Another Unofficial Chatterbox Thread- Everyone is Welcome!

My kids love those funky yogurts. Im not a fan, but I dont really like yogurt anyways..

i never used to like yogurt, it always had kind of a bitter zing to it to me. but now that i'm older i find i like things i used to hate as a kid.

i like the fruity ones, especially the ones with chunks of real fruit in them. oh, and the key lime pie one is pretty darn good, too!

but i don't know, chocolate yogurt? i can't remember if i got one or two, i might have already missed my chance to try it. i actually got the banana cream pie ones for dh, because of course he can't have the real thing anymore, and it's his all-time favorite dessert. he LOVES yogurt, so we get fat-free or nearly fat-free.

the kids got hooked on yo-baby yogurt as babies, especially ds4 because we needed to fatten him up a bit when he was way underweight. i think ds8 could give up yogurt if he absolutely had to (especially if he could still have oreos), but i think ds4 might go insane if he were told he couldn't have zogurt anymore.

IT WORKS!!!! I'm finally free of dial up! It's not as fast as our Comcast at work, but it's way faster than dial up!

And now for the bad news....I tried loading the software on our new laptop and now it seems to have some sort of a problem. I can only get it to run in Safe Mode. But I'll figure it out soon I'm sure. In the meantime I am SO happy!

 

[sameyeyam]

Drat, I missed everybody. Oh well, off to see if I can get the new internet loaded onto the laptop. I'll check in later. Geez, I sure hope my brain can keep up with the new internet speed, otherwise I won't be able to think of enough wise cracks quickly enough.

 

[funnygarcia]

woohoo, Alison has come out of the stone age of dial up.

I would give up doing anything on the computer if we were on dialup, I have no patience.

mmm yogurt is good.

I like making my own but I need to buy some dry culture, it's hard to find plain yogurt without added gelatin in small cups. You need about a 1/2 cup to get the cultures started, next you must remember to scoop out some from the 1st batch to make the next one grow.

Lately I get whatever premade yogurt I can buy free or pennies each-- cheaper than buying milk to make my own.

I prefer plain non fat, toss in some cereal and a splash of Torani sugar free vanilla syup.. mmm tasty tart with a touch of sweet.

I haven't tried it but read that the greek style yogurt is really good - good for you too. Fago is one brand, but not sure if they have it at my local regular grocery -- they had it at Trader Joe's.. too far away for regular shopping.

mmmm I like yogurt. I like any dairy product really. I never tried making my own... It sounds good.

Have you ever made pudding? Homemade pudding is proably good too....

Ok so so not cool!!! I subscribed to this to get an email of new messages. Only last time I posted it was on page 9. Now its on page 12!!!!

How rude not to let me know people have been posting

 

[sameyeyam]

Oh we're always posting. When I was first on here it was sending me an email every time someone posted. Imagine my surprise to get to the office in the morning and find that I have 125 email notifications of this thread.

 

[funnygarcia]

I've never tired putting it on alert, but it would fill my email very quickly some days.

hey, they moved my smileys again. (I really want the grr I'm frustrated smiley here.. too lazy to look it up)

 

[funnygarcia]

It's the darn DIS sloooooooooooow down.. sigh.

 

[sameyeyam]

Phew, I thought it was my new internet. When I tried to log on earlier it was down, now the smilies are changed. Do you suppose the smilies have taken over the DIS??

 

[sameyeyam]

This is really strange to have my home computer working fast. I'm used to post, go fold a load of laundry, come back, wait a few minutes, grab a snack, oh great it finally posted.

They were showing a newscaster from MN on our new tonight. He was blowing bubbles and letting them freeze and then popping the frozen bubbles. KEWL! I had no idea you could do that.

 

[sameyeyam]

Don't make me talk to myself...because you know I will. Not only that I can now talk at the speed of high speed.

Wow, this high speed is really kewl! I can double post while only posting once.

I'm beginning to think the DIS is having a meltdown tonight.
