August Favorites

G2G Bars – This is one of those “instagram made my buy it” items. One of the girls I follow on Instagram that always has good food recommendations kept comparing these to Perfect Bars. While I do enjoy a Perfect Bar, I dare say, I might like these better. They don’t seem as sweet, which for me is weird to say, cause I’m a gummy candy/pure sugar fanatic.

I found them at my local Hyvee store, which has them cheaper than you can get them online! Woot woot! They are a little pricey so they aren’t an, eat everyday type of item for me, but I do love them for traveling or whenever I’m on the go/haven’t prepared any snacks. Let’s be honest, I’m not always prepared.

I try not to eat Almonds anymore, I’m not allergic (although my brother is). I just noticed that they upset my digestive system. It’s probably because they are a hard nut, which simply makes them harder to digest. That being said, I haven’t tried the flavors that have almonds. My favorites are the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip and the Peanut Butter Coconut Chocolate.

Brooks Glycerin 17 Running Shoes – I’ll be honest, for years I was a Mizuno girl. I’d tried Brooks running shoes in the past, and they just didn’t work for me. However, something changed and I am ALL IN with these shoes, ha! I almost want to buy a pair in every color just to make sure I have them when they wear out. For me, they are the perfect mix of comfort, squish, and lightness. This isn’t to say that this shoe would be great for everyone, but it’s worth looking at a brand you may have not considered before, or previously didn’t like.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water – I think this has been one of my favorites before, but it’s because I love it so much. I use this in the morning before the gym, because honestly, I’m usually too lazy to wash my face with soap and water that early in the AM. It’s also great at removing eye makeup that I may have missed. It’s easy to use and doesn’t leave any residue.

Gilbert’s Chicken Sausages – I also found these in my local Hyvee store, and let’s be honest, I’ve bought them every week since. I’m lazy, and these are quick and easy to make. I’ve only tried the Aloha Chicken Sausage and the Chicken Bratwurst. I love that they each come individually wrapped, so I don’t have to worry about eating them all right away if I open the box. It’s also great that they have no artificial ingredients, no nitrates or nitrites, and no antibiotics. I don’t know what “minimally processed” means for sausages, but they claim that too. Anyway, they are freakin delicious, end of story.
