MET-Rx Big 100 Protein Bar Review
I am reviewing the MET-RX Big 100 Peanut Butter Cookie Dough protein bar in hopes that you will read my opinion in time to save your taste buds from a real pounding. This is by far the worst tasting protein bar I have ever half eaten. I will eat most anything if I know it is healthy -- and I was hungry this evening when it was time for my before bedtime snack, but I literally could not finish this ill flavored styrofoam. There was no hint of peanut butter or cookie dough. I think the MET-Rx marketing department must have made that up as an afterthought.

Cameron's Breakfast Protein Shake Recipe

Eating smaller but more frequently just makes sense. It keeps your metabolism running strongly and helps your body maintain energy at an even level throughout the day. Read More...
In Search of Lions
I read an AZ Central article back in October that talked about how eight lion statues were set to be removed from a park at Westgate City Center because they are "anatomically correct". Oh the horror! Evidently some uptight Phoenician (or maybe "Glendalian"...is Read More...
Casa Grande...6 Degrees Cooler than Phoenix
Saturday evening went out to Casa Grande where my mom was playing host to a few of her new neighbors. CG will grow like a weed in the coming years but right now it feels like you're out in the middle of nowhere. Lots of farmland and not a whole lot to Read More...

Beverage Bottle Thingy
My Rubbermaid beverage bottle thingy saved my butt this morning. I guess a little background is needed. See I make a protein shake in the morning which goes in the beverage bottle thingy and then I drink it when I get to work. I carry it my backpack along Read More...
