Hello! I have been slacking in the blogging department lately. After I put the kids to bed, I have been too tired to write. Business first – Jessie is the winner of the $20 Lululemon gift card. Congrats! I hope you get something you really like!
Friday evening, my sister, Joanne, the kids and I, picked up my mom from the airport. Because it was at dinner time, we decided to hit up Red Lobster for dinner. Randy did a call ahead for 6:00. We weren’t seated until 6:50. We don’t go out with the kids very much, just dueto waiting and hunger, not a good mix for them. We figured the call ahead would be the perfect solution. Not the case, and we weren’t happy. Then the hostess proceeded to tell us that the table we waited for wasn’t good for a highchair – seriously? We talked it over with the manager, and he made it right. Our server was awesome, so he made up for it a little, too. But, the evening didn’t make me want to take the kids out again anytime soon.

I had grilled shrimp, broccoli, and salad. And more than my share of cheese biscuits. Those things are addicting!! Although stressful, we had a good evening!
Chobani graciously sent me 2 pretty exciting packages! I had been in contact with the company and they said they were sending me some plain 0% to make my own tasty combinations with.
Look at all of those!!
They also sent me some of my favorite little yogurts – the bites!!
In the package, there were a few flavors I haven’t seen in stores before. I have tried the raspberry and chocolate one, which I love, but I hadn’t tried the coffee and chocolate that I have seen. I just like the raspberry so much, that I kept buying that one instead of trying the coffee.
I love the exciting new flavors! Caramel with pineapple chunks and fig and orange zest! The flavors are great! Didn’t love the fig and orange zest – just didn’t like the chunks of fig. By didn’t like, I mean I will still be eating all of them, but I just wouldn’t choose to purchase that particular one.
My Punkin especially liked the caramel and pineapple. Go Chobani!
As promised, I made my own combination, similar to their Coco Loco flip. I mixed coconut milk with the plain yogurt, added almond butter, shredded coconut, and chocolate chips. Delicious!! It’s my new favorite go-to snack. Protein packed, filling, a little sweetness – just what I like!!
