Creating your own protein bars is an excellent idea for so many reasons. My primary motivation is that these bars are high in protein. This grab and go item fits perfectly into a workout morning. Knowing that ingredients in your bar creates confidence in nutritional density. The no bake feature is an additional win. Finally, another compelling reason remains the cost savings versus spending $3 or more for a store bought choice.

Thoughts on HOME and FAMILY at www.nurturingmynest.com

Finding your people is serious business. Sometimes our people find us. Sometimes we have to say goodbye to a season and the people that we have loved. Sometimes we have to find new people. Sometimes we don't know what we are looking for in friendships. Sometimes we know that we need people to complete something deeply human in ourselves. To search for our people, we might ask ourselves these clarifying questions. Who am I looking for? What do I need in my people? When can I find my people? Where are my people? Why do I need people? How can I build my community of people? Choose with intention.
