I am now a member of the Thrive Life Family!

I have mentioned many times before that I am a big fan of Thrive Foods.  I have been a fan of the Thrive Life Company and especially the food for quite a long time.  In the past, I have sent many of my friends and readers to Thrive.  After all this time, I have finally decided that I want a piece of that Thrive Pie!  J  I am happy to announce that I have joined the Thrive Life Family and I am now an Independent Thrive Life Consultant!
Why Thrive?
I’ll admit it…I’m a compulsive shopper.  If I run to the grocery store to pick up a gallon of milk, you can bet I’m coming home with not just the milk, but also a gallon of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, maybe a couple of candy bars that were on sale 2/$1.  Not to worry though…I snagged the 2 liter bottle of Diet Coke to offset all that sugar! 
I can’t count how many times this has happened.  What should have been a relatively inexpensive trip to the store, quickly spiraled out of control!  Not only did I end up spending WAY more $$ than I should have, I’m gonna’ be lying in bed all night with a sugar buzz and a ton of heartburn.
It’s time to change my way of thinking.  I am going to create my own “Home Store”.  I want to be able to run downstairs rather than to the grocery store when I need something at the last minute.
Up to this point, we have done a decent job of stocking our cold storage room, but almost everything in that room is perishable!  I’m tired of having to worry about expiration dates or spoiled food.
I have chosen Thrive foods as my go to source to build my home store.  Thrive doesn't just do the basics.  They produce all the raw ingredients necessary to create some of the best recipes! 
It’s November, I really, really want strawberries to top my shortcake.  I dare you to compare the strawberries you find during the off-season at your grocery store versus Thrive Freeze Dried Strawberries.  You will quickly find that there is no comparison!  Thrive Berries are superior in every way.
I am quickly learning that regular canned foods from the grocery stores are a bad idea for our family.  We have always purchased canned food, just in case.  We don’t necessarily like canned foods.  We don’t eat canned foods…we just purchase them to take up space on our shelves…again…Just in case. 
We are truly wasting money by not eating what we store, because we don’t store what we eat.  It is time that we reallocate our monthly grocery budget to purchase more of the shelf-stable Thrive foods that we enjoy. 
As I continue to build my home store with Thrive Foods, I will show you the difference with each and every recipe we create.
