~Shopping in a Second~

Frozen yogurt places seem to be popping up all over the place. There's one in my neighborhood...Yogurt Farm and they not only have delicious yogurt and toppings but also Sushi made fresh daily?!?! Sushi and Yogurt just seem so strange to me but Craig is willing and says he will be giving the sushi a taste test as soon as he has some more Ginger Beer to go with it!

With all their fancy fruit and toppings, it certainly seems like it could be a ~Foods of the Rainbow~ They claim to be healthy with nonfat and lowfat options and all the live and active cultures but why does the ingredient list have to be so long and have artificial flavors?!?! Hey at least there's no high fructose corn syrup! Well I just tried Pink Berry and i'm here to say it is by far the BEST yet!

~Nutrition in a Nutshell~

Do you read food labels? I absolutely cannot help myself. I have been addicted to reading them for so many years. I love this story and hope that this inspires you as much as it did me.

~Foods of the Rainbow~

Lunch Box Ideas:


Little wheat mini pita pockets!
Rita loves to stuff them and chose spinach topped with plain yogurt...i stirred in some hummus but she later told me she likes it better with just plain yogurt.
Little laughing cow cheese...or sometimes string cheese
Oatmeal peanut butter bar homemade by Rita herself...baking was her reward after completing a portion from her reward chart!
Lil dark chocolate heart.
Three pitted prunes.
