Astounding Products!


welcome to Astounding Products! the part of this blog where I recommend stuff (not always actual "products" that I really like that you should check out too!

Fuze! this stuff is delicious!! it's basically like propel, but I like this better. it's all natural, I believe, and it's mostly water with 5% juice. It's fruity and delicious, and the kind I have is 20 calories per bottle and 100% dv of Vitamin C, maybe 200% actually because 100% was for just one serving.
Try it!






Spicy Nacho Doritos! Oh my goodness, these are so addicting! These are definitely not 20 calories per bag and probably don't have any nutritional benefits, but they're just really good, and you should eat some!








Supreme 90 Day System! Now this works pretty good! Tom can be annoying, though. Saying "a couple more" when you have 10 left, and making you think you're done when you have 20 minutes left isn't fun the first time, but anyway. It's basically your cheaper rip off of P90X... I'm sure they got most if not all of their exercises from P90X. I'm doing these dvds just to complement my running and I can definitely tell a difference in my abs, back, and arms. I think I would see even better results if I did the whole protein/clean eating thing with it, but yeah. I would definitely recommend this plus running for anyone trying to get in shape!

Pandora! One of the best things ever! You can create radio stations based on a genre, artist, or even a favorite song. Pandora will give you a stream of awesome music and you can thumbs-up or thumbs-down them, and even click "I'm tired of this track" and they won't play it for a certain amount of time. The best part is that it's free, so why not?



The Voice! Probably my new favorite show... it's awesomeness. It comes on NBC on tuesdays and wednesdays at 9 maybe? or maybe it's tuesday at 9 and wednesday at 8. I think that's it...I never pay attention, plus I miss it half the time so I just watch the reruns on E!. anyway, there's only 2 weeks left, which stinks. but watch it and then watch next year too!







I hope you enjoyed the first edition of Astounding Products! see you next time!

free day

today was a rough day, but it was my free day of the week so I got to make a new layout.
shout out to Color Scheme Designer 3Nova who introduced me to it, and this texture because I've used it a billion times!

I know, I know

yeah my blog looks stupid right now, but I promise I'll make it look better on a day where I'm not extremely busy or going places 2 hours earlier than I'm supposed to. I can probably do it Thursday...so be back then. Until now you may want to check out some blogs on my stalk list who actually have it together. go!

Bush's Baked Beans!

Last week my family went to dollywood for the bajillionth time, and this time we decided to visit the Bush's Beans visitor center, and let me tell you, it's dang awesome! if you're ever in Chestnut Hill, TN (near Pigeon Forge) go there! it's one of my favorite places I've ever been. they have a general store, (a lot like Cracker Barrell's general store, if you've ever been there) a museum, and a cafe. The museum was really cool, the first thing we did was go to the bathroom, and dude, they have the nicest bathroom I have ever seen in my life. Then we watched a couple videos that were well-made, then we went through the museum. all the graphics and stuff were very nice and attractive, and there was plenty of stuff in there that would interest almost anyone. there was a lot of stuff for the kids--including a coloring station where you can draw on plain paper or color coloring sheets. Something very cool they also had was a photo booth where you take a picture in front of a green screen and then pick your background (about 4 to choose from and they're all bean-related). They'll print out up to 4 for you, free of charge. They might charge once the place gets more popular, but it'll probably be a dollar per print, not bad.

The cafe was great, too! The food was unbelievably cheap! About half the price of Olive Garden (my wallet is still sore from the last time I went there) and of course they have beans on the menu. They also have a bunch of different sandwiches including philly cheesesteak, grilled cheese, burgers, and BLTs. The servers were very friendly and fast!

So if you're ever in east tennessee, go there. The end!
