As the summer days slip by and we near the first day of school, there’s a shift that happens. We start to build our calendars, figure out the morning routine, consider where to keep backpacks for easy grabbing on the way out the door. The kids become busy with sports practices and games, and me? I start to think about how I’ll spend those days alone again. Gone are the days of sharing the same snack as the kids, or watching the same television show – it’s my turn to enjoy.
I no longer have to hide with my own snack, I can sit out back and enjoy a book (in peace and quiet) and lazily nibble something more grown-up, like these Blue Diamond Almonds & Fruit. I’m sure the kids might enjoy too, but these are more sophisticated flavors, and they just scream at you to enjoy slowly, something all moms know kids are incapable of doing.

Blue Diamond Almonds & Fruit are available at Walmart, where you would find other nuts. With the current Ibotta offer, you can enjoy a nice little $1 back when you purchase! It’s a great deal when trying something new, so make sure to sign up for Ibotta if you aren’t already using it.

When you start to think of summer slipping by and the busy days of back-to-school filling the calendar once again, do you do anything for yourself? I know the first day will be a little bit of a shock, but by the second or third I will be enjoying the warm sun with my feet up and shades on. I’ve contemplated booking a massage, or an overdue hair appointment… I wonder if they’ll let me bring in my Blue Diamond Almonds & Fruit to enjoy as I relax?
