Summertime Faves!

Here are my latest addictions:
(Blogger thought that they were so important, it underlined each item and I can't undo it!)

Morning Star Farms: Grilled California Turk'y Burgers

While I know that most of you aren't typically fans of "tofu" these are delicious! They have a yummy combination of tomatoes, avocados and soy protein...packing a great punch of flavor and they are good for you!

French Press

Because I am really fancy and formal, I bought mine at HomeGoods for about $16. I love a good cup of iced coffee and the French Press delivers! Just pour boiling water into the press, add coffee grounds (not instant coffee, just regular old grounds, and put on the top. Let the coffee steep for about 5 minutes and then press down. The strainer will push all of the grounds to the bottom of the carafe for a stout cup of coffee. I let mine get to room temperature and then refrigerate.

Basket

I feel like Little Bo Peep carrying my basket around town, but it is great! I put all sorts of things in it. Today it was my devotional books, my computer and my planner. Hit the road to Starbucks and I am all set! Rumor has it that they are available at Walmart these days :)

Pop Chips

While I can't say that I love every flavor, I really love the BBQ variety! They are packed with fiber and really fill the salt cravings I have been having in this heat! Forget Baked Lays (which I think taste like cardboard) and pick up a bag of these!

  2. Love this post, but have to be honest that the tofu burgers make me want to gag just reading about them. I would make a TERRIBLE vegetarian. :)

    I have been eying those pop chips, and have wondered if they are any good. I think I'll pick some up tomorrow on our weekly grocery run.
