great snack

I can't stand boring snacks! I like for mine and my children's snacks to be good but to also provide energy and good nutrition. Do not feed your kids cookies...pop tarts....Little Debby's and think you are giving them a good snack. Anyway...not all of my kids like this snack but I love it and eat it for snack or for breakfast regularly.
First combine 1/2 of a scoop of whey protein...I buy the Jillian brand from WalMart for $10.00....and about 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt. YOu could use plain or whatever flavor you like here. I keep a large container of vanilla on hand to use in all sorts of things I bake.
Then I cut up whatever fruit I have or want but my favorite in this is strawberries and dried cranberries.
Then add the All Bran "Bran Buds" I do not like the regular kind.....but I love these little things! I love it ........creamy, crunchy,sweet and good protein and fiber...what more could you ask????

Shred???


OK....I love to take a few minutes every other day and read a few blogs. One of the ones I read is Virtue Alert....love it! I just know that she and I would be great friends and I am claiming her son the 16 year old for Lindsey! We can do that as moms you know! Anyway...she issued this challenge today to join her in the 30 day shred with Jillian Michaels video. Lindsey and I thought this might be fun. We went to Target and bought it tonight and came home and did level 1. To say that I thought I was going to die would be an understatement! I am so out of shape.....more than I cared to admit. I chose to use the 5 pound weights....bad idea...I should have started with the 2 pounders....but I thought I was tough! Aparently NOT! Of course Lindsey will hold me to the whole 30 day thingy.....UUGGG....only 29 more days of torture left!
