A Few of My Favorite Things

I’m generally pretty fickle when it comes to products, trying new things as often as I can. Variety is the spice of life, no? However, there are a few things I’ve tried and truly stuck with over time. Here are a few of them!

Bell Plantation PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter

I’ll admit, when I first heard about powdered peanut butter, I was skeptical. I tried it the traditional way, and was unmoved. It just wasn’t as satisfying to me as regular Skippy Creamy, my go-to peanut butter. But after trying it other ways, I discovered just how amazing this stuff is! You can use it as is in smoothies, roll bananas in it, or use it as a topping on ice cream (my favorite way). I’ve stirred it into oatmeal, put it on yogurt, used it in homemade protein bars, and even just whisked it into skim milk for a delicious drink.

You can get PB2 at many grocery stores, as well as Target, Walmart and Amazon.com.

Remington Simple Twist

It’s a piece of WIRE. It’s coated in something. (Whatever the material is they use to coat bobby pins, I’m guessing.) IT HOLDS MY HAIR. I do kettlebells, yoga and now, running, and it HOLDS MY HAIR. Better than an elastic. I got mine on a whim at Target. It came 2 in a pack for just under $6. I use it every day, because I love how easy it is to get my hair up and out of the way, and then how easy it is to let it down when I’m done. Plus, IT HOLDS MY HAIR. Need I say more?

Clorox Greenworks All Purpose Cleaner

I can’t even remember why I bought this stuff in the first place, I’ve been using it so long. First off, this  cleaner is 98% naturally derived, and while I like the sound of that, what I really love about it are two things: it has a gentle, pleasant scent, and IT WORKS. I’ve used various all purpose cleaners over the years and honestly this stuff works better than all of them.  It’s also budget friendly at around $3 a bottle, which you know I love!

So what are some of YOUR favorite things, things that you’ve used consistently over time?

Also, if you wouldn’t mind taking the time to take my little poll up in the upper right corner of the blog, that would be great! I’m always looking for feedback on which sorts of blogs you lovely readers like most!

Thanks all!
