Four days later...

So, LONG story short...after 4 days (or so...I lost count), I have an "updating" (the process never ends) computer with INTERNET! :D I did, however, lose all of my favorites, saved files, etc in the process (I backed up my pics this time though!). So, while that doesn't put a smile on my face, I can't say that I wasn't expecting it. I may need to invest in a new computer in the future...or near future (I think I use my little hard drive far too much and it freaks out! haha). What can I say...alot (and I mean ALOT) of what I do happens on the computer...from loads of research and school work, to food reviews, to blogging here and there, to.....


Anyways, here is SOME of the food action that has been going on:

Breakfast from Friday (perhaps?!)...I'll say it again, Nature's Path Flax Plus Pumpkin Granola Bars are the bomb diggity! The Chocolate POM drink is pretty rockin' too! It tastes like coffee spiked chocolate milk, which made me guzzle down the whole bottle. Make sure that you shake it up really well (maybe even half way through) or it can settle a little...

I've got a PACKAGE! That's gotta perk ya up, no?! The remaining two POM drinks that were graciously sent to my house by POM, a homemade card, some random cereal samples that came in the mail, my favorite candy bar ever (I won't buy it for myself, but mom sure will!), coupons, mints...AND...

My goooooood friend Kristen gave me a massive bag of Almond M&M's simply because she is amazing, so (naturally) I portioned them out into little baggies! MMM Baby! Plenty of PB&J's the past 4 days! Cherrio!

Friday-sammies!
I ordered a super cool Gilmore Girl book off Amazon and in order to get free shipping I got a box of Zbars for $14! Surprisingly enough, the shipping was around $7 beforehand, so this box actually only cost like $7! Woooo for deals!
By the way, this is THE ULTIMATE gem of a book for Gilmore Girl fans! I can't put it down. I found it and had to get it for my mom for Christmas (early, no?!), so I can't post about it; but if you are a Gilmore Girls fan....you MUST email me, so I can show you this book! It ROCKS...
Although, shame on me for not writing it first!
Coupons for some Country Choice Organic products, so I can share what I find with you guys! Can't wait!
Kevaccino with Strawberries...my love!
A HARD pear...usually, I don't like pears because they always seem too mushy...this guy was too hard. I can't win. But, maybe you can. See, as I was eating this pear, I was searching around on a particular site...

MixMyGranola has some new stuff going on and I'm here to fill you all in!
  1. First of all, they have started a Granola Club that you can join.
