Box Subscription Obsessed

I subscribe to a couple different monthly mail box subscriptions and I think they are awesome. It literally is like Christmas to me, each month when those little, fun filled, totally awesome new product items are waiting on my doorstep. I currently subscribe to Bulu Box, Bestowed and Runners Box. Bulu and Bestowed are a monthly box, while Runner's Box is a bi-monthly subscription. Bulu Box is more geared around  healthy body, vitamins and well being. They have two options to choose from, I choose the Weight Loss box, I have only tried it once, last month and currently waiting for my July box to arrive. Runner's Box is the best subscription for running enthusiasts like myself. It is filled and stuffed to the brim with awesome, new, exciting running and fitness products, geared towards short and long distance runners. That box is backed a little bit more than the other boxes because it is bi-monthly, while the others are monthly. And now to Bestowed. Bestowed box contains about 5-6 full size healthy, unique, new options, hand picked by Heather Bauer, a nutritionist. This lady knows what she is talking about and what she is looking for. This is my second month with Bestowed Box and I haven't been disappointed yet. Today, receiving my Bestowed Box, was an early Birthday gift to myself. Opening it up, I fell in love. There are sweet potato chips, vanilla macaroons, an online exercise subscription, a Chia bar (obsessed with anything and everything Chia related at this point, FYI), crackers, and something so bizarre, but very unique and intriguing, puree Butternut Squash. Oh and a free subscription to Organic Gardening magazine. Once opening my box, I immediately put the point values on each of the items, that way I can plan and track correctly, even though I wanted to indulge and try each item right away, BUT I resisted. I did try the 34 brand crackers, no nutrition content was listed on them. The 34 brand crackers were crisp and light, but I would much rather have a cracker with substance for my hummus and snacking desires. I will report back on each item I try. My view here is subscription boxes are all the rage right now. And there is a box out there for anyone and a decent price point also. Bulu is only 10.00 a month, Bestowed is 20.00 and Runner's Box is 25.00. And you can cancel anytime you aren't satisfied. Google a box, try it out and I am sure you will fall in love with some new items, like I am.

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
