Ten Reviews [II]

I’ve got a pile-up of products to share.  As usual, some were good, some were okay, and some were losers. 1. Zing chocolate peanut butter bar Kyle stole this from me, but took a photo (which means he knew he was in the for-Elise-only bar stash).  In any event, here is his review: Zing bar was good.  Tastes like a tiger’s milk bar (for anyone that matters to) but better and not as chalky.  Fluffy enough to be chewy but hearty enough to be satiating. 2.

A bit bruised

So here’s the sitch.   Did I mention I have a triathlon in under 30 days.  Problem?  Yes.  It gets worse.  I got in an accident yesterday while riding my bike, which I was in denial about until I went to work today…and wound up in the ER half way through my shift.  I feel like I got hit by a bus.  I am so so sore.  It’s unbelievable.  I have less than 50% range of motion in my neck and my tailbone is badly bruised.  I basically feel stiff all over.  Anyway.  I don’t… Read more >

Instantly we were slammed with people pushing samples at us…nibbles and bites of savory, creamy, sweet, smooth,… Read more >

soynut butter goes with everything

Weekend, finally. I bought a jar of soynut butter yesterday evening (after work grocery shopping is dangerous). I finished the jar today. That’s unacceptable! I started the morning (ok, afternoon) with coffee (ff vanilla creamer, skim plus, and stevia). Then I dug right into the soynut butter…I put it on EVERYthing I could get my hands on (including spoons by themselves). I finished off the Ezekiel bread with it (hmmm…approx 7 slices?) which was GREAT with a nice glass of silk soy milk and left me waaaaay full. Then I decided I should probably get… Read more >
