New Favorites
30 Apr
Hey everyone! Congrats on getting one day done. Four more to go! The kids were saying today that there are only 28 days left to go & only 2 more full weeks. Time to get the countdown started. 
Tonight I wanted to share some new products that I’ve been loving!
#1 – My new sneakers
After work (& catching up on last night’s episode of “Real Housewives of New Jersey”!) I headed out for my first run since earlier this month.
I hadn’t been running because being outside any longer than necessary was causing my allergies to act up. However, we got some rain last week & things have been better, so I figured it was safe to venture out.
Since I just purchased my new sneakers on Friday, I thought this would be the perfect occasion to break them in! I could definitely tell the difference between these & my old, beat-up gym sneakers. Even though the run overall wasn’t all that pretty, the sneakers definitely helped to make everything a bit more comfortable.
#2 – International Delight Coldstone coffee creamer
I know, I know… these coffee creamers have a plethora of weird ingredients, but I just couldn’t resist! Have you seen the commercial for this product? A girl walks into Coldstone with her face pressed up against the ice cream case! I totally fell victim to marketing here because I’m pretty sure I was (& still am!) that girl; I just had to try it.
I added a splash of this creamer to my Starbuck’s breakfast blend this morning & I was pleasantly surprised. While I expected it to be good, I was worried it would be a little too sugary. Definitely not the case! While I don’t plan on using this every morning, it’ll be a nice “treat” every now & then.
#3 – Bare Naked fruit & nut cookies
While I usually try to stick to my grocery list, I picked up these cookies on a whim yesterday & I’m so happy I did.
They really taste just like fresh-baked cookies, & I love that you can see the dried fruit & nut pieces. Chris really liked these too, so they’re even man-approved! 
The only downside? There are only 8 cookies per box. I don’t foresee them lasting too long!
What are some new products that you’re loving lately?
Love the sneakers–they are cute!

Thanks!
I love the chocolate bear naked cookies! They are a bit pricey though. I think I’m going to try to recreate them at home

Agreed! Especially for only 8 cookies!
The countdown is on here as well! Woop-Woop!
….So much to get done this summer so I’m ready for it to get here already!

I’m sure you’re very excited for summer!
My kids (and I!) are counting down too! We are looking at 18 days…and seriously, I’m not sure they can go fast enough
Those cookies look fantastic! I love finding natural products on a whim.

Love the new sneakers – they are really cute! I’m a sucker for Coffee Mate creamer too…I know it’s full of junk but I love it! I’m currently addicted to the Peppermint Mocha variety – they sell it at Target year-round and it reminds me of a Starbucks Peppermint Mocha : )

Mmm I haven’t thought about peppermint mocha in a while!
I’m a sucker for flavored coffee creamers, so I’m sure I’d love the Cold Stone kind. Right now, I’m loving my foam roller and Chobani’s blood orange Greek yogurt.

I love the blood orange flavor too!
That coffee creamer looks delicious! I normally use the “natural” sweet cream or vanilla creamer because I like the ingredient list, but I definitely stand longingly at the coffee creamer refridgerator at the store looking at all the yummy looking flavors!

I usually get the “natural bliss” kind by Coffeemate (I think?) but I just couldn’t resist!
I have seen the cold stone creamer commercial and wondered how it tastes! I usually drink my coffee black or with a small splash of milk, but I agree about having a treat now and then! Your shoes are adorable!

I have been loving different coffee creamers lately. I just wish they carried holiday flavros all year long!

Oh gosh, I haven’t caught up on Real Housewives in so long – I feel like I’ve lost my connection with those women
I need to get on that, stat!
I didn’t try almond milk until just recently and I have been obsessed with it lately!
