Friday Finds!

Another round of Friday Finds for you! I've been slacking on new tv and books but I'm thinking that may change in the winter! For now, enjoy more food/drink/and workout clothes lol!

Rebbl Drinks are plant based drinks with benefits. I've always thought they sounded good but neglected to try them, until now! I tried the Cold Brew Maca and boy, was it good! It had a good coffee flavor, creamy texture and sweetness to compliment the coffee. I would recommend. It wasn't overly sweet but just right, in my opinion. Not only do they make delicious "elixirs", they have ethical sourcing and donate to Not For Sale to fight human trafficking. Check them out here: http://rebbl.co/. They have a lot of fun flavors with different super herbs and some with protein!

K'bosh Veggie Pizza Crusts are putting the kbosh on carbs! (Disclaimer: I enjoy carbs but I also enjoy added veggies, and trying new things!) This brand has a variety of crusts made from cauliflower and broccoli, zuchinni, kale, etc. They even have a dessert crust that is lightly sweetened with monk fruit. The crusts clock in at just 120 calories so you can go to town with the toppings. I'm excited to try these! Check them out here: https://kboshfood.com/

BOA Running Apparel is new to me! I'm a little picky when it comes to my workout apparel and definitely need different clothes for running and lifting. I decided to try the Women's Stamina shorts in Limeade and I like them! They are flowy and have built in "bloomers" so if you like to run commando, I guess that's good news! I wish they had pockets but they are very lightweight and keep you cool! Check out all their apparel here: https://www.boausa.com/

 Dragonfruit is a new-to-me fruit and I'm so glad I tried it! It has a similar taste and texture to kiwi and it is absolutely beautiful! I ate some plain and used it in smoothies to create beautify bright pink smoothies! You have to try it!


Have you tried anything new this week? Have you had dragon fruit before? Let me know!

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
