Milk: Does a Body Good

For those of you that know me, you know that two of my favorite foods are cheese and french fries....preferably when they come together in perfect unison. I love dipping those french fried sticks into a hot gooey cheesy....artery-clogging, thigh-dimple inducing mess!

I have been inspired by this blog www.kimberlysnyder.net/blog/ , and even though I am quite certain I will never be as healthy as this guru, she has given me the courage to try new things.

My first excursion into the new: Vanilla Almond Milk, rich with vitamins, antioxidants, and calcium. ( I was too scared to try the non-flavored). Today I poured some in my coffee. It was sweet, a little thicker ( I'm used to skim) and surprising delicious. I am going to try it in smoothies and used in a recipe for strawberry muffins. I am also going to sneak attack my nephew with it too :-).
