One thing we try to do every Spring ( though it hasn’t been EVERY spring, since I’ve been here) is to visit the Wooden Shoe Tulip farm. We went out during the week and it wasn’t that busy. The weather was absolutely beautiful, not a cloud in the sky. I was pleased that there was plenty of color in the fields still so late in the season too. We had planned on visiting sooner but things came up.

I can hardly believe that in one more week, we’ll be saying good bye to winter and hello to Spring. I don’t know about you but me and the kids are certainly excited to see some sunshine again and feel some warmer temperatures! And not but shortly after Easter will be here. My kids are already super excited about egg hunts , gardening, and much more!

Speaking of the Spring time and Easter, I’m pleased to share that Scholastic Storybook Treasures – The Springtime Collection Featuring Max’s Chocolate Chicken is going to be released on March 26th! This is only a few days after the start of Spring and couple of days before Easter. This collection in my opinion would be a great Easter basket addition or a general suprise DVD gift for the kids in honor of Spring!

On this collection, there are 13 Award-Winning Stories on 3 DVDs. Which include my children’s favorite Max’s Chocolate Chicken! In this story Max and Ruby are on an exciting Easter egg hunt to gather the most in hopes to receive a prized chocolate chicken! Other well loved stories included Chicken Little and The Red Hen!

I’ve always got my eye out for exceptionally stylish, feminine, modest, and affordable apparel and recently I came across a wonderful clothing retailer called Fresh Produce that met all my expectations, wants, and likes when it came to clothing and accessories!

Fresh Produce clothing features so many wonderful styles in tops, cardigans, skirts, pants, dresses, and many more offerings. Their styles are refreshing and the colors and prints used are very pleasing to the eye. I liked that there is a large selection of prints as well as solids featuring sizes ranging from extra small to extra large. The color selection and the numerous types of clothing make it easy to mix and match stretching your dime in taking a few items here and there and creating a night out look from something that could also be casual day wear.

I was given the opportunity to review the Impromptu Dress in Fiji. Picking a dress from the numerous styles available was really hard because I was partial to quite a few of the styles and cuts which include knee length, below the knee, maxi, and cover ups. Another thing I had to consider was a what solid color or colored print I would choose. I really liked the variety and decided to go out on a whim and brighten up my current wardrobe with a lovely shade of Melon. And honestly I was crossing my fingers on that color choice and was quite surprised with how flattering it was to me not just the color shade but the fit of the dress to my figure too.

Since falling in love with the Fiji Impromptu Dress, with it’s asymmetrical hem, ruching and smocking details, I’m already deciding which other styles from Fresh Produce I’d love to add to my wardrobe. This dress is made in the USA and the quality is impeccable and I’m sure it will last for quite a while. I also get really excited when a dress is true to size knowing that I’ll probably have no issues picking another out and wondering if it’ll fit. Wearing this dress reminds me of a warm day at the beach and it’s perfect for the Spring and Summer season.

I highly recommend Fresh Produce’s clothing line and wanted to point out that right now they are offering a coupon code “LOVEMOM” that if you purchase one dress, you’ll get the second one 50% off. That’s a real steal with dresses starting as low as 30.00! You’ll find the clothing sold in Fresh Produce stores ’at more than 500 specialty retailers throughout the US and Caribbean.

Be sure to check out their wonderful line of clothes for the Summer featuring many wonderful casual dress items as well as island dresses.
