Nothing else can cure a rainy and gloomy day quite like a package from Love Grown!
Okay, so in reality, I got this package yesterday. Yesterday was sunny and beautiful — chilly, but gorgeous. A perfect fall day. So when I got home yesterday and saw this box of sunshine on my front porch stoop, I kind of felt like my life was complete — just like I’m going to feel when I get my macro and zoom lenses for Christmas (hint hint, nudge nudge family).
As mentioned before, I have teamed up with Love Grown (along with many other amazing bloggers) and am sporting the Love Blogger title — what does that mean? Well, part of it is making sure I have a little love in my life. And boy oh boy, was I feeling the love when I got my package yesterday.
I was sent a package of each one of the flavors to munch on throughout the fall months — in case you’re unaware, Love Grown is the best. Seriously and 100% hands down the best granola in the world.
It’s gluten free, doesn’t have any preservatives, has no refined sugar, and is really the most pure granola I have ever tasted in my life.
Loving the top of their packaging too — it makes the product so personalized!
Sorry Alex and Maddy, but I ripped your faces off to get to the goods. I hope you don’t mind.
I told myself I was allowed to open one bag at a time. I love all of the varieties, so if I opened them all at once, they would basically be gone within a week — okay, maybe three days. Who do you think I am? I never promised anyone that I had amazing self control when it comes to granola.
So, what flavor did I open first? It HAD to be my favorite — I’m not one of those “save the best for last kind of girls”.
Sweet Cranberry Pecan!
I can’t know what it is about this flavor, but it makes me go “mmm” every time I eat it — and I’m not big on onomatopoeia phrases to describe how I feel about food. Please never say “nom nom” around me. Please.
When I was carefully placing these bags into my pantry (out of the sight of others because I don’t know how to share food), I noticed the expiration date hanging out on the top of the packages.
Um, I’m sorry, but this granola won’t even make it until November 11th let alone April 11th. It’s good to know it has a six month shelf life, but I won’t be needing it — no siree.
And lucky for me, I felt some love with the great stickers they sent me as well (and magnets that are hanging out on my fridge!). I have the same message for you.
You’re my favorite, and you look good. Thanks for always being here.
Question: What was something that helped to brighten your day today?

I’m not gonna lie. I’m just a tad jealous.
I was just sent some Love Grown last week and it was my first time trying it….let’s just say I’m hooked and in love with it! That stuff is seriously awesome! Something that helped brighten my day today was getting an email from a company saying that they liked my blog and wanted to send me something to review…so cool!
Lol I’ve had a rough day, but the good part was getting to watch students from my school do moot court (fake arguing in front of the supreme court) in front of justice Scalia, who is actually on the US Supreme Court! I felt nervous for them though!
That’s fun - go law school!
I NEED to get my hands on that stuff!
YES, you do!
That granola looks really good, I love cranberries, so that’s the one I’d probably open first too.
Going for a walk this morning with the dog brightened my day.
Im super jealous! They do not have lovegrown here yet, Im patiently waiting, and wishing on a granola star! haha!
You can order it offline!
Baking for my friend’s birthday tomorrow brightened my day!
Ahhh what an awesome surprise! I need to get my hands on some of this granola, everyone raves about it.
My day got brighter when I decided to make dinner instead of having leftovers and it turned out delicious!
A freshly drawn picture from a 3rd grade student…. it had rainbows!
—I don’t know how to share food either. Uh-oh. Sorry mom. Epic fail when it comes to sharing chocolate and granola and carrots.
Mmmm love Love Grown!
My pug brightens my day every day!
So. Jealous! Hmmmmm now I’m hungry…..
I need to find this granola! It looks awesome!
I better go photograph my package before it’s all gobbled up by me!! Yeah, I don’t need no expiration date
.
I’m a huge fan of Love Grown granola as well - hands down best granola! And I absolutely agree that the Sweet Cranberry Pecan is the best! Love that stuff. Oh so addicting!
I got that box of love in the mail yesterday. I officially have enough granola to last until at least…next week
I’ve never had that granola before, it sounds good! What brightened my day was the great workout I just completed! I didn’t feel like going to the gym, but I’m glad I did.
Love Grown granola is the best! I’m obsessed with it. The stickers are super cute, too.
A fall package from my mom made my day. There wasn’t any Love Grown granola in it, but she did sent me some roasted pumpkin seed and banana bread.
Gotta love moms!
This might sound silly but grocery shopping on my lunch break made my day a little bit better. There are lots of things that can brighten up a day that was mostly spent sitting in front of a computer….
I was so happy when I got my package in the mail yesterday too! LGF is such a great company - love sharing the Love Blogger title with you!
Enjoy your package Courtney!
Mmm…I’m so jealous!
I tried out a new recipe for oatmeal-cinnamon muffins today and they turned out absolutely perfect- definitely made my day!
What an awesome way to brighten your day…I’ve still yet to try this granola everyone raves about…I’ll have to get my hands on some!
Where can you buy this? Only online? Such cute little notes they leave!
Online - they have a link to their Amazon store.
Chelsey these just look SO AMAZING! i badly want to try some in yogurt- oooh or even as a crumble on muffins!!
xoxo <3
Okay I’ve been scouting for a new granola for my yogurt bowls - I’m adding it to the list.
I had the worst day on my clinical rotation (I’m a medical student) - disaster wrong answers, crying so hard I got a bloody nose and it ended up all over my dress etc. and my roommate bought me chocolate and wrote me an encouraging note. It’s always nice to be reminded you’re loved.
That is the SWEETEST thing ever! You have a great roommate.
I might need to just buck up and order it. Is it in any food stores? I havent seen it and here in Minneapolis we have QUITE the number of health food stores.
Right now I think it’s mostly in stores in the west!
I am a bit jealous! I can’t find this stuff anywhere near my house or school!!! ENJOY!
Dinner & sangria with my best friend who’s in town for a couple of nights made my day
That is a pretty sweet package! I break up for my half term holiday today, so all good here too!
extremely jelly over here! I want to be a love blogger! LOL
Those clusters just look fabulous!
You have much more self control than I do! I have one bag of each flavor in my cabinet, they are all open, and mostly gone.
I was so. flipping. excited. to get this package on my front step yesterday! I’ve gotta say, the cocoa goodness is still my favorite.
I had to sample them all right away. cause I have little to no self control.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmm, I will have to contact/ or go to my grocery store and see, if they carry this product.
