And just like that – you blinked and the weekend is over. Bleck.
I’d like to slow time down just a wee bit, especially during these summer months!
More hiking with friends, please!
So I’ve got another list today. And a fun giveaway. But lists come first.
I’M PRO….
love.
children.
Travis (Happy Anniversary, babe!!).
arm wrestling.
Tolkien.
fitness.
sugar.
homeschooling.
coffee.
Colorado.
North Carolina.
All states, really.
humor.
sleep.
life.
koala bears.
Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.
God, but not religion.
And (of course you saw this one coming), I’m pro Probar.
So when they wanted to be involved with BLEND 2012 (and hopefully BLEND 2013), I squealed a little.
Even before my interaction with this company, I bought their product regularly.
You see, I’m a “bar mom” (not to be confused with a “bar hopping mom” – I don’t have the money to attain the wardrobe needed for that). Henry and Clara eat one nutrition bar a day.
The reason?? (besides the fact that they love them): MINIMAL CLEAN-UP!! You hand the kid a half unwrapped bar, they eat down to the wrapping, you pull the wrapper off, they finish the bar. No muss, no fuss.
More so than that, I feel like I’m giving my kids something nutritious (less Mommy guilt)! When shopping for a bar, these are my requirements:
- Low sugar/Low Glycemic
- Minimally processed
- Plant based
- Natural, whole food ingredients
Probar’s Fruition line meets all of these! In fact, ALL of the Probar lines meet my requirements.
Gluten Free Oats and Bran!!
They also get ME through the day as well! My favorite flavor? PEACH. SO, SO good and not too sweet!
Probar fueled our hike yesterday! Laura –Strawberry, Me – Lemon, Heather – Cran-Raspberry
Thank you, Chris, for sending these! They’re nearly gone – we need more! ;)

Strawberry sounds really good. I just started this natural kick. I drink a protein drink a day and have been looking for good tasting bars to get me through the day, kinda hard when you work in a grocery store and you are constantly hungry with food at you fingertips all day. Hope I get this so I can try them out and hopefully buy them.
Oh wow, probably blueberry ! These look greeeeat. GF. Win!
Tweeted (@heatha262)!
Cherry!
Oh gosh, it’s a cross between peach and blueberry! Probably blueberry! I loved this post. Great pics!
I’ve never tried these bars before. I would love to try the peanut butter chocolate chip.
I tweeted!
Superfood SLAM sounds good.
And great post :) i love it when you do the list posts
Peanut Butter!

YUM (and thank you!)…I would love to try the SuperFood Slam or PB Chocolate Chip – they have way more flavors than I thought they did! Cool company too with great ingredients. Thanks sharing the wealth, friend! :D

I would love to try double chocolate or the PB one!

Yum yum! I’ve gotta go with the blueberry!
I tweeted about the gievaway
I’m pro Jesus! I am always trying to recreate bars that are nutritious for my little ones to like too, but am not always successful! I spent waaaay too much money for fresh cherries at the market this morning for my girls and me, so I’d like to try that flavor first ;). Thanks for the opportunity!
and I tweeted! :)
Hmm I’m going to change up my normal choice and say I want to try the cherry!
So hard to pick! Hmmm, I’m thinking cherry. It’s cheery. ;) Thank you!!

Chocolate orange! Yummy
More please!! I loved that cran-raspberry flavor, but since I had to be nice and share with Kirk, I obviously need more!! ;)
Had Soooooo much fun yesterday, thanks for hanging with us!!!
Chocolate orange sounds decadent! But we’d have to try peach first as that’s my son’s current fruit obsession. He also loves a good bar!
That was such a fun hike! I can’t wait to do it again. :)
Thanks for sharing those bars with us – the lemon was delish!
Blueberry or Chocolate orange sound delicious! I’d love to win!
Holy Moly you have the most beautifulest family ever. Not going to lie, that Chobanifit shirt probably looks better on Travis than on you. HAHA JK! Also, you back muscles are rockin’.
I’d love to try Chocolate Orange or Cherry.
i love the peach one, so good! i should win cause i am married to a PRO, nough said.
;-)
youre a sexy thang too!
Tweeted!
That’s hard to choose! Probably chocolate orange, since I like a little chocolate in the afternoon!
Mmm. All the flavors sound delish but I think I’d want to try cherry or lemon first!
i would love to try cran-raspberry! that sounds wonderful!
I haven’t tried their “fruition” line, but think I would like them better than the Double Chocolates I have. I like that they’re so fewer calories (160 vs. 380!) I would first try the blueberry, then the strawberry, then the lemon, etc… :)
Blueberry please!!! Love the baby butt shot…so cute and dimply! My daughter’s is the same. I can’t get over it!
I would love to try the cherry flavor!!
Tweeted your giveaway link too! Thanks again! :-)
chocolate orange & peach both sound ahhhh-mazing!
Superfood Slam sounds amazing – packed with so many superfood fruits & veggies in one bar! Thank you for the great giveaway!
Chocolate orange sounds good. I didn’t realize they were the same company that makes Halo bars. I really like those, although I can only find them at Whole Foods.
no need to enter me—Im just here for the love.
your posts make me smile and your priorities are so so in place.
xoxo
I feel the same way about you and your blog, Carla! You’re my mentor (whether you like it or not!)
