1/2 pound sausages, sliced, no nitrates

ChopSaver Lip Balm

Hi folks!! I just returned from a trip to Whole Foods where a woman stopped me about chapstick she was selling. I tried it and loved it! It is made from all natural ingredients like shea butter, avocado oil, and vitamin E and was created by Indianapolis trumpeter Dan Gosling in his kitchen.

I will admit it was absolutely amazing but it is a little pricy, at 5 bucks a stick! You can only get this at Whole Foods and through the Chopsaver website. I recommending at least trying it, you lips will thank you!

It is Gluten Free so I had to support the cause right? ;)

Enjoy!

Luna Bars

What is your favorite health bar? Mine personally is Larabars but recently Luna Bars came out with a few protein bars that are gluten free.

As of March, 2011, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Cookie Dough, and Chocolate Cherry Almond will be transitioning to be gluten free, as well. We removed the barley malt extract, a potential gluten concern, from the rice crisps in Chocolate Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cherry Almond flavors. The new gluten free product will hit shelves as soon as March. You can tell if your LUNA Protein bar is gluten free by looking at the packaging.

Make sure they say gluten free on the package before buying!

Enjoy!!
