    Default was thinking about yogurt...

    I know kinda silly thing to be thinking about, but my kids sometimes like those yogurts with the add ins attached to the lids. I don't buy them often since I think it's just extra junk and not good for them either, but there are times I think they should get a special treat. Anyway, I was thinking that reserving a package of powdered jell-o or kool-aid or holiday sprinkles to sprinkle on their regular yogurt would give them the little "add in" and add color and a bit of flavor for less than what they are charging for these yogurts in the store.

    I would look after the holidays for the sprinkles on mark down. They could add red or green sprinkles cheap!

    I'm wondering if cool aid or jello might make a colored mess? My little darlings would have it from one end of my kitchen to the other and stained with red and green--but at least it would be festive!

    Sounds good to me. I like to sprinkle grape-nuts cereal on my yogurt when I have it.
