If there is one color that is also synonymous with Fall, it's Pink!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, and pink will be everywhere!

In fact, it's already turning up at all our local stores, as next Saturday is the first!

So I thought I'd share a way for you to be ready BEFORE October, to show your support
(and pink!) all month long, with not 1, but 2 products you'll use ALL the time


Our friends over at Trudeau have done it again!
They have come up with an entire line of great products that not only allow you to beat thirst in style, but to eat in style, while showing your support:

The Trudeau Corporation has been supporting the fight against breast cancer with their exclusive BCRF collection of hydration bottles and thermal tumblers and mugs. These products, developed with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, are designed exclusively for Trudeau’s product donation program and are sold in support of breast cancer research initiatives. To date Trudeau has donated over half a million dollars to BCRF alone.


The 24oz BCRF Cool Off Hydration Bottle from Trudeau is perfect for long trips, or for extra long dance classes, as Miss Grace soon figured out, after seizing taking the bottle when it came in! The bottle is guaranteed to be leak-proof (and it is, as no 9 yr old will EVER keep a water bottle upright!) with a non-slip grip, making it was easy to grab when your hands might be sweaty or west from practice! We also both like how it is double wall insulated, so that the water stayed colder and thus kept condensation at bay, which meant no water rings on the dance floor! Plus it has ounce markings on the side, so if you are mixing in electrolytes, or similar, then you can judge how much to add, based on water in the bottle! As a parent, I'm thrilled it is made of SAN and is BPA free too! Miss Grace loves how the flexible straw is protected from germs and gunk, until you're ready to use it, thanks to the concealment top. The straw goes ALL the way to the bottom of the bottle, so you get ALL of your water our, but it comes apart easily for cleaning! Plus it comes with it's own pretty dark pink carbiner, so it can be easily attached to your bike, gym bag, or wherever you need it! With its 5-year warranty, and low $17.99, price, this is a water bottle that will serve you YEAR round! 



Since Miss Grace claimed the water bottle, by default I got the Lulu Travel Tumbler, but I was perfectly happy with that as it is both cute and practical! This 16oz tumbler features a stainless steel exterior accented with a bright pink floral pattern, and matching pink split top lid. The top is a leak resistant flip, sip-and-go lid, making for safe travels with hot coffee! This tumbler can actually cover you for hot or cold drinks! I found that the polypropylene, double wall insulation, really did give you solid heat retention up to 2 hours, with about another hours for room temp. For cold drinks, I got more of three hours cold, though the ice had melted. This tumbler isn't meant to replace your expensive all day tumblers, but rather to get you from that first cup of java in the am to morning break, and it does! It's non-slip base is great for keeping it safely on your desk, or solid in your car's cup holder (which it fits in nicely), as well. This is my new favorite daily tumbler to drink coffee from, as I get more than a couple cups when I'm at home, or at work. For long travels, I might use a different mug in the car, but this is perfect for normal use! I love that it also comes with a 5-year warranty, and retails for $14.99, making it great for gift giving this October as well!
