Hi!

I'm Whitney. Welcome to my little slice of the Internet, where I talk about life in Seattle and our travels beyond it. I have a handsome husbro I may have met outside of a bar, two crazy felines, and two kiddos, too. It’s a lot, so I’m not always spending as much time here as I’d like. Do you like reality TV, sampling all the products, and pickled veggies? Same! 

I'm so glad  you're here. 

Brand Next Door: Cuddle + Kind

Brand Next Door: Cuddle + Kind

There are so many brands and goodies and fun stuff I've been made aware of since becoming a mom. One of the most impressive so far is cuddle + kind. One of my best girl friends gave me Wyatt the fox at my baby shower and explained the cuddle + kind mission when she did: every hand-knit doll provides AT LEAST ten meals to hungry children. How could I not get behind that?

All of the dolls are so just sweet. I stare and stare and stare at Wyatt up on the shelf. I don't even let Oliver play with him yet because I want him to stay perfect so I can keep staring at him. They're ethically-made, and come in both small and large sizes. I was scrolling the website recently and saw they have a bear named Oliver! How cute is this guy? 

We have a first birthday coming up, so I may have to invest on our Oliver's behalf

If you're looking for a really unique and thoughtful gift for yourself or someone close to you, please consider cuddle + kind. They've given away 3,440,678 meals so far. Could you be the next to add to their ticker?
