My Favorite Products That Make My Life Easier
I'm sure you probably know from today to Friday (11th) is Prime Day. If you remember my post about how I can keep this place up and running yearly, you know unfortunately Amazon is really the only way I can make that happen since I'm considered a 'mini' blogger. My sassy thoughts doth not jibe with sponsors, my following is small (which I love actually) so Amazon affiliate links are the only way I can hit that target. I will say that due to tariff pauses expiring at the end of day today, prices could go way up tomorrow (9th) so I would encourage you to buy today even though Prime Day doesn't end until the 11th. I know I will be. I'm going to share products I love and if you check 'em out and buy them or anything on Amazon once you click through, it'll help me keep the place jumpin'. Electric Spin Scrubber I can't begin to tell you the game changer this is especially for someone who isn't a clean freak. The last thing my mind but mor...
It definitely helped me out when I was needing a boost but not sure I'd have to have it again. The coconut water was a nice surprise but ultimately the sugar content is still more than I would want to have unless I purposely want a sugary drink, in which case I'd go for a cola or root beer.
ReplyDeleteThe hubs drinks Powerade and Gatorade a lot and every once in a while, if I've mowed the lawn on a really hot day, I'll drink a cup of it, especially if I feel my blood sugar dropping. I had a bit of heat stroke one time last year and it helped very quickly, so I like that we have it on hand. I like the lemonade kind and Gatorade has a Citrus Cooler in the summer that is quite tasty. I keep all these drinks on had for the garbage/recycle guys and it cracks me up how they each have their favorites. lol I'd be willing to give this kind a try, especially with the coconut water which is a neat twist.
ReplyDeleteI typically don't consume sports drinks, but my boyfriend does, especially during the summer. He suffered from sever heat stroke in the past and likes to have it on hand now. He seems to have a preference for Gatorade in a variety of flavours. I've consumed some of it in the past, usually in the summer after a long day out on the boat or when I'm hung over after consuming too many adult beverages the night before. I prefer Orange Gatorade, but I'll take what I can get when hung over. I will also cut it with 50% water, as I find it way too sweet to drink at full strength.
ReplyDeleteI can't drink any of the ades or bai. Something in them makes me physically ill. I guess I will stick with water and do my best to keep dehydration to a minimum. And I have tried straight coconut water and found it disgusting.
ReplyDeleteCan't stand the amount of sugar or the artificial flavors in sports drinks. They are handy when you are recovering from illness and years ago I switched to pedialyte, then more recently found a homemade recipe that gets the job done. It's a little orange juice, a little lemon juice, and a little non-sodium salt, all topped off with water. I can adjust the flavors based on how I feel and what I want to taste. Works great when I've spent too much time doing yard work. But sports drinks are so over-hyped and unless you are doing serious activity over a long period of time (more than an hour), you don't really need them.
