Chevy Girl on the Go

03/21/2010 | 32 comments

I can’t explain the excitement I’ve felt all week long, waiting until Friday to meet with Chevy reps and pick up ‘my’ brand new Chevy Malibu!!

I’m participating in the Girlfriend Getaway for local North Texas bloggers.

Each blogger was given a beautiful new Chevy Malibu. This BEAUTY is all mine for the next 4 weeks!

I met with Chevy reps to sign paperwork and then all the bloggers headed outside to learn about the features of the Malibu.

 Starting Monday I will blog about my experience test driving the Malibu on the DFW Girlfriend Getaway website.  I’ll be sure to link to their site from my blog too.

Happy Driving!

 

October is definitely a very busy month for me.  I’ve been cross-training at work which means I have a bigger work load, until my coworker comes back from Maternity Leave. 

I’ve never been big on 100 cal snacks because I didn’t feel they kept me satisfied. In fact I could eat about 2 packs and still be hungry. That was the case until I’d heard of Vita tops & wondered what they were and how they tasted!  How could I get my hands on this product that every blogger seems to love?

Well, the nice people at Vitalicous sent me free samples to test taste and review.  Vitalicious has vitatops, muffins, mixes, cakes, brownies and coffee.  All products are 100 cals, 4-7g of Fiber, 4g of Protein, low fat, trans-fat free, no cholesterol and contain up to 15 vitamins & minerals.

My Thoughts

  • I like that Vitalicious  products can stay fresh for 5+ shelf days or store in your freezer up to 9 months.  I’ve been keeping mine in the freezer, also my way of not eating them up in a week.
  • Appleberry VitaTop was one of my favorite muffins. Although I didn’t taste the apple chunks, I did taste the blue berries and cranberries.

  • I loved the Chocolate VitaBrownie for all the walnuts it contained :)  Chris tried the brownie and didn’t care for the taste of it.  He said it tasted like a ”diet brownie”, too bland and too many walnuts for him.

  •  The Blueberry Vitatop was also delicious and it paired well with my blueberry yourt for breakfast!

Overall

 I like Vitalicious products and still have many tops and muffins to sample.  I recevied these samples for free and I would purchase them online. I like that they are not expensive and can be purchased by the dozen for $14-16.  So, basically your paying under $1.50 for each, which is pretty cheap in my book!

I’m hoping the ”Vitalicious Fairy” will send me their cakes and mixes to sample! :-)

Have you tried Vitalicious products, what’s your favorite top, muffin or cake?

(Vitalicious products are also available in stores like Whole Foods, Publix,  and Krogers. Please check their website for more stores.)

”Hit Me Baby One More Time”

britney-spears-1011

Britney I will see you tomorrow night!  Chris brother texted him yesterday asking ”Does Nicole want Britney tickets?”

I think Chris went deaf from my screaming…..Heck Yea I Do! Chris’ brother is interning at the Convention center and got me free tickets!

I’m taking my friend Jeremy b/c he always  gets tickets to events and takes me. I want to take him to something for a change.  I wish I could have gotten 1 more, but they were free, can’t complain.

Later…

Chris and I went grocery shopping tonight, but just for fruits and veggies.  I like hitting up Sack n Save where the produce is cheap yet really fresh.

grapes, apples, mango’s, bananas, bell peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, okra, tomatoes, onions, sweet potatoes, fresh cilantro.  Plus some Silk, canned pumpkin, coconut water and tomato sauce.

Giant Cucumber I must say.

I found this coconut water in the international section. I’ll let you guys know how it tastes. nicoles pics 1041

Chris thought this was funny and insisted I take a picture.

I wouldn’t eat that cereal, especially with a name like that. sorry

Guess what’s in my fridge?

Chobani fairy came to visit my fridge while I was at work.

Uhmmm…. Glad my oikos was not sold at Sack n Save.

I’m a Oikos lover but I’ll give them a taste test.  I think I have every flavor they make.  I’ll do a review of these later next week.

They are trying to convert me over with all these yummy looking flavors. ;-)

Thanks for the samples Morgan!

What flavor of Chobani do you like?  What should I try first?

Any Bloggers, in the Dallas area, for a blogger meet up Saturday. Please email me if your interested.
