sports drinks

we only drink sports drinks when it's really hot or we've worked up a sweat cleaning or something.

our brand of choice is powerade, but there were not any of the one's we liked at wal-mart last time so we got gatorade.

gatorade is not as good as powerade, most of their flavors suck & the ones that are OK have a weak flavor. the only good thing is they are 32^oz & powerade was reduced to 28 last year.

sport drinks are just sugar water with minerals to replace those that are lost in sweat, but it does seem to help. then again it could be all in our minds.

it's too hot!

the typical thought i have this time of year.

am considering moving into my refrigerator.

talenti gelato

wal-mart had some of the layers (like a gelato parfait) on a bit of a sale and we tried 4 of them.

salted caramel truffle, peanut butter vanilla fudge, chocolate cherry cheesecake & black raspberry vanilla parfait.

none were really good. and the chocolate cherry cheesecake had dark chocolate. which bothered my brother's stomach. i didn't notice it because i was distracted my the cherry. which is not one of my favorite flavors.

Your Birth Color is Yellow

You are a seeker of enlightenment in this life. You may not have found it yet, but you feel closer each day. You value clarity in thought, words, and action. You try to be a clear thinker and as straightforward with people as possible.

You are a warm and optimistic person. You have faith in yourself and in humanity. You think the world is basically good. You may be an optimist, but you don't have your blinders on. You are aware and alert to every emotion and event.

You believe that others have as much as a right to be a part of this world as you do. You highly value free expression. You are a reluctant but natural leader. You are fair and just. And when it's time to be decisive, you can act immediately.

things are different this year, but people are still going to be (and have already) set off firecrackers.

so stay safe, and take advantage of any sales the stores are having.

tosted coconut cheerios

it is a limited time flavor.

i don't really care for coconut, but my brother likes it. i got frosted cheerios to off set it.

very subtle toasted flavor, not much coconut. unlike the peach limited time cheerios i reviewed last year.

apple pie kit kat

one of the new flavors rumored to be coming out (for a limited time) this year. the previous birthday cake might have been one after all.

discovered on box of them at he impulse buy section at the checkout at wal-mart the other day. will continue to look for the others.

the apple one was disappointing. very mild flavor which didn't taste very much like apple pie. unfortunately whenever i burped, i tasted apple.
