Game On - Snacking Made Easy with Blue Diamond Almonds




Snacking should be easy and that is why I like using Blue Diamond Almonds. Especially now that they have such a great squad of novel flavors and some are truly exciting like the Wasabi & Soy Sauce version from their Bold line - these Blue Diamond Almonds will wake up your mouth. Seriously -KAPOW. I decided to use them to wake up some fish. The side dish is couscous and spinach -hey I bet a few almonds would have livened that up too!



One thing I really love about a game feast is there are no holds barred and I am the referee so anything goes. My goal was a variety of things that went well with almonds and I was provided with two distinct flavors ~ the aforementioned Wasabi & Soy Sauce and also Blue Diamond Smokehouse. (Thanks Blue Diamond Almonds!)
Something about working with almonds makes me think healthy and I thought strawberries would go well with almonds and I was so right.
A little game changing fact - did you know almonds can help with cholesterol issues as they help raise HDL (healthy) and lower LDL (lousy) levels?


One of my favorite snacks anytime is cake - especially chocolate cake - so I decided to spike a few pieces with Blue Diamond Smokehouse Almonds. I watched a cooking show and learned that mixing sweet and savory is very trendy. It is also very tasty and I had fun making little hearts with the almonds.

Of course they are great right out of the can too :D  - Do you have any fun almond ideas?

Old Factory Candles ~ Candle Experience and Tutorial

Image

I chose the Fresh and Clean set which included Olive Blossom, Fresh Linen and Lemongrass and I started with the Lemongrass. Each candle is hand-poured in the USA and made with fragrant oils and soy wax. They come in cute little 2 ounce jars with lids and Pauline (Customer Love Specialist - great job title) sent me some little tips to get the most out of these great smelling candles. Here's a few helpful tips on how to get the most out of your candle experience: 1. We recommend burning your candles for 1 to 3 hours at a time, and then letting them cool an hour before burning again. We've found that this helps to extend the burning life of the candle. 2. We've carefully formulated these candles so they are pleasing to smell but not overpowering. These candles burn great individually in small rooms, or you can burn 2 at a time in a larger room. We've grou
