Greetings, Dear Family and Friends! I send you well wishes from the 3 Hearts Garden.
The Carriage House Garden at Three Hearts, May 24, 2021
Isn't it just amazing how much a garden can change in just a couple of weeks? Our lilacs are finished (boo-hoo, it always makes me sad), daffodils are long gone, and there are a few tulips if you look really hard. Now it is the Dane's Rockets having a blast all over the grass. I don't think we have ever had so many in our yard as this year. We do have some Dianthuses, but not as many under the Crab Apple. The violets took over a lot of space and have crowded them out, but I have plans for those violets. Oh, and we got Iris blooms just over the weekend and in time for my birthday. I love all my flowers so very much and am so grateful to have them.
Speaking of being grateful. . . in appreciation to God for my life, I'm currently doing a fund raiser for the Northcott Neighborhood House in Milwaukee. Northcott Neighborhood House is a mission started by the United Methodist Church in the 1960s. (For those of you who don't know, I've been United Methodist all of my life.) The Northcott mission helps people with food, personal necessities, job training and more. They give hope to those who need it. Did you know that Milwaukee is in the top 10 of poverty-stricken cities in our country? I love the Northcott mission and am hoping to round up donations to go toward personal care items. Since so many of you kind hearts have come to the rescue with donations for deodorant and helped me exceed my goal of151 in less than 24 hours, I am hoping to use any additional funds toward shower gels and lip balms. If you would like to help, please contact me at akokanwellness@gmail.com. And a huge heartfelt thank you to all who have contributed already. Together, we can make a difference to a lot of people in need!

And now that I've mentioned deodorant, Avon deodorant is Buy One Get One Free right now. It is a great time to stock up for summer. Our deodorant smells good and goes easy on the skin. My son had some issues with red under arms when using other products, but he does very well with Avon's deodorant. Wild Country is his number one pick, with Black Suede a close second. I love the Skin So Soft deodorant myself, but have been known to also use some of the ones that match my favorite fragrances - Haiku and Far Away. But really, the Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual deodorant goes with anything as it is a light floral scent that is not overpowering at all.
I also would like to remind you all that there is an Avon Live Stream shopping event tomorrow evening at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. (That's 7:00 Wisconsin time.) While you don't have to be there at the exact time (there is usually some time allotted after the event to get your shopping done), you must be registered BEFORE the event begins in order to get the free goodies that Avon loves to give away at these things. Last time they gave away up to $89 in gifts with a minimum purchase. This time, the free gifts with purchase are valued at over $100. I do not know what they will be, but they should be pretty nice. There are also giveaways that you are eligible for if you register for the event. You can register here.
Avon's Live Stream Shopping event will feature Avon's own Ashley McGowen, and I just love her. Ashley is passionate about fashion and jewelry, and she will have a guest with her to talk about getting summer ready. I love that through Live Streams, our customers can get acquainted with the great people behind Avon. Ashley is just a delight to watch and I'm sure you will enjoy her.
And last, but certainly not least, if you didn't already know, Avon recently launched some products for dogs and the homes they live in. :) Your pups can be pampered with the new Pet Shampoo that comes in two scents Check out this cutie below courtesy of Avon Learning and Development.
We have a new campaign coming, and I will save all the great things about that in another blog post. In the meantime, thank you for reading this one and take care.
Well wishes and blessings,
Your Avon Lady
