One Thing I Love About Blogging

Good Monday Morning Friends!

I apologize for not blogging yesterday.  I honestly do not think I have EVER taken a day off from blogging since I started on January 1, 2010.  I also apologize for being MIA from your blogs as well.  Unfortunately, I think I may not be able to catch up on yours until later today at the earliest.

Honestly I have something going on today that is taking up some of my time and energy and I have had to stay off the computer in order to focus on it.  I will tell you more about it after today :)

One of the things I LOVE about blogging is that people/companies WANT to give you things to try out so you can talk about them on your blog.

I was lucky enough to try some amazing things as of late that I had never heard of and never tried before.

Please allow me to share these amazing bars:

Now I know I have talked about/eaten/reviewed a lot of bars.  But these bars are different because they REALLY taste like you just whipped them up in your kitchen.  SERIOUSLY!  Also, they do not have a long shelf life-6 weeks is the limit and that makes me think they are closer to homemade then most.  They are called Jump Starter Body Fuel Bars and you can either order off the website or if you live in town you can get them at Metal Mountain Bike Shop.

Bill and I were so excited to try these. We decided to try the chocolate raisin one first:

Here are the stats:

Pretty good huh?

Nothing tastes processed about this bar.

It tasted amazing.  You could really taste the oats and all the different flavors.

Last night I also had the apricot one and it was delicious as well.

Well just wanted to share!

Hope you have a great Monday planned.  I look forward to catching up with you later :)

Make it a great day.

  1. I think it’s perfectly acceptable to take a day off from blogging. Those bars look fantastic. I hope you had a great weekend!

  2. Ohhhh you are ever so mysterious!

    Perfectly reasonable to take a day/days off blogging…I barely go near my computer on weekends.

    Those bars look yummy…

  3. Yeah! Thanks for showing the ingredient list, it really does look good! I’m always skeptical until I see the ingredients and this one passes the test!

  16. No need to apologize! Everyone needs to take time for themselves. I couldn’t imagine preparing a post every single day like you do!

    Those bars look GREAT; they appear to be really moist. I love the ingredient list too, and only 130 calories!

  17. How do you get so many product reviews? Those look awesome!

  18. Judi says:

    They almost look like no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies!

  19. Those look good, and possibly something to recreate at home!

    I agree that blogging brings along opportunities that I would never have had without it!

  20. Faith says:

    The bars look delicious!
