Pronounced Fa-yeh

Do you like Greek yogurt? 

I know I do! 
Here's how I normally eat it. I wrote about it on THIS post. 

But here's how I recently gave it a try: 
Have you tried these before? 
I will admit, that the sugar content is a bit high, but for a healthier dessert or snack these are really not that bad! 

Here's a glance at the nutritional information: 
0% Fat

2% Fat

My husband gane the 2% fat one a try and I stuck to the 0% fat ones. 
Hubs gave the yogurt rave reviews and asked for more! 
I loved both flavors, but I really liked the raspberry flavor! 

I can't wait to try any of these flavors:

AGE TOTAL 0%:

Honey
Strawberry
Cherry
Peach
Blueberry
Raspberry
Strawberry Goji
Cherry Pomegranate
Mango Guanabana
Blueberry Acai
NEW Apple Cinnamon Raisins
NEW Orange Cinnamon
NEW Passion Fruit Clementine
NEW Kiwi Papaya Passion Fruit

FAGE TOTAL 2% AND CLASSIC:

I love that they have new flavors! I plan to try more of these awesome flavors!

JOY: Dinner's Served!

What's brought me joy this week? Well, this has been a tough question for me this week. It has been a struggle to feel on top of things and I am really trying to keep a positive attitude. Stress and Simone are not a good mix. The worst part is I am not sure why I am so stressed. I guess I really am feeling like i just want time off, even though I love teaching my little guys! 

But, this post is not to complain or gain any sort of pity. Just merely stating it was more difficult this week to come up with something! I guess what has brought me joy is definitely being able to cook for others. Since I have gotten married, it has become a great joy to meal plan and see something finished. So many times, as someone who has dabbled in so many crafts, cooking has turned into a sort of hobby that has brought me joy just in completing that task. There are so many unfinished projects that I wish i had enough hours in the day to complete! 

This week the menu items have turned out quite nicely. It brings me so much joy to know that I  pulled off a recipe successfully. I know it sounds really cheesy, but it really does make me feel like a wife who has fulfilled a duty. I sometimes have those domestic tendencies. I also feel that I have filled my belly and my husband's belly with yummy and healthy food!



In addition to the menu items that I have already posted about this week, tonight I will be trying to make Snickers Popcorn for my work potluck tomorrow! This school year one time a month our school staff has a potluck meeting and the potluck is a competition. The winner of the competition wins the prized "Golden Spatula." I won it for the month of September for S'mores bars. Click the link for an AWESOME recipe! Anyway, this should be fun to make! (And because my hubby will feel left out he will get a snack too!) 


I will post a review of my experience tomorrow! Oh and here's the GOLDEN SPATULA!!!
