Colgate Optic White Toothpaste + Built in Whitening Pen

Recently I received a sample of the new Colgate Optic White Toothpaste with Built in Whitening Pen to try. I have to say I am VERY impressed. I let my husband try it, because being a coffee drinker, he has some staining. He went to the dentist a few weeks ago for a whitening and it didn't really do much..so I was unsure how this product would work. Plus he isn't big on putting things on his teeth and then just letting it sit. The best part about this product is that you put on the whitening gel and you don't rinse it off! Just go about your day and your teeth will get whiter, YES in 2 days! The second day of him using it I had already seen a difference and by 5 days, his teeth were at least 3 shades whiter, he and I were both SHOCKED! 

Just brush, whiten and go with the Colgate Optic White Soft Toothbrush + Built-In Whitening Pen. The Colgate Optic White Toothbrush has whitening cups, polishing bristles, and a cheek and tongue cleaner. It includes a built-in whitening pen that starts whitening teeth in just ONE day, up to five shades lighter. Experience the beautiful, bright smile you've always wanted when you brush with this medium bristle toothbrush.

You can purchase the Colgate Optic White Toothpaste + Built in Whitening Pen at most retailers, including Walmart for about $10! Great deal!

Jamba Juice NEW Protein Smoothies Are DELICIOUS!

Recently Jamba Juice has added 3 new smoothies to their already awesome lineup.
The new Protein Smoothies have at LEAST 28 grams of protein per serving. Perfect for pre and post workout, or just for when you are feeling like you need a boost.

When I was pregnant with Riley I wasn't able to eat much...I remember that everything was unappealing, so my Dr. suggested I add protein powder to anything I was able to drink. I tried it, in a glass of chocolate milk and within moments I felt so much better. Since then, I have always been a fan of getting enough protein. I didn't even know I wasn't getting enough until I had the chocolate milk and realized this was how I was supposed to feel!

My husband is always at the gym, 3 times a week, he is serious about a workout. He only does a few minutes of cardio, and the rest is on a machine, lifting weights or doing leg presses, squats, pull ups...he definitely gets a workout. Last week, after the gym, I took him to Jamba Juice where we both had the new Protein Smoothie, and he said not only did it taste great (it REALLY does!) but he felt a huge boost after drinking it. We will definitely be having these more often.

The new Protein Smoothie comes in 3 flavors:

Chocolate: This is one smoothie that you’ll be craving before and after your workout. Because you know what they say—a spoonful of chocolate and banana helps the medicine go down. In the most delightful whey.

Peanut Butter and Banana: Nothing goes together like peanut butter and bananas. They’re best friends. Compadres. Point is, there’s no tastier way to help get your daily dose of muscle-building protein.

Cookies 'n Cream: It’s packed with protein. It’s bursting with cookies. The bananas can barely be contained. In fact, there’s so much flavor screaming to get out, we considered developing titanium cups for safety. Then we discovered the straw is a release valve.

3 Ingredient Triple Berry Pie

DOLE frozen fruit is a necessity in our house. My boys eat frozen fruit like candy..and it's so good for them too, so I try to keep many packages on hand for all different reasons. We usually have pancakes or muffins in the morning before we start our home school work and I always throw some frozen DOLE berries in them, and usually after school we have a smoothie, and the frozen fruit is always a hit (Dole frozen pineapple pairs really well with kale and helps mask the flavor so even the pickiest kids eat it!). 

Here is the recipe for my EASY 3 Ingredient Triple Berry Pie. 

1 tub of Cool Whip
1 8oz can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 package DOLE frozen Mixed Berries
1 premade Graham Cracker Pie Crust. 

Using a blender, combine the berries (reserve some for garnish) and sweetened condensed milk until the berries are blended into the milk. Then, fold in the Cool Whip (reserve some for garnish). Pour into premade crust and refrigerate for 4 hours. 

Top with remaining fruit and Cool Whip and ENJOY!
