The best of Shopping Local in the Mitten (grocery edition)


Little known fact: I LOVE to grocery shop. I find it relaxing and love looking for nutritious food and new items for my family. I was so excited to be invited to the grand opening of Busch’s Fresh Food Market in Canton, Michigan (go here to enter to win free groceries by signing up for MyWay benefits!). It’s a neighborhood market that’s natural, urban and one of my new favorite places. You can find me at the honey bar (where you can buy local honey in bulk, as much or as little as you like), juice bar (I will take a Traverse City Cherry, please), Gelato bar (any flavor, please) or flower stand.Read More

Muffins packed with Veggies

There is nothing I love more than finding super yummy, on-the-go treats that are healthy and packed with veggies and healthy ingredients. It makes my family’s busy lifestyle so much more manageable to be able to heat up a super nutritious muffin before dance/swimming/school, etc. These Garden Lites Muffins are so incredibly delicious and the best part is: my kids LOVE them. I mean loooooove them. I grab our backpacks + muffins and we are ready to start the day.  Use this coupon to get $1 off your box! They come in several flavors, and while I love the blueberry oat, my daughter loves the chocolate version.Read More
