Friday Finds!

It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday!

If Rebecca Black is in your head now, I apologize. But the good news is, it's Friday!

Some of my recent finds:
  • Cauliflour Foods Pizza Crust
The concept of a cauliflower crust for a pizza has been around for a while now but I had never actually tried it. It seemed like too much work for a sad excuse of a pizza. However, I had a discount to use on Cauliflour foods and I had heard good reviews so I gave it a go! The crust is comprised of just four simple ingredients, 8g carbs and 180 calories for the whole crust. I went classic and topped mine with hearty pizza sauce, fresh mozzarella and basil. It was really good! I found that the toppings were a bit heavy for the center of the crust but I was able to eat it pretty much mess free. It obviously didn't taste like ordinary pizza crust but a nice alternative especially if you follow a gluten free or low carb lifestyle.Check them out here: https://www.califlourfoods.com/



  • Mary Ruth's Organic Moisturizing Oil 
There are some things that are just a little frightening to rub on your body. Mary Ruth's Organic moisturizing oil is not one of them. This oil is good for your body, hair, nails, etc. It is cruelty free, non-GMO, vegan, etc. etc. Not only that but it makes me feel so good putting it on after a shower. My skin feels soft and moisturized. I have been scarcely applying it to my hair because I'm wary of causing my hair to be oily but I imagine it would be good to apply before I shower.

  • Good Day Chocolates
Time to take my supplements...ughh, right? Wrong! Good Day Chocolates makes fair-trade chocoalate candies with benefits! Take your pick from Turmeric, Probiotic, Energy, Calm, Sleep and more. I haven't actually tried them yet but I did obtain them! I can't wait to try them as I take several of these supplements as needed in boring pill form. I would love to supplement with chocolate! Check them out here: gooddaychocolate.com or at Whole Foods!

Product Review: Tru Fru

Image
If you dip anything in chocolate it's instantly 10x better, right? I like freeze dried fruit and I like  love chocolate so combining the two is a recipe for success!  That's what Tru Fru has done.  The fruit is harvested fresh, freeze dried to lock in the majority of the vitamins, taste, and nutrition. The fruit is then coated in rich chocolate for a snack that is both nutritious and indulgent tasting! You don't have to choose between a nutritious snack or a tasty treat. You can have both in one. That's the concept, so let's get taste-testing! They have several different varieties including: Raspberries, Cherries, Coconut Melts, Strawberries, Bananas, and Cranberries. I first tried the Strawberry variety because chocolate covered strawberries are classic! I really liked it! The dark chocolate coating was smooth and rich while the freeze dried strawberry interior was crunchy and sweet with a slight tang. I found this to be perfectly balanced with

Must Read List

Have you been spending more time at home? Have you finished your entire list on Netflix? If the answer to these is Yes, you might be looking for some ways to fill your time. I personally love to read, especially while laying out in the sunshine. So I thought I would share some of my all time, must read books! I'm a fan of fiction so these books are all fiction! Longtime Favorite:  A Separate Peace I read this book as a freshman in high school and it never left me. The emotions are so piercing and the story so unique that I never forgot it.  Classic:  The Picture of Dorian Gray Thought provoking, emotive, and relatable to the core - this timeless classic will have you turning pages.  Female Must Read:  The Bell Jar Sylvia Plath captures a character that reached deep within my soul. It touches on mental health, feminism and more all while being extremely readable, imo.  Lived Up to the H ype:  The Fault in Our Stars John Green is a master story-teller and this book lived up to the hy
