Joyce Stevens 5/11/2019 2:07 PMLori, that is exactly what I have been doing, but today I was up and out by 5:00 am for Lions Breakfast, so didn't have time for peanut butter on toast until I got home seven hours later. This is what I normally use yogurt for, quick protein / fruit smoothie. Only another week + to go. :-) -
Lori Nitchals 5/11/2019 1:55 PMI bet!
Hmmm...what would I do if that was my challenge? Maybe peanut butter on toast and/or muesli with water, and fresh fruit? -
