I feel ashamed, as I only recently saw Disney’s Christopher Robin. Why? My daughter’s daycare took her to see it; therefore, I didn’t have an excuse to trek to the theater alone. But, all is well because I’ve finally seen the live-action film where a grown-up Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor), Winnie the Pooh, and friends.
Disney’s Christopher Robin was well worth the wait. I loved watching Pooh help adult Christopher navigate through his adult life to find his way back to being himself. The young Christopher Robin who was joyful, fun, and curious and loved a good adventure. It reminded me that as a full-time working mom, I shouldn’t let myself get sunken in by the business of adulthood, but to venture out, have fun with my family and friends. That is where joy is, at least for me.
I am happy that Disney’s Christopher Robin will be available on Digital and Movies Anywhere and on Blu-ray™ and DVD on November 6, 2018, on Disney.com. Then I can watch it as many times as I want with my family, and escape being an adult even if it is only for an hour and 40 minutes.

Winnie the Pooh Loves Honey & I Do Too!
Winnie the Pooh loves honey. Although I don’t like to eat is as much as he does, there is something I love about honey too! It is great for skin, especially during the colder months when our skin tends to become dry. Honey can make dull skin glow, hydrate dry skin, and even help with acne. I can see why Pooh loves it so much. A bear does need to ensure his/her fur stays soft and shiny.
Below I am sharing a simple Honey Sugar Scrub I use to help combat dry skin during the colder months.
