I was excited to receive a free sample of this PowerBar Plant Protein Bar as I often grab a protein bar on my way out the door when I'm heading to work in the morning. I have found some protein bars to be very bland and almost chalky so I was delightfully surprised at just how flavourful this almond, sea salt and dark chocolate flavoured bar was. Just the right amount of sweet with just a hint of salt. I also liked the consistency as some protein bars are too thick and chewy.
Another aspect of the PowerBar Plant Protein Bar that I really liked is that I never felt I needed to snack at all before lunch. With other bars I have tried, I found that I was getting hungry again not long after eating one, therefor adding unnecessary calories to my day. I was pleased that was not the case at all with PowerBar Plant Protein Bar.

I was happy to receive a free sample of this PowerBar Plant Protein Bar as I often have protein bars for breakfast on my way to work. I usually love anything with peanut butter so this flavour sounded especially delicious but you never know as some other protein bars I've tried have been very bland. I was delightfully surprised at just how delicious the dark chocolate peanut butter flavoured bar was. A perfect blend of peanut butter and chocolate without being too sweet.
Another aspect of the PowerBar Plant Protein Bar that I really liked is that I was comfortably full right up to lunchtime. With other protein bars I have tried, I found myself snacking before lunch which was adding unnecessary calories to my day. This, thankfully, was not the case at all with PowerBar Plant Protein Bar.

I received a free sample of MOTT'S FRUITSATIONS +FIBRE in the Tropical flavour to taste test. First, I have to say that all 3 of my kids enjoyed the the fact that it was a quick and delicious breakfast. I enjoyed the tropical flavour and so did my 2 teens but my 9 year old preferred the raspberry flavour.
I love having a new idea for a super quick breakfast that I feel good feeding to my kids. They love that it's so easy and doesn't take a lot of time to prepare or eat. The fact that it is healthy is just a bonus!

I received a free sample of Mott's Fruitsations* +Fibre Raspberry flavour for my family to try. We are already applesauce fans but we'd usually have it more as a snack during the day instead of at breakfast. I have to say, I was thrilled for a new breakfast idea that is healthy and quick as our mornings are always so hectic. There are definitely days where 1 or more of us forgets to eat breakfast or can't be bothered to make something to eat. Now there is no excuse!
All 3 of my kids ages 9, 15 and 17 loved the delicious raspberry flavour, which is great because I know they will eat them again. It's not always easy finding something so quick and easy that ALL the family enjoys. Besides breakfast, they will also pack them in their lunch for school. Bonus!

I used Le Petit Marseillais Extra Gentle Shower Crème in Orange Blossom during my shower this morning. Immediately after opening it up I loved the scent - not too strong yet strong enough to make me feel fresh and clean when I used it. I don't like runny body wash so was pleased that it was nice and thick on my loofah and it lathered up perfectly. I will likely purchase this product to use again once this bottle runs out. -

The entire family was eager to test out the Voortman Strawberry Banana Wafers we received to review. None of us had tried this particular flavour of wafer cookie before and it sounded like a great combination of flavours. Not one of us was disappointed! Delicious flavour that is different from other brands and just the right amount of sweetness. The perfect snack for the teens and young one to take to school or for my hubby and I to bring to work. My whole family gave these a big thumbs up! -

The family members who like coconut were excited to receive the Voortman Coconut Cookies to try. They both enjoyed the taste of them very much but found that the texture wasn't favourable. My husband described it as "stale" even though we knew that we had just opened the package so there was no way they could actually be stale. Based on their initial response to these cookies, I don't think we'll be buying these ones again. -

The entire family thoroughly enjoyed the Voortman Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies we received to sample and review. They worked well in lunches for the adults, the teens and elementary-age kids. They were also requested as a dessert after supper to dunk in milk. It didn't take long for these cookies to disappear! Definitely a new favourite in my household. -

When we received the Voortman Vanilla Wafers to sample, the whole family was excited to give them a try. My teen boys tried one to see if they liked them and their immediate reaction was to ask if they can take them to school the next day as a snack and my 8 year old daughter probably would have eaten the entire package then and there if I would have actually let her - she loved them! Even my husband was a fan as he said they weren't too sweet (he has noticed another brand that we have bought is way too sweet for his liking). He mentioned that the vanilla flavour was more prominent than the sweetness of the wafers. All-in-all, these were a huge hit! -
