some juice on her tunic and Breanna will spill something on her shirt.
It’s kind of ironic that I find myself reviewing the book Sleep is for the Weak on a day that I can barely keep my eyes open. I’m not weak, dammit! I don’t need no stinkin’ sleep!
Now my tub is much more of the sparkling nature. I still can’t say that I find myself jumping for joy when it’s time to clean the tub, but when I do have to do it it’s much easier, thanks to the Scrubbing Bubbles Action Scrubber. Mother Talk asked if I’d be interested in doing a review of the cleaner, and after I glanced woefully at my dull tub, I said yes, because I figured it was worth a shot.
