Love With Food: June

This is one of my last ever Love With Food boxes... Which is really sad because I've loved this subscription!
This was a good box to begin the end on though!

Of the protein bars I've tried, this has been the best one.  I like the flavor of the peanut butter and sea salt, but the dry mushy consistency just bothers me from all protein bars.  Also, I don't feel like I need 15g of protein in the mornings, thats a lot!

Cookies!  I love cookies! This traditional teatime Shortbread cookie was a nice little treat to have, especially since I have just recently started drinking coffee and tea!

This You Love Fruit Mango fruit leather was a really interesting product to be included in this box!  I like that it was a sweet, yet still pretty healthy option!

There wasn't exactly anything special about this Sinfully Thin Blue Corn Popcorn, but that's not to say it was bad!  I finished the whole bag and thought it was a nice snack to include.

Hummus usually isn't my favorite, but I wanted to give this a try!  It had a really good flavor and I was filled up long before I finished the whole tube.  I don't generally like hummus because of the baby food consistency, but the flavor of this was good enough that I got past it!


I had gotten out of the habit of eating dried fruit, but these Snapz Apple Crisps reminded me how much I like it!  As is with all dried fruit, it was actually crispy or crunchy, but it wasn't supposed to be, and they had a nice flavor, so I approve!

I'm not usually crazy over pretzels, but the crisps idea is a cool concept!  This was a cool concept, and I've seen these at Walmart so they are easily reachable, which makes them a nice addition to the box.

I love Starburst candies, and these were like Starburst on steroids!  The flavor was amazing, and just tart enough without being to sour, and the consistency wasn't too hard or sticky.  They were just perfect, I approve!

Let's Talk...

I feel so bad, I have been such a flake with posting recently and the past month is when I should have been really focused on getting out content, because.... My summer classes started this week. And they are intense. Like, more so than I expected and I'm only a week in. Also, I just got my Summer schedule for the daycare I work at, and instead of my normal 9:30-5:30, I was switched to  6:00-12:30 ...  That is a huge difference, I've never gotten up that early in my life!  It is a lot better in some ways because I now have my full days free, but it's a difficult sleep schedule to get used to.   As a result, I've been spending my mornings at work, and my evenings doing homework, or attempting to have a social life...  This is my last Summer before college after all, so I want to have fun!  But it just makes things more difficult when I need to be in bed early for work, balance homework, and then there is this blog. I love having this...

2014-2015 Plum Paper Planner!

This is my new  Plum Paper Planner , and is most definitely one of my favorite possessions right now!  It came packaged like this...  I got  this  design, and added on an extra six months, making it an 18 month planner.  That was the really cool thing about this company, everything is customizable.  You can get your name and monogram on certain planner designs for free, you can add extra months like I did, add extra notes pages, budget pages, and more!  The standard planner with an extra six months was $48.75, which was pretty expensive... but it was a Christmas present, and will last me through the first year of college, so I could justify it! It has tabs on the side, which are laminated and reinforced  One of the first pages in the planner is a full 2015 planner, and on the next pages a 2016 calendar.  Each month begins with two note pages, which...
