Things I Love and Love Grown Giveaway

by LCCotter on January 25, 2013

First off….THANK you FRIDAY! And thank You to Jolene for Guest posting Wednesday. It was so fun to read all the Barre love.

Second.. I need a feel good post, full of.. well… LOVE! Here goes.

Things I love (particularly this week too!)

I love that my husband is back from Alaska and brought me souvenirs!

I love that I actually feel womanly again. Wait, let me explain. I recently got my nails done and my hair done. I haven’t had my hair  really “done” in almost a year (gasp) and I haven’t had a manicure in almost 5 years (double gasp)! I’m frugal, yup!

I love that my class was jammed packed yesterday and we all sweated it out together, like major sweat fest!

WOD

I love that it is 75F today and we are taking the pup to the trails to walk…..IN SHORTS!

I love that God is so blunt sometimes. As I sit, read my devotional, and eat my breakfast, HE reveals so much.

And speaking of breakfast, I LOVE the NEW HOT OATS from LOVE GROWN FOODS so much that I want to share.

i am loving the nutrition stats. other products like this are so caloric but love grown granola has always impressed me because it isn’t a ridiculously low serving size. so these oats are the same!

I would love the blueberry banana flavor! The stats also are pretty good compared to other flavored oatmeals. I normally add my own fruit to plain oatmeal, but these are pretty healthy :)

Reply

Jeffrey January 28, 2013 at 7:45 pm

I’m guessing I would love the flavor of the oatmeal since I am really addicted to the granola!

Peach Almond Vanilla is the only one I haven’t yet tried!!! If it is your favorite, it must be good. :) [Perhaps with some Butter Toffee Almond Butter on top.....]
