Black Belt Balm
*Ownership of a black belt not required for purchase* Check it out online here: BlackBeltBalm.com Really unique alternative to popular and often highly chemically based sore muscle rubs out there. It's good to have one that you don't have to "worry" about the ingedients being something horrible that might eat your skin off overnight. Black Belt Balm is apparently made … [Read more...] about Black Belt Balm
Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
"What's lucuma?!" My friend asked while we were sharing this bar of chocolate today. Embarassingly I had to admit that I didn't know, but it was fun to watch her eyes bug out when I said I didn't know. Well - now we BOTH know, because inside the wrapper was more info about the included sundried lucuma powder in the chocolate as well as the goldenberries and some very … [Read more...] about Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
Sometimes dried figs are like hard rocks, testing the structural integrity of your teeth and dentalwork. Not so with these - the Spanish Pararero figs are unbelieveably soft and slightly chewy with thin skins I didn't even notice. Just enough to hold all the crunchy seeds inside really. The figs have the consistency of a very soft carmel which is further enhanced by the … [Read more...] about ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
Hario Skerton Coffee Grinder (Manual)
I love this stupid little thing. It even makes really good espresso grounds. The hand crank means your ears are never assaulted by that terrible high pitched grinding whine of a coffee grinder first thing in the morning. Sit there and half-asleep turn the crank slowly and there's barely a sound at all as the beans are precisely crushed between the ceramic grooved disks. … [Read more...] about Hario Skerton Coffee Grinder (Manual)
Under Armour Women’s HeatGear Short Sleeve V-neck T-shirt
I am crazy about these shirts, purchased one on a whim to see if there was anything to the hype about Under Armour HeatGear and was happy to see that the acclaim is warranted. Yes, it wicks away sweat and keeps you cooler - we train in the middle of the day with no shade, and we train hard, this shirt, even in black, made a huge difference. Not to mention that the rotated … [Read more...] about Under Armour Women’s HeatGear Short Sleeve V-neck T-shirt
Tropical Traditions Coconut Flour
1 Organic Coconut Flour - 2.2 lbs. I can't say enough great things about this coconut flour - seriously... this is the key ingredient in so many of my favorite recipes from Primal Blueprint and the lynchpin in so many of my own variants and originals. I've tried other brands of coconut flour and have only been disappointed, sorry, Bob's Red Mill, still love you … [Read more...] about Tropical Traditions Coconut Flour
Miramonte Alaskan Pink Salmon 7.5 OZ
This is really really nice high quality canned salmon - normally I like to buy red coho salmon - but was talked into trying this by a friend of mine who owns a local independent health food store. He was right - this is great stuff. Granted it is very very natural, so if you are squeamish about things like skin and bones in your canned salmon you may wish to give it a pass. … [Read more...] about Miramonte Alaskan Pink Salmon 7.5 OZ
Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil
Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil This is one of those products that once you start using it, you find that you use it EVERY DAY. And its actually the only cooking oil I have in the pantry at the moment (dark sesame oil doesn't count - that's a flavoring additive). I was originally introduced to Tropical Traditions by an older friend from the dog park who … [Read more...] about Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil
Reusable Produce Bags from Flip and Tumble
I have the Williams Sonoma version of these incredibly useful bags - which came with a small nylon carrying bag - they all fit inside when folded and you can take it with you to the farmer's market or tucked inside a reusable shopping bag for when you go to the regular grocery store. No more of those obnoxious plastic produce bags gunking up the crisper drawer! No more … [Read more...] about Reusable Produce Bags from Flip and Tumble
