Exellent Freeze-Dried Fruit Benefits - Droogfruit.nl - Healthy Fruit Snacks

Hi There..... Do you want healthy fruit snacks at work too, but without the hassle of cutting up fruits in the morning? Have you ever tried freeze-dried fruit?


Picture by Seadbeady

I love the taste of fruits, but it's often such a hassle. Take an orange, for instance, I just hate to peel them? It's somewhat of a love-hate relationship for me. 😕

Even though I love oranges, often I don't even buy them because I hate peeling them first, and don't get me started on the sticky hands afterward. 😒

It's the same with lemons. I buy lemon juice from concentrate because I hate the hassle of peeling them. Once a day though I just want to have the real thing, because it's soooo much better. 😍

Don't you just love it when you are drinking your cup of tea with genuine lemon in it, and some segments have been cut open? 😁

You take a sip and a few of the juice sacs slip into your mouth. So sour that you have to shake your head, but so good at the same time. Ah, there you have it, the proof that I am genuinely nuts. 😂

Glad to know I'm not the only one though, because Justin Bieber said, "I'm crazy, I'm nuts. Just the way my brain works. I'm not normal. I think differently." 😎

Still, I am sane enough to tell you more about the dried fruit jars Droogfruit sent me in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍

What is Freeze-dried fruit?

Freeze-dried fruit is lightweight and very crunchy. It is not a frozen fruit as it claims, but a name for the special drying method in which only the water is removed from the fruit. 

As a result, no less than 97% of all substances are preserved, ideal for children who do not get enough fruit. Freeze-dried fruit is pure nature.

Advantages

The great thing about freeze-dried fruit is that after freeze-drying, up to 97% of the substances are preserved. You can keep the fruit closed in the cupboard for a long time, provided it is in the right condition. 

Freeze-dried fruit borders on perfection. It's the best drying method. The fruit has a crunchy structure due to freeze-drying. Suitable as a snack, breakfast cereal, but also for your children to take to school, ice cream, etc.

The advantage of freeze-dried fruit is that it contains no added sugars or other additives. The fruit is tasteful enough on its own, and we are tired of all those weird additions! 😉

Fruit powders

Are you looking for crushed fruit for processing in your smoothie, yogurt, or dishes, and are you looking for a solution? Then look here. We have a large range of fruit powders. 

Our fruit powders are pure, so they consist of 100% fruit. With our banana, strawberry, and pear powders, you can make the best smoothies. Doesn't that sound great?

Picture by Seadbeady

My opinion on the dried fruit

I was so happy they picked me to write a review for them. Since my Gastric Bypass, I am always looking for healthy alternatives to snack on. 😋

These healthy fruit snacks are perfect to snack on if you ask me. They can also be an excellent alternative for people that like eating candy. 😃

Picture by Seadbeady

Dried fruit has a tremendous advantage because it contains no added sugars, but still moderation is key. 😉

Now, the one thing you have been waiting for, how does it taste? I received a selection of 8 fruits to try. 😦

Picture by Seadbeady

Strawberry: 
Crunchy and sweet with a hint of sour.
Blueberry: 
Crunchy and sweet and slightly sour.
Tangerine: 
Slightly chewy and a little sticky. Sweet with a hint of sourness.
Banana: 
Very crunchy and sweet.
Apple: 
Very crunchy and sweet, with a slight hint of sourness.
Pineapple: 
Very crunchy and sweet, with a slight hint of sourness.
Redcurrent: 
Crunchy and sour, with tiny seeds in them.
Raspberry: 
Crunchy and sour.

I love all of them except for the redcurrant. The seeds get in between my teeth, and that's annoying, but it's all a matter of taste, of course. 😍

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

Interview with Fashion Designer Kahindo Mateene

Hi There..... What time is it? Oh, ok, time for another fashion designer interview, I guess?


Picture provided by Kahindo Mateene

If you ask me, it's always good to learn more about fashion brands that are new to us. 😍

I was also thinking you might be interested in knowing more about the background of fashion models? Let me know if that's a subject that speaks to you. 😯

Oh my, that means I am giving myself more work, because I would have to come up with new questions for them to answer. Ooh, I am such a fool, but you already knew that, didn't you? 😜

Do you also know who comes on Wednesdays? We have a stupid riddle about that in Belgium. It's the butchers, they are there to cut the week in half. Don't know about you, but I think it's fun. 😄

As I was trying to look up if there is something similar in English, I came across this lovely quote from Anthony T. Hincks, "Wednesdays will always bring smiles for the second half of the week". It brought a smile to my face for sure. 😊

Let's hope my next interview with fashion designer Kahindo Mateene brings a smile to your face, too. 😉

Picture provided by Kahindo Mateene

What are your name, function, and the company you work for?

Kahindo Mateene, Founder and Designer of KAHINDO

How old are you?

43

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be?

Fashion brand owner

What made you decide to become a Fashion Designer?

I became a Fashion Designer because I wanted to design clothing that represented my Congolese heritage and African upbringing in a modern way, and also told authentic and positive stories about the African continent. 

I also wanted to use fashion as a vehicle to make a social impact, specifically in Sub-Saharan Africa, where I am from, by creating jobs, empowering women, and ending poverty through paying fair living wages.

Is fashion important to you? Why?

Fashion is important to me because I believe that making conscious, responsible decisions today will create a better future for everyone. Sustainability in fashion is about much more than fabrics and material sourcing. It also extends to the people who create products and the fairness of the practices that surround their work. 

As part of our commitment to ethics and sustainability, we only use ethically sourced materials and are devoted to fair-trade production practices. In addition, we are actively working to meet the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, which include gender equality, climate action, access to quality education, and elimination of poverty.

Picture provided by Kahindo Mateene

What are your successes, and how did you achieve them?

I have had some great opportunities, including showing at fashion weeks
throughout the world, being accepted into the Chicago Fashion Incubator at Macy's, the Zappos Emerging designer program, and after 3 auditions getting selected to compete on Season 12 of Project Runway as a Designer
Contestant. I am also carried at Rent The Runway, Nuuly, and 5 boutiques.

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

No, how it's made and who made it is more important than the name of the brand.

Describe your personal style of clothing?

My personal style is ever-changing. I dress the way I feel for the day. It can be chic, colorful, sexy, and sophisticated.

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look?

It’s ever-changing, but I like to look unique and different.

Do you have an influence on other people’s clothing style?

I think so. I use a lot of color and prints and my designs also reflect this.

Picture provided by Kahindo Mateene

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

A return to authenticity and just following an individual sense of style and not dressing trendy.

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

Following trends that don’t fit into your personal style.

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

Never be scared to experiment with colors. They are a great mood booster.

Who is your style icon and why?

My late Mother is a constant inspiration for me, and how I design for my fashion brand KAHINDO. 

She was a fashionista back in her day and wore beautiful traditional African print outfits, which were à propos in the 60s and 70s. She had an individual sense of style, and I am so happy that I inherited that from her.

Picture provided by Kahindo Mateene

Thank you, Kahindo, for answering my questions. I am very much a fan of your designs. 😍

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

The Best Travel Case For An (Electric) Toothbrush - Toothbrush Case - Just The Case

Hi There..... Have you been looking forever for a travel case for your toothbrush? What if I told you about a toothbrush case?


Picture by Seadbeady

Perhaps, like most of you, I pack my toothbrush in a plastic bag because there’s no other way to transport them and keep the darn things away from other items, like your hairbrush. 😬

Ooh, so much fun brushing your teeth with some extra hairs mixed in with your toothpaste. 😂

Yuck, no, of course not. Do you know what the problem is? Once you have taken them out, you keep searching for that single hair left in your mouth, even if there’s none. Right, or is that just me? 😲

If a woman is unaware of the existence of a toothbrush case, what should she do? You can’t keep searching for a solution to every problem you have, now can you? That could drive a person insane unless you are insane already. 😜

When I was a very young girl, we would put everything in our suitcase just like that. There were no travel cases for toiletry or anything. Then again, there could have been some items for the more affluent middle class, but that wasn’t us. 😏

I’m practically certain they didn’t have toothbrush cases either, but as you know, times have changed, so let me tell you some more about this travel case, Just The Case B-Case sent me in exchange for my honest opinion 😍

Picture by Seadbeady

B case - Just The Case

Travel cases for (electric) toothbrushes
Precisely the one thing you need
A case for your toothbrush
hygienic and washable, easy to clean
protects your (electric) toothbrush while traveling
1 universal size for all (electric) toothbrushes
room for 2 separate brush heads
a personal and original design
no hassle, just the one thing you needed

How it started

It started with a toothbrush…
Indeed. That indispensable toothbrush that we use every day and put in the luggage first when we go on vacation, weekend trips, or on business trips.

Our electric toothbrush. Because in the end, it takes our most important asset to a higher level: our smile!

After a lot of traveling - especially short business trips - the question kept coming up again and again of where I should store this device so that I could still pack it in a hygienic and convenient way. 

And for a change a cool and hygienic solution instead of the boring dead plastic case. Since I couldn't find anywhere what I thought was the ideal solution, I created it myself: the b-case.

Perfectly sized to fit one electric toothbrush and 2 separate brush heads, plus room for your favorite tube of toothpaste.

Very light, safe, washable, hygienic, and designed in an original and fun model, ready to throw in your luggage. No hassle, no struggle. Simply easy, and actually indispensable.

Picture by Seadbeady

For the stylish traveler!

Have you been looking for a brilliant solution to take your (electric) toothbrush with you on a trip in style?

Whether it's that long blissful sun-and-do-nothing vacation, city, or business trip, the least attractive thing in the luggage was always that boring plastic case with your toothbrush. Or just loose in the toiletry bag, which is actually not that hygienic and only contaminates the rest of the contents.

Well, look no further!
I have designed a stylish, but above all handy solution to open your luggage without hesitation: the b-case.

Picture by Seadbeady

Just a light, washable case to store your (electric) toothbrush, and what's very handy, there's extra room for 2 brush heads and your favorite tube of toothpaste. And the case isn't just for one model but it's compatible with every brand of toothbrush.

There is also no risk the electric toothbrush would switch on accidentally, leading to a flat battery upon arrival at your destination (or the embarrassing vibration sound at the luggage check that leads to questioning looks...)

Light, washable, brilliant design, just an easy travel gadget that every traveler can no longer do without! If you prefer not to brush electrically? No problem, a regular toothbrush also fits in perfectly!

Picture by Seadbeady

My opinion on the toothbrush case

They can come in very handy if your kids spend the night elsewhere or go to a youth camp or summer camp. They are sturdy but not heavy, which is ideal for traveling. 😊

Also, if you have a late-night departure, and you still want to brush your teeth before you pack, no problem. If your toothbrush is still wet, just put it in the case, because you can wash it after use. 😍

Picture by Seadbeady

What's most handy about this b-case is that you can store all your teeth-cleaning supplies in it. Not only your (electric) toothbrush and brush heads but also, for example, your toothpaste, or an interdental brush (against tartar). 😊

They are packed separately in cardboard boxes. I'd say if you are looking for a fun gift for someone who likes to travel, this could be the one. 😎

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

Interview with Fashion Stylist Genevieve Kacmar

Hi There..... Are you ready to learn more about fashion and style? Can I interest you in a new fashion stylist interview?


Picture provided by Genevieve Kacmar

How can you say no to that? Fashion is much more interesting than, let's say, things like tools for bloggers, isn't it? 😏

Oops, that's right, almost forgot, it was I who made such a boring blog post. 😨

Sometimes you have to make less interesting posts for people to realize how interesting other ones, like fashion stylist interviews, are. Just like in fashion and style, perhaps, it's mixing and matching. 😉

Getting older has at least one benefit. You learn it's impossible to please everyone all the time. The question is, do I care? 😎

It's as George Carlin said, 'People who say they don't care what people think are usually desperate to have people think they don't care what people think.' 😂

Ah, I bet you had to read twice to get the point of this one. You are free to read it as many times as you like. 😁

Just don't forget this blog post isn't about quotes but about fashion stylists, so time to continue with the interview. 😍

Picture provided by Genevieve Kacmar

What are your name, function, and the company you work for?  

Genevieve Kacmar, Personal Stylist for House of Colour
 

How old are you?

41
 

What kind of work do you do?

I specialize in Color and Style Analysis. I teach clients what colors enhance their natural beauty and discover their personal style using their body architecture, personality, and lifestyle.
 

What made you decide to become a Fashion Stylist?

I loved the confidence I gained after I got my own colors and style done. It changed how I shop and dress my body. My mental focus shifted from my body doesn’t fit these clothes to these clothes are not suitable for my body. 

This mental shift was huge for my mental health. I loved how I represent who I am on the inside and on the outside with the clothes that I wear, and I want to provide others with these tools that I have found so useful.
 

Is fashion important to you? Why?

Yes! I have learned the power and influence fashion and style have on our everyday lives. First impressions are made quickly, and what we take in visually is a huge part of that. 

I can show authority and confidence with an outfit choice. Also, wearing my best colors in the correct proportions and balance makes me feel my best in both casual and formal clothes.  

Picture provided by Genevieve Kacmar
 

What are your successes and how did you achieve them?

I truly feel blessed and successful with every thank you note I receive after an appointment with a client. Knowing that I have affected their lives positively. 
 

Is the name of a Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

Brand names are not very important to me. Quality is important to me. 
 

Describe your personal style of clothing?

At House of Colour, my style is a Natural Ingenue, which means I like to mix textures and have some movement with my clothes. I feel my best with some structure and I like my details to be smaller and more feminine. 
 

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

House of Colour helps to guide us when creating our personal style based on our body architecture, personality, and lifestyle. 

I then take that information and create looks I love. The guidelines help me determine the scale, fabrics, and shapes that work for my body. 

Picture provided by Genevieve Kacmar

In what way do you influence other people’s clothing style?

I love our process so much because it is about finding someone's personal style and not trying to mimic my style to someone else. 

I teach my clients to embrace their own bodies and have confidence in developing their own style with the information they learn during a style class.
 

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

I love the dusters and longer coats. They add so much interest to an outfit. 
 

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

One benefit of knowing what works for your body is also knowing which trends to skip and which ones to have fun with!  

I will skip the slip dress trend because I know I will not be comfortable in it so it is a no for me! But I think it looks great on other people!
 

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

Just because something is on trend doesn’t mean you have to wear it! Pick what is best for you and love what you wear! 
 

Is there something else you would like to share with us? 

For any upcoming fall/winter trends: Try adding some leather to your wardrobe! I am seeing it everywhere and there are so many fun ways to add it to your look. 

Picture provided by Genevieve Kacmar

Thank you, Genevieve, for answering my questions. I totally agree that leather upgrades your look. 😊

If you are interested, here are some of my previous fashion stylist interviews

Interview with Makeup Artist Dorothy Strouhal

Hi There..... Are you interested in makeup styles? How about a new makeup artist interview?


Picture provided by Dorothy Strouhal

I don't have them lined up in rows at the moment, so if you are reading this, and you are up for an interview, just let me know. That would be cool to have a long row of people waiting to be interviewed by me. 😉

So, it's almost Halloween, and you can often find a lot of cool makeup styles around this time. 😵

Wouldn't it be cool to share some scary, evil looks on my blog? Perhaps I should do a roundup of interesting makeup channels and scare the wits out of you. 😱

I think that would be quite cool, so if you have a YouTube channel, and you are planning to share creepy or beautiful Halloween looks, you had better let me know. There will be consequences if you don't. 😈

Ah yes, I will make you regret you chose not to share them with me. You are probably wondering how. 😨

If you thought I couldn't be evil, think again. This is the perfect timing to show you the ugly side of me. 😡

How? By not sharing your looks, of course. What else can I do? Completely nothing, but it felt good to scare you for once. 😂

Ok, back to the peace-loving, reasonable me. Let's hear what our next makeup artist has to say. 😍

Picture provided by Dorothy Strouhal

What are your name, function, and the company you work for?  

I am Dorothy Strouhal of Your Makeup Expert, owner of Luminess Cosmetics, and On-Air Beauty Expert.

How old are you? 

49

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

I am a celebrity makeup artist, beauty advisor, and image consultant.


What made you decide to become a Makeup Artist? 

I’ve always wanted to be a makeup artist from a young age. It was just a part of who I was. 

Is beauty important to you? Why?

I believe beauty is in everything and everyone. Sometimes bringing it out for others to celebrate is the challenge, so I love extracting beauty and highlighting it across the board. 

Picture provided by Dorothy Strouhal

What are your successes, and how did you achieve them? 

I have had favor in many arenas. It was an honor to be on set for national sports events, commercials, and movies. Having a great work ethic, character, and team focus open doors to these things. 

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy make-up? 

Important no BUT I will say a brand's name is only as good as its reputation. So if the brand has a great reputation for quality and consistency, I will take note of it and use it. 

Describe your personal make-up style?

I’m a natural glam. I love all things glam with a twist of edge but also like to keep the skin looking natural and healthy. 

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

I do! I have pink hair. When I started really coming into my full self and personality as an artist and grown woman, I started going pink because I wanted to. I have had it now for over 10 years. It’s my natural hair color 😊

Do you have an influence on other people’s make-up or clothing style? 

I hope so. But mainly help them discover their own look and style and become confident in that. 

Picture provided by Dorothy Strouhal

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment? 

Healthy living, healthy fresh, hydrated skin

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment? 

IG fake makeup looks. Let’s erase the face and paint on a new one that looks good on camera but awful in person without lights. 

What kind of beauty advice would you give us? 

Hydrate, take care of your skin, and accentuate your best assets. Love you and be kind to others because that’s where the beauty shines through. 

Who is your style icon and why? 

I don’t really have one. 

Is there something else you would like to share with us? 

I believe that style and makeup are very personal and fluid. So it can change as you do. It doesn’t define you, but it sure is fun to express. Become confident in who you are and share that with the world.

Thank you, Dorothy, for filling in my questions. I love that natural hair color of yours. 😍

It's Quora’s mission to share and grow the world’s knowledge. Not all knowledge can be in writing and much of that which can be still isn't.

They want to connect the people who have this knowledge to the people who need it, bring together people with different perspectives so they can understand each other better, and empower everyone to share their knowledge for the benefit of the rest of the world.
