You Won’t Believe This New Fast Food Packaging!

When I first started this blog (7 years ago), I had no clue what an adventure it would be. I had no idea that anyone besides my own friends and family would read what I wrote. I certainly never knew that my investigations would inspire some of the largest companies in the world to change their ingredients and become more transparent. I was shocked when I investigated the food I was eating and saw what was really in it. And once I realized the food that I was eating, wasn’t actually real food but full of processed chemicals, my health began to soar! Reading ingredient lists and knowing what’s in your food is one of the most important things you can do to protect your health.  When we ask what’s in our food – companies should tell us. Period. We all deserve to know exactly what we are eating. That’s why I was pumped to hear what the new restaurant chain The Organic Coup  is doing.

Good morning, friends! And a very happy Monday to you! I love a good  High Low High  blog post, so here’s a recap of our weekend. It shares both the high and low points from it.

Farewell to our island days for now! We will be back this summer. Our final day at Bald Head was warm and sunny again. I made a lovely whipped banana oatmeal with some melty Peanut Butter and Co Smooth Operator. SO GOOD! By mid-morning, Thomas took Mazen to the driving range and mom and I went on a long beach walk. I finished up by walking up and down our street until the boys came home listening to a podcast. We had a late lunch – more sammies – and then headed to the beach for the afternoon. This sweet boy makes friends so easily. I think he had 10 friends throughout the week. It’s such a blessing since he doesn’t have a sibling to play with, and Bald Head was crawling with kids on spring break. We headed back to the house for showers to discover that the power was out on half the island! So random. With the sun still up it wasn’t too much of a big deal, although I ran out of hot water for my shower. We went to the BHI Club for cocktail hour by the fire pit and live music
