GoGurt

This product is by Yoplait. The box says portable lowfat yogurt, freeze n' go...thaws by lunch. It is so colorful attracting kids attention at the supermarket with some boxes having pictures of their favorite cartoon character like sponge bob. My daughter loves this so much that she could finish several tubes in one seating (8 tubes in a box).

It comes in different flavors - watermelon, strawberry, melon, paradise punch, berry and cotton candy. Regular price is $2.79 but it was on sale this week at my favorite supermarket for $1.49 each. It was the best time to stock up in my freezer.

This Pinay Is At The Winter Olympics Too

We were watching the figure skating last night and when her name was announced as Amanda Evora, I was 100% sure she is Filipina. Her parents were at the audience supporting her and her partner Mark Ladwig. Amanda and Mark were silver medalist at the US National Championship which earned them a spot to be with the US team at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. This is their biggest competition and they both stand on the 10th place.

Amanda Evora was born in New York to father Vic from Calapan, Mindoro and mom Mary Ann from Isabela. She is the first full Filipino to be representing the U.S. at the Olympics.
