Going Primal,new foundation and raw treats
For starters it's been so freakin cold out lately. Sunny but cold. Burrrrrr! Okay weather report is out of the way. Moving on....Primal Strips.
 I have been given the chance to sample Primal Strips meatless jerky. They are Non-GMO, vegan/kosher, no msg and made from seitan/soy/shitake mushroom. They are high in protein while being low in calories and fat. They come in 6 different flavors as you can see. My favorites are the Mesquite Lime, Hickory Smoked and Terriyaki. The first time I packed one in my son's lunch he came home from school telling me that his friends all really liked it. I know they all share their food with each other but I didn't realize so many of them would want to try it. So you could say these are kid approved! These are perfect for travelling, hiking or biking. Just throw them in a pack and you are set!   I've been inspired by Katie at Chocolate-Covered Katie , it started with her raw fudge "babies". I know it sounds weird if you don't know what I'm talking about but they consist of a few raw ingredients that are blended up and rolled into a fabulous treat! Like no bake cookies. I finally attempted my own and oh they are so good! These ones taste like an Almond Joy. Now I know why she is always making these raw treats, they are highly addictive! A great tasting snack without the added sugar and oil. Gluten free as well. I coated some with chocolate so it's like eating a truffle...in my mind! lol! 1/2 c. raw almonds 1/2 c. medjool dates(pitted) 1/4 c. shredded coconut 1/2 tsp. vanilla 1/4 c. dark chocolate(melted)optional In a food processor add almonds and blend until chopped finely, not butter. Then add the dates, coconut and vanilla. Take out and roll into balls. If you dip in melted chocolate put on wax paper and stick in refrigerater until hardened. Pack in airtight container.  Tuesday nights I don't usually make a time intensive meal due to Keaton's guitar lessons being in the late afternoon and it's also our night to watch LOST. You know speaking of LOST, we finally got a little bit of the puzzle answered after all of these episodes! I also had an exciting moment last night, well for me anyways. It's when Ben is in the teacher role and writes "ELBA" on the chalkboard, Elba spelled backwards is Able, you know how there is all these secret messages and references in each episode. Anyways, I was excited I caught it, if even if it doesn't mean anything. Bake to the food. I had a few huge potatoes sitting in my pantry so that's what we had. Baked potatoes topped with sauteed swiss chard and mushrooms. Filling and comforting. Yum!  The other day at New Frontiers, our local health food store, I found my new favorite foundation. It's EMANI Minerals. I've been preferring the liquid foundations over the powdered ones, so it's nice to find more of them out there. It's always so hard to find a new foundation that works, you know? So while I was at the store and I rubbed some of the foundation on top of my hand to try it out and when I got home to wash my hands I couldn't tell that there was any foundation on it. I mean, it blended in so well! I went back the next day to purchase some before we went out with some friends and it feels so light on the skin. It doesn't feel like you have any foundation on at all. It is a light to medium coverage. It is also vegan and gluten free! This color is the Oyster Beige. My skin is lighter during the winter months so I'll have to go to the medium color during the summer. Check it out!  related searches : Going
