You guys know I’m a big drinker. And that’s not just because I’m a big girl who’s thirsty…
I’m a sweaty beast and am basically need to replenish 6 gallons of bodily fluids every day (give or take). I’m never far from a bottle of water and an iced coffee (two hands = two drinks).
Despite my love for liquids I’ve never come around to falling in love with coconut water. But, that is your gain because when a rep from Vitacoco offered to send me some of the cold stuff I offered it up to a reader.
Coconut Water Benefits:
• Vita Coco has more potassium than a banana but fewer calories (515mg/45 calories vs. 451mg/110 calories).
• In addition to potassium, it also has key nutrients, like magnesium and calcium.

I won’t tell you the last thing I drink because it will be the only giveaway I’ll ever win and I hate coconut water. I really think it is just so yucky. It might be healthy but it sure tastes yucky. My main focus was the Eagle Castle bag. I was just having some Trinity last night. I love going there because it looks like a castle. It makes me feel like a very fancy princess. Okay… not really but I do like to pose for sexy pictures with the knight statue. I’m weird… okay… moving on.
