Oddz & Endz Prior to Christmas


I have to say that we have been pretty spoiled the last month or so in the snow belt!  NO SNOW!  That, however, is supposed to change today, tho.  This first photo was taken last week during one of my lunches.  It was a lovely day!  We were near 70 degrees some of the days!  Woot!


My father works for a company that deals with snacks and beverage companies and he gets free samples a lot.  He recently introduced me to Core Organics and I have to say they are AWESOME!  I have liked every flavor I have tried so far!  YUMMO!  They say VEGAN right on the bottle, too!


A few finds over at The Raw Food World for my last shipment I received were Chocolate Snakaroons and Lemon Snakaroons from Laughing Giraffe.


I also got some Chocolate Kale Chips, Sesame Dijon Zuke Chips, and Tomatoe Pesto Chips!  Woot!


I stocked up for a few breakfasts to keep at work with some Superfood Cereal Cups.  I needed to grab some more UNsalted Sun Dried Tomatoes to add to my pantry as well as 3 pounds of Raw Cashews!  One thing to highlight is my NEW FAVORITE...Salt and Vinegar Almonds!  YUMM!  Sometimes I crave vinegar...I know that is weird but I do...and already tried these almonds and they are AWESOME!

Some of the foods I have been making at home prior to the holidays was a vegan taco meat made out of chopped cauliflower, walnuts, and Coconut Aminos!  LOVED IT!


And this Hemp Seed & Hazel Nut Sour Cream!  Not bad!

Many more posts coming VERY SOON!
