The flavors contain less than one percent alcohol per tub. These creamy cocktails will first debut in the UK with no news on when they will make their way to the U.S.
4. With Memorial Day upon us, where do moms stand on vacation plans this summer? A new survey shows what moms want to do, and what they want to avoid, for vacation.
The survey shows that while 93 percent of moms think it's safe to take a vacation, only 36 percent are comfortable flying. This means post-pandemic they are more likely to take road trips, packing up the car or RV.
The same survey shows that kids rate swimming and water parks as number one for summer fun after being cooped up for a year.
The survey conducted for Jellystone Park by Touchstone Research shows more moms are open to camping than staying in hotels than before.
