The Perfect Pick-Me-Up!


What do you send someone who is sick, recovering from an illness or has just found out they are pregnant? I always struggle with this. I love to give gifts that are both practical and meaningful, so sometimes flowers just don’t cut it.

I have recently discovered a wonderful product called Comfort Crunch www.comfortcrunch.com. A woman in my hometown, Lambie Stout, started creating this product with her young daughter right after she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. I find her story inspiring. It is worth visiting her website just to read the background on this delicious treat.

The Comfort Crunch she created is one of the few things that Lambie found palatable during her extensive chemotherapy treatments. I remember being pregnant and unable to eat much for the first three months. The next time a close friend of mine is in this situation, I am sending them some Comfort Crunch. For years I have tried to find that perfect little gift to send someone who is feeling down, and now I have found it!

The original Comfort Crunch is made with an assortment of peanuts, cashews and dried fruit. She also offers 3 more unique flavors: Pepita-Pick-Me-Up, Toffee Talk and Ginger-In-A-Snap which throws fun items like sunflower seeds, chocolate, ginger and old-fashioned toffee into the mix. Every flavor is low in sodium!

Did I mention that a percentage of the profits from Comfort Crunch go to furthering cancer research projects? Like I said, this product makes the PERFECT gift!
