Feeling good on Friday (with a little help from this month's cravebox products)

This week the weather has been nice. Sunny blue skies, and 60 degree afternoon temperatures. People are out of their winter hibernation, taking walks, riding bikes. Today is it is windy and raining. At least it is Friday!

Two more finds in this month's Cravebox are thinkThin® bars and EBOOST®.

thinkThin® bars are nutrition bars. Low in sugar, high in protein, gluten free. The bar I tried this morning is Chocolate Dipped Mixed Nuts.

The bar tastes really fresh, the chocolate is good, and it's not too crunchy, not too chewy.This bar has 10 grams of protein, 4 grams of fiber and only 3 grams of sugar and 190 calories. There are almonds, peanuts and cashews in this variety. The bar has a chocolate bottom layer.

The other variety of thinkThin bar in this month's Cravebox shipment is Creamy Peanut Butter. I am not much of a peanut butter type person, so I am going to let another family member give this one a try. I gotta say I am a fan of the Chocolate Dipped mixed nuts bar. You can find thinkThin bars in stores and online at thinkproducts.com

For the morning beverage I gave EBOOST® a whirl. I do mean whirl because you have to mix the packet in a glass of water.

EBOOST is a daily Health booster. Vitamins, mineral and pure-nutrients are in this little packet. What is not in the packet is sugar, artificial flavors. This is the all natural orange flavor. It does taste like orange. I was expecting that funny nutritional drink mix taste. But, it is pretty good. You can definitely taste orange. It's low in calories too only 5 calories in this glass!

EBOOST is available to purchase online and in stores. Find out more at eboost.com.

Giveaway of New Soft Scrub® 4-in-1 Toliet Cleaner to three lucky winners.

Let's talk about cleaning toilets. Hmm, I'd rather not talk about that, or clean them. However, I don't want dirty toilets in our house, so I have to clean all three of them. I'd clean four or five because I really would like two downstairs bathrooms in my next house. We have one powder room on the first floor and two full baths upstairs.I'd like three full baths upstairs. Why in the world would I want to clean all that?
