JANUARY GIVEAWAY
I am super excited about January's giveaway. Not only is this the PERFECT way to start the New Year, we will be awarding this gift to FIVE lucky readers. Are you curious???
Alright, I'll let you in on the secret. This month we are giving away Truvia Natural Sweetener. If you are like me, you are trying to eliminate a few extra pounds gained over the holidays. I have a wedding to attend in April and my goal is to shed 20 pounds. I have many miles to walk and calories to count in order to reach my goal.
I received a box of Truvia to try. I'll be perfectly honest. I LOVE the stuff. I'll confess, I am a sugar baby. I must have 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar with my morning coffee. I was a little hesitant to try Truvia and assumed it would taste like artificial sweetener. Not even close! Truvia has the look, feel and taste of sugar without the calories. I'll be talking more about Truvia throughout the month, but for now here are a few Truvia Facts you might enjoy...
- Truvia(tm) was recently featured on The Martha Stewart Show as one of "Martha's Finds."
- Truvia(tm) is leading the category of new stevia-based sweeteners with 60% marketshare.
- Truvia(tm) rebiana is now in several products to which consumers may not be aware: Vitaminwater10®, Sprite® Green(tm), Odwalla® juices, Nature's Splash®, True® Lemon Naturally Sweet and Hansen's® Natural Lo-Cal Juices.
- Truvia.com features several delicious and healthy recipes.
I will be featuring Truvia recipes throughout January and encourage you to try some as well.
