Farmer's Pantry Review!

-

**This is a sponsored post. I received product in exchange for my 100% honest review. All opinions are my own.**

I love snacks. Probably a little too much. I still shop like my parents are out of town sometimes. So, when I come across a snack that's not only good for me, but also helps others, double win!
Enter Farmer's Pantry. They start with ingredients sourced from family farms. They have two different kinds, crisps and meal snacks. Both use fresh ingredients to start and are seasoned and then cooked to perfection! I really liked the crisps. I was a little skeptical at first because I do not care for cornbread. Yes, I live in the South and do not like cornbread. (No, it's not a Northern thing because I know my Dad loved it!) But, these are really good! They taste almost like a cracker, not a chip. They are baked, not fried, so they are better for you! The crisps are available in original, (my favorite), honey, and jalapeno (Bubby's favorite). They are nice and crispy and would be great in dips.
The meal snacks are fantastic too and great for on the go! For the first time ever, they have meat and vegetables in one package ready to go! They start with ingredients from the farm, and slow roast them into a crunchy snack. These are available in flame grilled chicken, garden harvest chicken and herb roasted turkey, which is the one I tried. I really enjoyed it. It was literally a turkey meal in a bag! I think these would be good for college students, especially in care packages. Gotta keep them healthy, right?
What I think is absolutely fabulous about Farmer's Pantry is the fact that they give back and support our farming community. Farming is becoming an extinct profession. I come from a lot of farmers, especially dairy farmers. In 1935, there were 6.8 million farms. Today there are only 2 million. Besides using ingredients straight from the farm, which is keeping the farms in business, a portion of their proceeds are donated to organizations dedicated to helping our farmers, like Farm Aid, Farmland Trust, Veterans Farm, etc. Without our farmers, we would lose so much. We have to support them!

DIY Body Wrap

OK, this started as another one of those "Pinterest Experiments" to see if it would really work, and it actually did! I had read on Pinterest that you can do a body wrap at home wayyyy cheaper than at spas. All you need is lotion, plastic wrap and whatever body part you want to lose about .5 in on. Seriously. I did it on my stomach, because after 3 children, I have the "pooch". I hate the "pooch". I figured that this wouldn't hurt, so while Hubby was in Washington, I tried it. All you do is put lotion on the body part you are working on. It's preferable to have a lotion with something from the sea in it, like seaweed, kelp, etc, but not absolutely necessary. Put A LOT on. I mean to where it's not soaking in anymore. Then you wrap the body part in plastic wrap. You can either secure it with an ace bandage or do what I did and just tape it. Since I did it around my belly, I just taped it to itself and it stayed in place. Then you go to bed. Whe

On My Journey: Cataracts

-

Along with my entire family, I wear glasses.  I have for about 3 years now.  I had noticed about two months ago that my left eye was really bad.  I couldn't see anything out of it, just blurry blobs.  So,  I carried myself to the eye doctors, expecting to get a new prescription.  He dilated my eyes because my left eye failed all the tests.  Imagine my surprise when he tells me that at the age of 42, I have cataracts.  I couldn't believe it! He said this is extremely rare, but does happen.  I ended up leaving there with a referral to an eye surgeon instead of a prescription.  Now I'm waiting to go see the eye surgeon.  I'm a little nervous even though I know it's an easy,  routine surgery.  I will keep all you wonderful readers updated as this progresses!
