Mother’s Day is almost here! I still can’t believe how fast this year is going! Here are some of my favorite gift suggestions!
I love candles and was delighted to receive such a beautiful one all wrapped up so elegantly. The candle I received smells heavenly and it is my new favorite candle. I light it and quickly escape into relaxation.
I also want to spotlight Latia Nelson, the founder of BB Boutique & Co., a self-made woman who pushed through homelessness as a single mother while going to school to start her own company.
In 2015, she experienced homelessness all while working two jobs as a young single mother and college student. Latia knew she was meant for more and leaned into her resourcefulness—creating handmade scented body powders for coworkers—into a thriving brand. She decided to take her background in art, design, and media to craft exquisite candles and luxury fragrance products.
BB Boutique & Co. & Co. isn’t just another luxury fragrance company. It’s a story of grit and perseverance fueled by passion. Latia Nelson spent over a decade crafting multi-sensory experiences that blend artistry, storytelling, and eco-consciousness to get to where she is today. Latia has been acknowledged as a 2020 Marquee’s Who’s Who recipient and an Allure Best of Beauty Award nominee. BB Boutique & Co. partners with 1% for the Planet and initiatives supporting women and young girls, Latia is committed to creating a positive impact on both people and the planet.
I believe that most Moms love coffee! Cambio Roasters, led by former Keurig® Chief Innovation Officer Kevin Hartley, is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking aluminum coffee pods. This innovative shift from plastic to aluminum represents a significant advancement in sustainability and coffee quality. The aluminum coffee pod addresses the environmental crisis caused by the 40 million plastic coffee pods that end up in landfills and oceans every day, offering a more eco-friendly and high-quality alternative.
When commenting on the urgency of such a huge transition, Hartley commented, “There’s no sense in compromising the quality of the world’s best organic coffees, expertly roasted and curated, by placing them in a plastic vessel that’s porous. Our landfills are growing at an alarming rate, and the timing is perfect to introduce recyclable aluminum pods. That’s why Cambio is committed to transitioning away from single-use plastics and towards sustainable alternatives.”
Plastic coffee pods are notoriously problematic for the environment, with only 3% of them being successfully recycled into new products. In contrast, aluminum is infinitely recyclable and retains over 60% of the aluminum ever produced in circulation. This makes aluminum a superior choice for both sustainability and recycling efficiency.
Moreover, traditional plastic pods are inadequate at preserving coffee freshness due to their porous nature. Aluminum pods, however, provide a nearly perfect oxygen barrier, ensuring the coffee maintains its intended freshness and flavor from roast to brew. This innovation not only enhances the coffee-drinking experience but also aligns with Cambio Roasters’ commitment to quality and sustainability.
Along with this innovation, Cambio only features 100% organic coffees carefully selected from small farms around the world. And, as always, Cambio donates 20% of its profits to Food 4 Farmers, who work closely with coffee-farming families struggling with food insecurity often for more than 6 months per year. According to Hartley, “This innovation is so exciting because it’s better for coffee, better for the world, and better for you. We hope this helps you fall in love with your Keurig® all over again.” In addition, Cambio announced its new partnership with 4Ocean, founded by two surfers with a mission to eradicate plastic from the world’s oceans.
Cambio Roasters is excited to offer its new aluminum pods in over 1,000 retailers nationwide, including Harris Teeter, Giant Martin, Hannaford and Walmart, as well as through their official website and Amazon, allowing coffee lovers across the country to enjoy a better, more sustainable coffee experience.

CASEKOO, a pioneer in innovative phone accessories, is thrilled to announce the launch of its highly anticipated Spring Collection. This new series of phone cases is more than just a product line—it’s a celebration of nature, a call to environmental action, and a testament to the power of incremental change. At the heart of the collection lies the thoughtfully designed “Watering Spring” case, a masterpiece that blends artistry, functionality, and a deep commitment to sustainability.
The “Watering Spring” case is a visual ode to rejuvenation and the boundless energy of spring. The design features a verdant green watering can, symbolizing life and growth, as it transforms into a vessel of abundance. From its gracefully curved spout flows not just water, but the spirit of spring itself—birds soaring in freedom, mammals leaping with joy, and flowers blooming in a symphony of colors.
Birds: Adorned in soft pastels and vibrant hues, they represent freedom and the return of warmth.
Mammals: Intricately detailed, they exude playfulness and vitality, captured in mid-leap as if frozen in a moment of pure exuberance.
Flowers: With delicate petals and lush greenery, they embody growth and the timeless beauty of life’s cyclical dance.
Together, these elements create a harmonious tableau that feels alive, as though the scene is in perpetual motion, pouring forth the boundless energy of spring.
It’s really beautiful! Mom will love this phone case! Positivity is so important right now and this will bring happiness. It’s available for the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Find it and others at https://casekoo.com/
Moms will love glasses! I love the ones I received to try out from GlassesShop. The Galveston Sunglasses (the black prescription sunglasses in the photo) and the Annapolis glasses in Crystal/Floral (also in photo) are my favorite go-to prescription eyeglasses for reading—and I love that the sunglasses are also great for reading! Usually, I just have regular sunglasses and reading glasses, but with the prescription sunglasses from this website, you can have both! Now how cool is that?!
