Healthy Clean eating can be affordable with #SimpleTruth

Are you ready to eat clean healthy and affordable? 

Thanks to Simple Truth at Fred Meyer/ Kroger you can do just that. 

Simple Truth products are free from 101 artificial preservatives and ingredients  and cover over 30 product categories including dairy, chicken, meats, snacks, produce, and even eggs. 

My husband and I attended an event this past week introducing us to Simple Truth products at one of the local Fred Meyer stores.

Local foodie and celeb Leigh Anne shared a wonderful Chicken Curry Cashew  Salad featuring Simple Truth products .

Fresh Ideas with Leigh Anne is a feature on the Fred Meyer website and is loaded with more wonderful recipes.
Leigh Anne was a blast to visit with and talk food with. We also met with local Fred Meyer reps to talk more about Simple Truth and easy meals that even the kids will enjoy. We sampled some amazing goodies from the Simple Truth line and learned about several local organic wineries , breweries, and even a local company creating unique hard ciders.

I was grateful that my husband joined me for the evening and tried the goodies along with me. Sometimes it is easier to introduce new things to the family with a little extra support.
We also got to finish up our Christmas shopping together and just enjoy each other's company.

Thank you to Fred Meyer/ Kroger for hosting this evening. We also received a wonderful selection of Simple Truth products to bring home and enjoy.
Stay tuned as we have a wonderful Simple Truth giveaway coming to the blog.

Crystal Deodorant: Have you tried it? #cbias

This past week I tried Crystal Deodorant, an all natural roll on.  

First thing I have to tell you I was unsure of the whole idea because I wear my deodorant instead of perfume and actually have matching body spray to go with all my deodorants, so I knew it would be a challenge.  I have been harvesting and canning  all kinds of produce over the last month and this past week was no exception, not only that I had something going on basically everyday last week; local Storytime, Mom meetings, youth group, homeschool co-op,  grape harvest, and homeschooling the boys in there too. 

Needless to say it was a crazy week and changing my deodorant for a week put added pressure on, a girl doesn't want to smell during any of the above activities. 

The first day I felt very self conscience about it, but as the week went on I was fine with it and actually was very surprised by how well it actually worked.  I didn't feel sweaty and better yet I didn't smell weird.

So the next thing to consider , the price. Without a coupon my regular antiperspirant is about $3.99 at Walmart. The Crystal Deodorant was $3.83 at Walmart and I am happy to say my little basic Walmart (Not a SuperCenter) carries it, BONUS.

I'm not sure if there are coupons available for this product but considering the benefits of an all natural product and the fact that it actually works well I would be ok buying it again even without a coupon.
