My momma and I met up for peach picking in the orchards on Wednesday morning and had so much fun. {I would have pictures to show you, but I had a blank memory card in the camera!}
I love picking peaches with her because we have so much fun talking and I always leave feeling completely inspired by her old fashioned tips on parenting, housekeeping, loving people and her zest for life is truly contagious.
As soon as we were done picking, we drove to another farm and had a picnic lunch in a gazebo. She packed our lunch and I felt completely spoiled! She made fresh tuna sandwiches, green olives, celery sticks, cheese slices, grapes, berries, and melon with toothpicks...and my favorite...placemats for lapmats. The "ARMY NURSE" thinks of everything.
SOOO, that really has nothing to do with yogurt, but since this is a journal as well, I get to document special memories!
About the yogurt: I love Nancy's Yogurt, because it does NOT have gelatin in it...which I can NOT stand the thought of eating. My children love Tillamook yogurt, but it still has gelatin in it...BUT when we pick berries and peaches from the orchards, I love chopping up fresh fruit and adding it to the PLAIN yogurt and putting it into little straight-sided jars. It is so good and good for you. Even organic yogurts have quite a bit of sugar. I would rather have my sugar in ice cream, cobblers and cookies.
*What is one of your favorite things to do with fresh fruit?

Hi Lisa- What a wonderful time with your Mom! I hope my own kids have fun memories like those about me someday! We don't have either brand of yogurt here that you mentioned. I am not a big fan of most yogurts...they are sometimes...ummm..slimy..or something. When we were in Mexico though we had fresh yogurt with fruit in the morning and it was nothing like the yogurt we get here. Love it with peaches! xo Diana
