Even though I don’t think I really got on east coast time last weekend, I swear I’m still on Florida time. Or maybe I’m just feeling like a Florida retiree and want the Early Bird Special because I was ready for dinner at 5pm tonight!
This was just random leftovers from Tuesday night – chicken, brussel sprouts with mushrooms and delicious garlic cheese bread.
I don’t mind an early dinner though. When I was little I remember my Grams watching the Golden Girls. Funny enough I thought she was as old as them then! Sorry Grams. Anyway, they remind me of my Grams and I want to hang out with them 
(Can someone please photoshop me in there? thanks)

I was recently invited to try one of Silk’s beverages. Since I already use their Vanilla Almond milk on a daily basis in my iced coffee and for smoothies I wanted to try something new. I went to the store with Ben tonight and let him choose the kind he wanted. We got Silk Fruit & Protein in Peach Mango.
It’s good straight up and reminded me of Mango Lassi. So, I decided to make one! Well, it’s not exactly a mango lassi, but it is a delicious
Mango Smoothie
1 cup Silk Peach Mango Juice Blend (or Vanilla Almond Milk)
3/4 cup frozen mango
1/4 cup plain Greek Yogurt
Blend. Enjoy!
Congrats to all the winners!!!
yay winners!
Hello Beautiful!
Are you still kicking soy?
If so, back away from the Silk.
And I will tell you again…if you made are anything like me, your body will LOvE being soy-free and you will lose some pounds.
I guarantee it.
Have a great weekend!
I’m cutting back significantly, but not treating it like I”m allergic just yet 🙂
I might need to give Silk another try. I used it a couple times because my roomie in college liked it. Wasn’t a big fan myself. Like the real stuff. Skim milk and I are tight. However, I might be willing to step out on her for mango protein action.
Lol, I’ve always liked eating at around 5:00/5:30. It became a problem when I started college, because I could never convince my friends to go to the Dining Center at 5:00 when I was ready to eat! But by 5pm, I am sooooo hungry!!!!
I’ve seen that Silk fruit and protein drink at the store, but haven’t tried it yet. Looks good!
For some reason, I used to watch the Golden Girls when I was little. That’s weird.
The new Silk drinks sound awesome! I don’t think we have them in Canada yet (?), but I’ll be keeping my eyes open! We drink their milk, too, so this stuff will be great!
Oooh I’ll have to try that! I have had the Silk fruit and protein before and really liked it!
Short trips are hard for me too; while I’m there, I don’t feel like I adjust to the time change and then coming back home I don’t feel like I am on my regular time anymore either! Hope you’re at least sleeping well.
Where do you find this in the store?
near the almond and soy milk 🙂
I’ve tried and love the soy milk; must get around to checking out their almond soon.
I was wondering how the new silk protein drink was… Think I’ll pick some up and try your smoothie 🙂 thanks!
I have tried the Strawberry Banana Fruit and Protein drink and really like it. The mango one looks good too!
God I love mango lassi. Perks of being brownnn!
