#Shot4Shot – A #ShotOfCoffee & #MyMugShot Collaboration for Good! {Giveaways Galore!!}

There are a lot of things I take for granted… that *we* take for granted. One of those things is the fact that I can easily take my kids to their regular checkups for their required vaccinations. Keeping them protected from life threatening illnesses through vaccines is as simple as a quick visit to our friendly pediatrician.

Did you know that vaccines aren’t easily accessible for everyone? There are many children in under developed countries who die all the time from lack of vaccines… in fact…

1 child dies every 20 seconds from a disease that could have been prevented through a simple vaccination.

 

What a heart breaking statistic. I feel moved and compelled to do whatever I can to change it, which is why I am partnering with my friend, Tracey Clark, and the United Nations Foundation’s Shot@Life campaign in a project to make vaccines accessible to children everywhere.

Tracey, our partners at Shot@Life, and I are teaming together this week for Global Immunization Week. Our goal is to raise awareness and funds for this important cause. Of course, we wanted to get you all involved by making this a week full of creative opportunities and incredible prizes. Are you ready to learn how you can help? It’s as easy as spreading the word… and taking a picture of your coffee!

#ShotofCoffee + #MyMugShot = #Shot4Shot

 

Those of you who follow me through various social media outlets know that I have a slight obsession with taking pictures of coffee. Through the #ShotofCoffee hashtag, I and many of you have been sharing your morning cup of Joe with others. I found my kindred coffee spirit in Tracey when I discovered she did the same thing, but with a #MyMugShot hashtag! What do these two hashtags and all the fun pictures we take have to do with vaccines? This is where you come into the picture!

  • You are invited to join us for a week of coffee, creativity & giving kids a shot at life! All week long we encourage you to share your mug shots (#mymugshot) of your morning shot of coffee (#shotofcoffee) with us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and/or your blog. We cannot wait to see the images you capture and share with us for #Shot4Shot.
  • By brewing our coffee and steeping our tea in the comfort of our own home, you save time & money. We ask that you contemplate how much cash you spend of coffee out and about and consider donating that money you won’t be spending this week to making a huge difference in the lives of kids that need a shot at a healthy life. $20 can give a child vaccinations for life… $20, that’s it!
  • This week, we’re making #Shot4Shot a social endeavor! We hope you will share your participation through your social networks. The object is to turn our shots into shots by raising awareness about Shot@Life. Tracey and I will be co-hosting the Shot@Life Twitter party on launch day, Thursday 4/26 at 9am EST. Feel free to join in to help spread the word!
  • How about some real life, in person coffee fun? Gather some friends together for a coffee date this week. It’s a perfect excuse to catch up with friends AND make a difference. I’m hosting a bring your own mug, #shot4shot gathering on Thursday morning. The more collective energy we get behind us this week, the better.

Of course, helping kids in need is awesome enough, but we have some really cool prizes in store for you all too! At the end of the week Tracey and I will be randomly choosing six shots from the #Shot4Shot participants to receive one of the following fab gifts, courtesy of our #Shot4Shot supporters (remember to hashtag your coffee/tea/mug photos and tweets with #Shot4Shot to be included in the giveaways!):

  1. Big Picture Classes is offering away a complimentary spot in Tracey’s next photo workshop Picture Black & White.
  2. We’ve got a limited edition Shot@Life Messenger bag.
  3. Shutter Sisters is offering up a signed copy of Expressive Photography. (This is one of my absolute, favorite photography books!)
  4. Ephiphanie Bags has donated one of their coveted camera bags. You read right!! How awesome is that?
  5. Making your own coffee at home is even easier with a brand new Keurig brewer! We have one Signature Keurig brewer with 36 K-Cups for you!
  6. Paper Coterie has offered a $100 gift card. You’ll go as crazy as I do for their stuff… I promise!
  7. And we have a BONUS for EVERYONE!  Paper Coterie wants to help us thank all of you who choose to participate by giving every single person who shares a #Shot4Shot image this week a lovely photo journal. What better way to feature your own favorite photograph from the week? You help us spread awareness AND you get a gift. Amazing!

We cannot wait to celebrate Shot @ Life with #Shot4Shot this week with all of you!

I know this post is loaded with information, but hopefully you aren’t too overwhelmed! Basically, the goal is simple… let’s save some lives by bringing awareness to this important cause.

*We would love for the United Nations Foundation and all of their incredible partners to feel the Shot @ Life love this week. Please visit Shot @ Life on facebook and give them a like for us.

*If you believe in giving kids a shot at a healthy life, like we do, please visit the Shot @ Life website and take the pledge! Your support helps so much.

*To donate to the Shot @ Life Campaign, please visit our Crowdrise page. The money you save by brewing your own coffee at home could give a needed vaccine to a child who wouldn’t otherwise get it. And a donation of only $20 gives one child ALL the vaccines they need for a shot at a healthy life. Only $20.

*Beyond the #Shot4Shot hashtag (and if you’re so inclined the #mymugshot and/or #shotofcoffe) please use the hashtag #vaccineswork so all that we share together is on the radar of all of the other people out there looking to give kids a shot at a healthy life.

*For your Paper Coterie journal code, all you need to do is send us an email with a link to at least one of your #Shot4Shot submissions and we will send you your code. Woohoo! Journal codes will go out following the #Shot4Shot week festivities.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! We appreciate your help in spreading the word for this important cause!

    Such an amazing event! I will most definitely be spreading the word and of course playing along. I need to start brewing my coffee at home anyway. I’m awful because I waste so much money each week buying coffee. Such a waste of money and, like you said, that cash could go to someone who is needy!

    • Kristen says

      April 23, 2012 at 7:16 pm

      I was horrible until I got my Keurig… which makes it way easy to enjoy coffee at home. As you know, I still enjoy my coffee shop latte’s every now and then, but I also enjoy the money I save not buying it so often! Thanks for participating!

    Fantastic! I just attended a lecture including info on why it’s so important to continue with vaccinations. Still don’t understand why parents don’t get it!?

    • Kristen says

      April 23, 2012 at 7:18 pm

      I understand there are pluses and minuses to everything we do, especially as parents, but the statistics are heart breaking. Awareness needs to be spread everywhere to save lives.

New ink inspired by a quote in my friend @andiemmitchell amazing memoir “It Was Me All Along”. 

I tend to be an all or nothing person and look at long term and get overwhelmed instead of just taking things one day at a time. I’ve said her quote to myself multiple times a day for years. Now I’ll have a permanent reminder. 

The full quote: “Can you do it today? Can you make it through today without bingeing? Just today, and tomorrow we’ll reconsider?”

I need to go back and get a couple missed spots filled in but I love it. Thanks Rob at @irezumitattookc 🎉

Here’s a fun fact I heard on the radio several years ago…October 5th is the most popular day to be born (9 months prior is New Years Eve-ish). 🎉 

Happy birthday to all my many many birthday twins out there! It’s the big 4-8 for me…although this past year as a Covid long hauler I feel like I’ve aged 20 years in the past 1. But things are looking up! I’m excited for the next 365 days of my life. I’m blessed and so thankful to still be here, chugging along.

This picture is from last week when @kellykdoyle and I were visiting colleges in Colorado. If I have any followers with ties to @coloradostateuniversity or @cuboulder I’d love to chat!

I love being a parent of teens...but I miss the days of parenting kids who loved going to school, who didn't struggle with major anxiety, who loved their bodies, and were confident about how they looked. I miss pre-covid days where lunch wasn't distanced, kids had the opportunity to connect and socialize at school, where mask-wearing wasn't even a topic, let alone one that divides. 

The past 2 years have changed my kids. They have gained so many positive things, but they've also gained a new kind of anxiety that wasn't there before. And I hate it for them. They've seen first hand how long haul covid has changed our family. They've seen the selfishness of others in ways they haven't seen before. They've had to grow up faster, worry about things they shouldn't have to worry about, and learn the hard way how this world can really be. And it hurts my heart for them. 

I have a new senior, sophomore and 6th grader here at home. Missing my sophomore in college a ton. I hope the world is kind to them and they are kind to the world. I want nothing more than for them to be happy and to be surrounded by good people who love and accept them for who they are and who also push them to live a full, rich and happy life. I pray every day for them - and for your kids...and pray that we are all raising a generation of empathetic and kind changemakers.

These two small business owners had a successful launch day for their new clothing and accessory brand, @impatient.us I’m so proud of my daughter @kellykdoyle & daughter from another mother, @kyleemdunn for making the time and financial commitment to launch their dream brand! They’ve done it all so independently and have navigated starting a small business way better than I could have at 17! Thanks to everyone who sent words of encouragement and showered them with support. It’s means so much!

I was a “houseplant lady” before the pandemic, but I think since the pandemic I get to add the word “crazy” to that title. So. Many. Plants. I’m not mad about it!

This weekend @kctinygreenhouse I picked up this beautiful Monstera Peru as well as a bag of Jeff’s Jungle Mix. You know when a new to you potting mix has you super excited, you’ve crossed the line into la la land 😂 Swipe to see how pretty it is!

What pandemic hobby did you pick up?

Book Lovers Giveaway (read to the end)!!! ⬇️ ⬇️ 

Supporting my local independent bookstore @rainydaybooks looks a lot different than it used to these days. Temporarily gone are the days of lingering in store, browsing the shelves, walking out with an armful of books I didn’t expect to buy. The pandemic has made independent bookstores pivot in ways they’ve never had to before, but I’m so happy to say they are CRUSHING IT! And as we virtually celebrate Independent Bookstore Day on 4/24, I wanted to share a way you too can help keep Independent bookstores afloat now (and in the future).

You know I’m a huge fan of @librofm , the absolute best audiobook alternative that gives money back to the independent bookstore of your choice with your audiobook purchases. Well, to celebrate Independent Bookstore Day on 4/24, they are giving YOU a free audiobook! Here’s what you need to do…

Spend $15 or more at your bookstore between April 24th and 26th. Submit your receipt at libro.fm/ibd and Libro.fm will email you a link to your free audiobook by April 28th! Easy peasy, right?

Wait! There’s more! 🌟 I’d love to give one Dine & Dish follower the chance to win a 3 month @Librofm audiobook membership. To enter, simply tag your favorite independent bookstore here and tell me what you love the most about it! That’s it! Winner will be chosen at random on April 27th. Yay, books!

Can’t believe we’re doing the college tour thing already with my second baby! 

So question for any of you who sent your kids to out of state schools or went to out of state schools...how did you do it? She wants to get the heck out of Kansas (I’d like to go with her!). We have money saved, she’ll most likely get a scholarship or two, she’s paying and has money saved as well...but even with that out of state tuition is a beast of an amount. So, did you just assume that student loans were going to be part of that life? And is that worth it to give your kids a shot at a new life outside of your home state? I wish I would have left Kansas for university, and have been here since I was born 😩. I want different for her if that’s what she wants but also just don’t have any experience with how people do out of state college! Any tips?

J is for...jam!

My friend @wakschmale makes the best strawberry jam...and I completely forgot about a jar she gave me last year until this morning. Which then inspired me to make my favorite buttermilk biscuits. So so good. Are you a jam, honey, just butter or plain biscuit fan? I love biscuits allll the ways, except with gravy. I have super bad memories of biscuits and gravy growing up. 🤢
.
I’m still slowly making my way through the alphabet for @kimklassen_innercircle a-z photo challenge. I’m bound and determined to finish. It may just take me a little longer than I originally anticipated 🤗.

I is for Inspiration!
.
The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!
