Private Selection Taste of Summer Bzz Campaign

I got to be a Buzz Agent for Private Selection Taste of Summer Campaign.  It was an awesome campaign.  First I got a bag of cracked pepper chips.  These were very good, sturdy, not too greasy, can stand up to dip.  Then I got the Angus Ground Beef.  This was excellent.  The quality and freshness was very good.  We got cherry pie for dessert.  Soo fresh!  Flakey crust, fresh cherries, not too sweet, very very good.  I totally recommend Private Selection products, available at Kroger!

Still Alice by Lisa Genova

Still Alice by Lisa Genova was an interesting read.  I finished it about a month ago.  This is a book about a woman Dr. Alice Howland, a psychology professor at Harvard.  She is out jogging one day and forgets how to get home.  Somehow manages to find her way home and chalks it up to menopause "forgetfulness".  She doesn't tell anyone just yet.  She travels a lot for work and does public speaking.  It gets harder and harder to do.  Rapidly she declines, then finally a diagnosis, early onset Alzheimers.  She's barely 50.  This book breaks your heart for not only her but her husband and daughters.  She is able to laugh at herself sometimes, but ultimately this is a sad circumstance to be in.  This book haunted me for days.  I learned a lot about alzheimers, how it progresses, how it affects families and lives of those that are affected.

Mio Liquid Water Enhancer

I recently was able to get a free sample of this off of Facebook.  I got Fruit Punch flavor.  There are several others to choose from:  Berry Pomegranite, Mango Peach, Sweet Tea, Strawberry Watermelon.  I think they run about $4 each, for 24 servings.  You just add a squirt to iced water, stir and it's ready to go. 

I am enjoying it as I write this and plan on buying it when I run out of my free sample.  It'll be great in the summer, or to add to a water bottle.  It's 0 calorie, sugar free.
