I'm proudly married to my best friend, an active duty US Marine. I'm happily taking care of our homestead and our ever growing entourage of animals. I enjoy writing, reading, cooking, crafting, diy projects, and various outdoor activities. It's all about enjoying the journey of life with my family.
When I heard that Yoplait had come out with a new Lactose Free yogurt, I was excited, but a little skeptical. Why skeptical? Well, many of my experiences from the past have found lactose free products to be less stellar than the original version of the product. Granted, over the last few years, lactose free products have been getting much better, so I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised when the Lactose Free Yoplait was really good. In fact, it didn’t taste any different than regular Yoplait.
I tried the strawberry as that is one of my favorite yogurt flavors, but Yoplait also offers the lactose free yogurt in peach, french vanilla, and cherry. Munchkin loves peach, so that will probably be the next flavor that we try. If you’re lactose free, you no longer have to go without eating yummy tasting yogurt.
Want to try some of the new Yoplait Lactose Free Yogurt for yourself? I’m giving away a great Yoplait Lactose Free prize pack to one of my readers which includes:
- A VIP coupon to purchase Yoplait Lactose Free yogurt (free yogurt)
- Lunch tote
- 2 Gel packs
- Individual bowl
- Spoon
Giveaway is open to US residents only and ends 2/22.

Project Maize & Blue: Tailgate Repair
Posted in Family, and In the Garage
One of the first things we did when Munchkin got her truck was to strip out the inside. It was a painstaking job, but it will be worth it in the end. Once everything was removed from the interior, Munchkin painted on the Dupli-Color bed armor. She chose to do this instead of redoing the carpet. She felt it would be more durable and easier to keep clean. Daddy has been teaching Munchkin some of the finer points of stripping off paint and grinding off rough spots as they prepared the tailgate for the primer and first coat of paint.…
Gluten Free Cinnamon Sugar Chips
Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography
What do you do when the corn tortillas are past their prime, but they are still good? Well, you slice them up into wedges using a pizza cutter and fry them in coconut oil for a minute or two until they are crispy. They you place them in a paper bag that has a coconut sugar and cinnamon mixture and give it a good shake to coat the chips. Yum! If you want to make them a little extra special, use some homemade vanilla sugar in your cinnamon sugar mix. These taste really good served with fresh fruit salsa as…
