Not Your Granny's Apples!

1 12 2009

I am a master procrastinator. Oh yes. I am procrastinating, again!

Yesterday, I came home to a delightful package from Peggy at Old World Enterprise Group, the makers of Bare Fruit Snacks. Thanks Peggy!!
My husband and I are both CRAZY about the Granny Smith bake-dried apples.
Yes, I was so excited that I didn’t even snap the pic before ripping open the bag. These are SO TASTY! OH MY GOSH!! Go buy a bag NOW! Seriously! Seth said they are even BETTER than apples. I have to agree.
But wait, they ARE just apples.
How the heck did they get so tasty?
Best. Dried. Fruit. Ever. Handsdown.
We ate the bag in less than 24 hours. They are THAT good!
I even had some for a meal today mixed with Oikos Honey and slivered almonds. It was perfect! Crunchy, sweet, tart, creamy…
I love these. No added sugar, preservatives, additives… No added junk whatsoever. Just crunchy natural goodness.
I WILL be ordering these when my stash runs out. Most definitely. No question about it.

I plan on trying the mango tomorrow. YUM!




Weak Week

24 11 2009

Shooo. I feel like a GIRL at the gym this week. :-D I am glad to be back on track, though. Hopefully this little holiday we have sneaking up on us won’t be too detrimental to my progress. I’ve jam-packed this week w/ weights so I should be done by tomorrow! It’s times like this that planning ahead really pays off.

Anyways, I wanted to post yet another Oikos review!! I love LOVE this stuff, and now I have had the chance to try every flavor. My favorite is easily the Fruit on the Bottom variety. Strawberry is my fav, then blueberry. This is surprising because usually I’m a blueberry kinda gal.

How can you NOT love all that strawberry goodness?

The nutrition facts aren’t too shabby either. (I would post a pic here, but my pic is blurry! LOL!)
HOLIDAY CHALLENGE

I have had a lot of people comment, email, IM, etc. me about the possibility of a holiday challenge. It looks like a healthy split between something like a sugar-free challenge and a workout challenge. I think a combo may be in order!
I will post the details BEFORE Thanksgiving so that we can get all of our ducks in a row! :)




Yum Yum Gimme Some!!

I had the most amazing breakfast Friday. Yes, I am just now telling you about it. I’m a slacker! :-D Actually, I just didn’t want to bombard you with a ton of Amazing Grass and Oikos posts, like I was some sort of brainwashed broken record… but, actually, I am. I can’t get enough of either!!

BEHOLD

Oikos and Amazing Grass unite!!! for an Amazingly delicious breakfast.
I mixed together two of my favs, Oikos Honey and Amazing Grass Chocolate Infusion Amazing Meal. It was a match made in breakfast heaven.
Oh, but I couldn’t just stop there… I had to top it with dark chocolate chips, dried coconut, and frozen banana slices. Perfection. If I wasn’t out of Amazing Grass Chocolate Infusion Amazing Meal, I would have it again on Friday… it was a perfect way to start the end of the week. I like making Fridays feel extra special. I’m cheesy like that.
I want to eat Amazing Grass products and Oikos Organic Greek Yogurt with EVERYTHING. I wish I was joking. It’s getting a bit ridiculous.
