What the Q?

I mean, what IS the Q!
You've probably heard me say something before about the Q, Shelf Reliance's monthly shipment program.

Perhaps you would like it as much as I do, if you knew more about it.



Pretty easy, right?

I have actually been spending less money on groceries by eliminating lots of waste that was happening before with spoiling food and neglected leftovers. No more opening a whole can of corn when I just need a handful. No more forgetting the fruit in the back of the fridge and throwing it out days after it's bought. 

I simply spend $25 less per week at the store, and set my Q budget at $100 each month!

I have been using more fruits and vegetables than ever because they are always ready to go and super convenient! THRIVE is like my own prep chef! Plus, my kids will eat just about anything freeze-dried, even things they normally wouldn't touch!

I think everyone should try it. For 3 months, give the Q a try, and see if you don't love it as much as I do!

It's also easy to sign up at the Platinum level of the Q Club, for free, if you sign up through a consultant! That means more great discounts and points towards free products.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have!

Sun Oven - It's getting hot!

What's a sun oven?
For as long as I can remember the summer time heat meant an end to using the oven! 
Turning on the oven makes the whole house hot! 
Even know, in my own house, I tend to avoid the oven like the plague when the temperatures outside are climbing... So, how can I make fresh bread, cookies, etc without turning on the oven?

 
This crazy contraption is called a Sun Oven.  

Seeing these always created flashbacks to youth camps and foil ovens.  Then I heard someone who actually owned one of these tell me how great it was and I knew I wanted one!

You know that the company or people who are contracted to sell these will tell you how great they work, but when someone you actually know has used it regularly there is just something extra to their recommendation that is so valuable!

I'm thinking this would be nice around the summer time AND on camping trips! Talk about a major fuel and heat saver!

The only thing you need is some sun shine and you can cook just about anything!




 


These retail for $324.99. Consultant priced at $281.21!

Peas please...

My kids won't eat "real" peas... but they love freeze dried peas!
Whatever works, I guess!
And these don't squish and make a huge mess! Yay!
