Hot Mama In The City

My favorite time of the year is finally here and I'm ready to say bye-bye to summer and hello to sweater's, jeans, scarves, boots, hot coco and pumpkin spiced everything!

To demonstrate all the ways Sears offers more to its members and customers, it has produced a video series called More To You featuring surprises with real people, based on real tweets from people who want to give more to the ones they love.

As a mother of two children I know that parents around the world always want to give more to their children. We want them to be happy in the present and in their future, we also want to provide for all their needs and that's why many of us work hard everyday, take on extra responsibilities, stay up late when they're sick and do so much more because we want to give them everything they need and so much more.And as a daughter I recognized and highly appreciate the efforts my parents had made and continue to make to ensure that my siblings and I have what we need and that we're happy. So as a mother, a daughter, sister, niece, and friend, I want to give more to all those that I love and this recent video from Sears reminded me of just that.

Many of us who love our cup of warm brewed coffee love that we can make it our own by adding sugar and/or flavored creamer. For me, my creamer is just as important as the cup of coffee itself. I'll be honest, I do not like pure brewed coffee. I enjoy my cup of coffee most when I've added some sweet flavors to it. I rarely drink coffee when I'm away from home because I don't have my favorite creamer on hand and carrying around coffee creamer is just not practical.

Folgers now have these flavor enhancers for your cup of coffee! Folgers Flavors can be added to any cup of coffee for an enhanced taste. They're perfect for on-the-go. Whether you're attending a meeting, gathering or staying out of town at a hotel. You can easily add some more flavor to your complimentary coffee with Folgers Flavors.
