Car-friendly clean snacks on the go Wow it's hard to believe we are in the middle of summer. After truly taking almost 5 days off to spend time with just my husband and a little trip away with the kids in those 5 days we put over 1,000 miles on the truck meaning we spent a lot of time in the car which meant we had to options plan ahead or let all our hard work go by the waste side. Well I can tell you I follow the 80/20 rule while traveling. Meaning yes I did enjoy some bread while out for dinner or a cocktail but for 80% of the time we kept it clean. I truly believe it starts in the car and planning ahead for just the simple snacks. I know in the past road trips meant stopping every 2 hours to use the bathroom and also grab some junk food for the road. This time was different no that's not to say the kids did not get a special snack and also juice as a treat. For sure invest in a thermal bag for your snacks on the go. WATER!!-Your body is composed of about 60% water. The functions of these bodily fluids include digestion, absorption, circulation, creation of saliva, transportation of nutrients, and maintenance of body temperature. With that being said it will cut down on cravings and keep you full longer. Next what to pack in your cooler? single servings of almond butter apples cottage cheese single servings string cheese homemade grandola rice cakes homemade trail mix quest protein bars (in a pinch) shakeology celery (any kind of fresh veggies) whole wheat crackers almonds walnuts Crap to avoid -"low fat" yogurt with fruit added -most "protein bars" -anything with more then 5 ingredients -anything that can sit in your car for a week and not need a -cooler and still be good to eat. At the end of the day its not whether or not you were a 100% spot on with eating clean but rather the memories created. Life is short spend it with those that matter the most and to be able to give loved ones around you the best version of yourself means eating healthy. Try the 80/20 rule of thumb the next time you fill your gas tank up and set out for a road trip.

Mural Description Beautiful pink flowers line this canopy covered path. Painting. © Jon Rattenbury/artlicensing.com Materials MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY We strive to help you choose the right material for your wall mural project. Our products are designed to work on ideally prepared surfaces, preferably smooth walls with a high-quality paint and primer. While we do offer materials compatible with varying wall surface types, some paints may inhibit adhesion of peel-and-stick products, and some wall textures may not provide enough surface area to stick; a combination of those two make it even trickier. There are endless combinations of wall paint and wall textures out there and we can’t test all of them. If you're unsure, we recommend ordering swatches of our materials to test adhesion prior to installation. If you believe your wall surface may be a problem, please consider our pasted products, UltraStik™ (pre-pasted) and ProStik™ (requires paste), for a more universally compatible installation or take the necessary steps to properly prepare your wall surface as described in detail below. Modern Paint Formulations: Some modern wall paints can make self-adhesive (peel and stick) murals more challenging to install. Washable, durable, low-VOC and No-VOC paints may contain additives which can inhibit proper mural adhesion. Proper cleaning and dry time of the wall surface with a mixture of isopropyl alcohol (70%) and water (30%) MAY significantly improve the adhesion. However, we highly recommend preparing the surface in advance using a primer/sealer product like Zinsser® Gardz® or Zinsser® Shieldz® by Rust-Oleum®, which can be found at most hardware stores. Use this clear coat sealant to cover the area where the mural will be applied to the wall surface. Wait at least 24 hours (preferably longer) before installing the mural. If applying to newly painted walls, wait 10-14 days before installation. Unpainted drywall, or walls with inferior paint applications, may be problematic and need attention before beginning your mural installation. Contact Us if you have questions. Wall Textures: Many walls have been treated with an added decorative texture like orange peel, knockdown, stipple, etc. For these wall surface textures, it is crucial that they are properly prepared and the right mural material is chosen for peel and stick materials. If possible, consider smoothing out your wall texture with a skim-coating of drywall compound before priming and painting; this will give the ideal wall surface with few imperfections. If skim-coating is not an option, sand any rough areas and eliminate as many high spots and ridges as possible, and consider applying a primer/sealer product like Zinsser® Gardz® by Rust-Oleum®, which can be found at most hardware stores. Use this clear coat sealant to cover the area where the mural will be applied to the wall surface. Wait at least 24 hours (preferably longer) before installing the mural. **We aim to address customer concerns such as these and provide suggestions for the best mural experience for our customers. Magic Murals cannot accept, refund or replace returned murals due to incompatible wall surfaces. Ultimately, it is the customer’s responsibility to install a mural according to its instructions and take the necessary steps to properly prepare the wall surface prior to installation.** COMPARE OUR MATERIALS Our materials feature a matte finish for extremely vibrant colors and reduced glare.

Soaring above the city streets, spanning towering skyscrapers or simply providing links between buildings at lower heights, skybridges often host gardens, observation decks and even swimming pools. More than just indoor bridges, they're spaces from which to take in views of cities around the world, from Singapore to Copenhagen. Marina Bay Sands Skypark, Singapore Over - Page 2

By looking at this awesome view from the terrace of a lonely restaurant, on the top of a hill in Tuscany, I started to wonder if that cypress road leads directly to the heart of the setting sun... Entering in the dining room, only lit by the golden rays of the last sun, I discovered that I was right. And also I realised that I was in the most romantic restaurant I've been in Italy so far... Guardando questo spettacolo dalla terrazza panoramica di un ristorante solitario, sulla cima di un poggio toscano, ho iniziato a chiedermi se quella strada di cipressi portasse direttamente al cuore del sole che tramontava... Entrando nel salone, illuminato soltanto dai raggi d'oro dell'ultimo sole, ho scoperto di aver ragione. Ed anche il fatto che mi trovavo nel più romantico dei ristoranti italiani in cui sono stato fin'ora...
