Trader Joes Brown Rice

I am not much of an instant rice girl, I like to make my own rice but I got a box of the Trader Joe's Brown frozen rice (on a recommendation from a friend), and I have to say it is pretty good and the best part is that it takes only 3 minutes! There are 3 bags per box and one bag is just enough for my family of four (remember my kids do not have big portions, nor do I). It is a little under $3. I don't use it all the time just when I need a quick meal and don't feel like waiting for over 20 min to cook rice. I suggest you try it! I will post other favorites since this is my favorite store to shop at!

The Shack by William P Young

This is one AMAZING book and I recommend this to everyone. I will tell you it is a pretty hard book to get through the first few chapters (emotionally) but the story that Mack tells when he meets God is so touching and leaves you looking at your own faith for more of God. That is all I will say, so please if you get the chance read this book. If you want to know more about this book go here.

One of my resolutions this year is to read at least 6 books, that could be nothing to some people or a lot to others but to me who has very little time to even blog or check emails or find time for myself that is a good amount for me. I hope I can get through more than 6 but we will see. I am already on my next book Dear John by Nicholas Sparks, only because the movie is coming out soon and I want to read it before I see it since its been on my nightstand now for 2 years. I hope everyone finds a great book they like and at least reads one this year.
