Not Enough Time

I have been burning the candle at both ends lately trying to keep up with everything that I need to and want to do. There is just not enough time in the day!! I haven’t had the time to bake as much, I’ve missed a couple of runs I wanted to do, I’ve barely seen or been able to spend time with my husband, and I haven’t been sleeping as much, or as well. Ugh!

This also means that my blog hasn’t been given the dedication that I want to give to it. But I am still going to try and blog as often as I can.

I do have a couple new products to review though!

Over the weekend I tried a Nature’s Path Organic Blueberry, Flax, and Soy bar. I was pleasantly surprised by the last Nature’s Path bar I had, so the stakes were high. Thankfully this one was a winner as well! The blueberry flavoring was great and the bar was soft and delectable.

I was having a serious ice cream craving while grocery shopping the other day, so it was my mission to find some ice cream that I could then take home and devour!!

After much contemplation, I ended up purchasing this coconut ice cream. It was on sale (still $3.89!), and I loved the short ingredient list!

I was a little disappointed though. Don’t get me wrong, I love shredded coconut and coconut flavored things (heck, I add shredded coconut to almost every yogurt bowl I create and bowl of stovetop oatmeal I cook), but I was not crazy about this ice cream. I really did have high hopes for this kind, but I was not diggin’ the flavor or the texture.

With all that said though, if I was lactose-intolerant or vegan, this would be an option worth looking into.

I love making things from scratch, but when time is of an essence, some things have to give–and for me one of those things is homemade salsa. (But in a future post, I must share my recipe for homemade salsa!) I picked up some salsa at the grocery store and this kind definitely tastes homemade!!

So fresh tasting.

Question

What is your favorite brand of ice cream from the grocery store?

I need some help since I failed on my last purchase.

Alright, I’m off. Time to get some much needed rest!!
