GNC Recovery Drink Review

By At the Fence
Hi Neighbors!

We are having a great day here At the Fence and are looking forward to visiting with you for awhile.  Today we are trying GNC's PHENOM Coconut Water.  Now, I am sure some of my neighbors are asking, "What is Coconut Water?". Good question, I was wondering about that myself, so I have done a little research.  First I will tell you what Coconut Water is not!  It is not water infused with coconuts or special water for watering coconut palms.  Coconut water is a the liquid found in the cavity of a coconut when you crack one open.  This liquid is absorbed as the coconut matures, so you need to get coconut water from young green coconuts.

PHENOM is made from 100% natural coconut water.  It contains no artificial flavors, preservatives or added    sugars.  Not only that, but it is low in calories, has zero cholesterol and it has been infused with GNC  power for more benefits.

I am sure my neighbors are wondering, "How does it taste?". Well, I received the PURE PHENOM Hydro which is 100% Natural Coconut Water (from concentrate) with added electrolytes for maximum hydration.  Next was Pineapple Punch PHENOM Mega V 100% Natural Coconut Water with added vitamins and electrolytes.  Last was the Orange Guava Passion PHENOM Mega V also 100% Natural Coconut Water with added vitamins and electrolytes. PHENOM comes in 7 different flavors.  The result of the taste tests!  They taste like coconut.  I have to confess I personally am not a big fan of coconut and yes, I did sample them, but my husband on the other hand loves coconut.  Out of the three I received, his favorite was the PURE, followed by the Pineapple Punch.  So for the recovery drink review, I would have to say if you want a healthy drink for replenishing your active body, be sure to try the PHENOM 100% Natural Coconut Waters from GNC.

Looks like the liquid that comes from a Coconut!
With my active family, that plays racquetball 3 times a week, volleyball almost every day, when the weather permits, along with other activities, PHENOM would great to have around.  When you sweat, your body loses important electrolytes, in particular potassium and sodium. In order to replenish your body and properly rehydrate, you should drink electrolyte-rich beverages. Because coconut water is an excellent source of electrolytes, it makes an excellent after workout recovery drink.

If you have ever tried PHENOM before leave a comment telling us what you thought!

Disclosure:I received 3 PHENOM  100% Natural Coconut Waters for review purposes.  All quotes are taken from the PHENOM email or website.  All thoughts and opinions are mine.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

By At the Fence
Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

By At the Fence
When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

 Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June.
