Back Home with Cascade Ice

12/1/2021

I received compensation and product for this post from Unique Beverage Company, LLC. All opinions expressed here are my own.
Picture
I was born and raised in a small town in Washington state, right up on the edge of the Canadian border. The type of place where everybody knows each other and where the people are excited to lend a helping hand whenever someone is in need. I stayed there for 32 years. Went to college there, got married there, had babies (and started raising) them there; we adore the community.
Picture
Now that my family, as of this year, splits our time between Washington and Florida, I’ve come to learn that there are certain products I can’t get in my new location, so when I’m back in Washington I’m sure to stock up and enjoy! Cascade Ice has been a long time favorite of mine and with so many flavor and product offerings it’s easy to see why.

Today I am enjoying the Cherry Limeade that offers a sweet cherry taste complete with a classic lime tang. My favorite part about Cascade Ice Originals is that they deliver exceptional flavor without the calories. All 19 Original Sparkling Water flavors are sugar free with zero calories. I poured the Cherry Limeade into a glass with ice and added a lime wedge today making it a quick, easy and delicious red and green holiday drink!

I’m giving away 2 Cases of Assorted Flavors of Cascade Ice! Head to my Instagram post HERE for more information!

I like to store my Cascade Ice in the refrigerator so that it’s nice and cold whenever I want to grab one; I find it so refreshing!
I typically drink Cascade Ice on it’s own, straight from the can or bottle, but it is also a great, zero-calorie cocktail mixer. My favorite cocktail to make is made with vodka, Cascade Ice (in any flavor, I like to change it up!), a splash of pineapple juice and a squeeze of lime. Try it and let me know what you think!
You can view the entire lineup of Cascade Ice Originals flavors HERE along with other product lines they offer like Originals with Caffeine, USDA Organic, and USDA Organic with Caffeine.
I hope you have a happy holiday season with friends and family; thanks for reading!

Whatcom County Flooding: Families In Need

11/22/2021

0 Comments

 
Last week, mid November 2021, portions of Whatcom County, Washington suffered a devastating flood. It was the worst they’ve seen in 31 years and many people lost their homes, vehicles, businesses and belongings. Many of these homes were NOT in flood zones so no flood insurance. Those in flood zones were hit incredibly hard and although homes are insured in most cases belongings, appliances, furniture, etc are not.

I was born and raised in Whatcom County and continued to live there up until a few months ago so it is near and dear to my heart. It’s an amazing community and I have close friends and family members greatly impacted by this. Many have to find somewhere to live for the foreseeable future while still paying mortgages, insurance deductibles, and replacing belongings that were ruined.

I wanted to help in some way and many of you have reached out asking how you can help too so I am sharing GoFundMe pages for a few families that can really use our help. Every dollar counts; I know they will be so appreciative! Prayers would mean so much to the community as well!❤️❤️❤️
The Barnhart family of 7 is expected to be out of their home for 6 months: https://gofund.me/9b68cb7b
The Lara family lost everything in the flooding in Sumas: https://gofund.me/b6272ff1
The Colacillo family had severe damage in all rooms of their home: https://gofund.me/2f0cd197

My Little Pony: Fun Across Generations + details on the new movie you won’t want to miss!

9/12/2021

Snacks, a cozy spot and the new My Little Pony: A New Generation movie..sounds like a perfect night to me! We are so excited to watch it on Netflix when it comes out on September 24th, 2021! Growing up I was a huge My Little Pony fan and it has been such a fun way to bond and relate to my girls. I remember sitting in my room playing with my ponies as a child; brushing their manes and tails and coming up with adventures for them. Now it’s really come full circle seeing my girls do the same. They are now 5 and 7 but have been playing with My Little Pony figures for years.

Thank you to Hasbro for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are my own.

Picture
We were able to score some new My Little Pony figures, pajamas for the girls, and even a retro tee for Mom that are exclusively at Target to add to our collection, amp up our excitement and familiarize ourselves with this new generation of ponies featured in the movie!
Picture
Sunny Starscout has been a new favorite around here and when you’re this cute and come with 17 accessories what’s not to like! An extra added bonus is the colorful rainbow pattern surprise hidden under her hair; just use the special braiding tool (included) to reveal it!
Picture
Above I’m holding the Friendship Shine Collection consisting of 14 3 inch ponies featuring favorites from various generations. This would be a great gift idea for any little girl 3 and up! They are adorable and you are able to get a lot of characters at a low price point with this set.
Picture
The excitement surrounding this My Little Pony: A New Generation Shining Adventures Collection clearly can’t be contained around here! My girls play with this 6 inch size My Little Pony figure the most. This set is perfect for any mane-styling enthusiasts: 4 of the ponies have soft, long manes and all 6 have tails for brushing and styling. Comb included!
Picture
Picture
The years pass by so quickly and sweet moments like this I just want to slow down and last forever. Seeing my girls together giggling and using their imaginations to recreate moments inspired by the movie is so special, especially when they request that I join in on the fun!
Picture

Picture
We grabbed a few yummy snacks, the girls put on their cozy, hooded My Little Pony PJ suits, smacked on their My Little Pony snap bracelets, I threw my on Jrs Retro Tee and we’re ready for the new movie. Don’t forget to look for it on Netflix!

Valentine’s Day Snack Board

1/23/2021

0 Comments

 
We made a fun Valentine’s Day snack board recently, filled with sweet, salty and savory treats everyone is sure to love! It was such a hit with my family I thought I’d share it here too. If you have kids they can even help, or put the board together themselves.

What we added:
summer sausage
Laughing Cow cheese wedges
salami
Whisps crackers
m&ms
strawberries
raspberries
​licorice
Almond Roca
Rice Krispie Treats
wafers
Carrs crackers

We enjoy a mix of sweet, savory and salty items but you can change it up how you wish and even make it strictly a dessert board if desired. I added roses for display and that was a fun touch too!
Picture
Picture
Picture
The little fingers just couldn’t stay away!☺️These snack boards are always such a hit. Another fun idea that we have been making lately for snacks or even lunch are charcuterie cups! Meat, cheese, crackers, fruit, veggies, etc!

If you make either of these I’d love to hear about it! My social channels are linked below!

Shop Small this Season

11/16/2020

0 Comments

 
This year, more than ever, it’s important to remember our small shop owners and small businesses. Many have been forced to close their doors for periods of time due to COVID-19 and even those that never had a physical location to begin with have missed out on endless fairs and craft show opportunities in which they typically market their products. In addition to that, there are also fewer buyers this year due to job losses in our communities.

I’ve rounded up a few small businesses that I enjoy and wanted to share with you this season. I have shopped at and enjoy SO many small businesses and wish I could include everyone!

Cascade Ice: Zero Calories. Zero Sugar. All of the delicious fizzy flavor.

I am so excited to share Cascade Ice USDA Organic Sparkling Water with you guys today! If you are local to the Pacific Northwest like I am, you’ll be excited to hear that the company is located right in Everett, Washington.

I always make an effort to stay hydrated throughout the day as it’s one of the most important things you can do for your overall health. I find regular water gets boring day after day but don’t want the added calories or sugar that most beverages offer. Lately I’ve been enjoying Cascade Ice USDA Organic Sparkling Water; it’s my perfect match! It is free of calories, caffeine, sweeteners and sodium plus it comes in 9 delicious flavors, including Raspberry Lemonade, Pomegranate Mango, Ginger Lime, Citrus Twist, Black Raspberry, Grapefruit, Mixed Berry, Lemon Lime, and Cucumber. It’s bubbly and refreshing; perfect for enjoying after a workout, in a cocktail, with a meal or anytime you need a little pick-me-up! These 12 ounce cans are sold in packs of 8 in select stores across the country.

Click Here to Find it at a Store Near You!

If you’re like me and regular water is just not cutting it anymore, definitely try Cascade Ice USDA Organic Sparkling Water. Fun and flavorful without sabotaging my health goals; it’s a win/win. I love all of the nine flavors but would have to say that the Black Raspberry and the Pomegranate Mango are the two I reach for the most. If you grab some, share it on socials and tag me @haleyparkerstyle plus use hashtag #DayMadewithCascade; I’d love to hear your thoughts and what your favorite flavor is!

Movie Theater Birthday Party

11/2/2020

0 Comments

 
I finally got around to posting E’s Llama Birthday Party photos from this summer (here), just in time for B’s birthday!😆She decoded to go with a Movie Theater party theme this year and it was so fun and unique! Our family loves popcorn and movie nights so we decided to finally invest in a popcorn machine and have already used it quite a few times. I purchased all of the party decor and accessories on Amazon except the solid plates, napkins and silverware which I found at The Dollar Tree. Popcorn Bowl cake is by @sweet_indulgence_pnw.

We love themed birthday parties in this house! For E’s 4th birthday she requested a llama party and it was so fun (and surprisingly pretty easy to find decor for)! We found llama party napkins, llama paper plates, a mini llama piñata (we used as table decor), pin the tail on the llama game, llama straws, llama tablecloth, llama party hats, a llama banner, llama girls t-shirt, llama party gift bags and more! All decor is linked to easily shop here. Cake and cookies are by the talented @momosmuffintops.
