Drinkable Yogurt Recipe

On our recent family visit to Ontario, Miss Kiki found a new love for Danino drinkable yogurt that her cousin drinks. Since we came back, she kept asking for the 'red' yogurt, referring to the cute little red slim Danino bottle. I don't mind giving them to her once in a while, but these are loaded with sugar and a bunch of other unnecessary stuff. What would be better than making your own yogurt, one that you know exactly what you put in it? I already know how to make my own yogurt, now it's a matter of making it more attractive to a picky almost-2-year-old. So this is what I came up with....

(Or can't really decide on what to write about!) One of my friends from out of town sent me a message asking questions on cloth diapers and mentioned that she reads my blog! Well that makes me very happy :D Since I responded to her questions with some elaborate descriptions, I thought I might as well post it here too.... Hi again! I'm excited to hear that you want to give cloth diapers a try. They are wonderful! It is easier for you that you start now because a 1 year old doesn't require changing as often as a newborn would. Brand I use AMP Diapers and I love it!  http://www.ampdiapers.com/ There are a lot of brands out there and you want to be selective when you buy. Some can be leaky. Type AMP diapers have many different types for different people. For the closest to disposa...
