Local goat yogurt

I’m glad you guys enjoyed the icee idea … I’m still LOVING it. I’ve had kombucha icees the last three days. It’s a perfect afternoon treat!

Local Goat Yogurt

Today I tried goat yogurt for the first time: I enjoyed it on a piece of local whole wheat toast topped with peanut butter and strawberry preserves. It was delicious!!
The yogurt is from Nannie Cheese Goat Products in Maysville, Missouri. Love Grown Foods

As I previously mentioned, Love Grown Foods was kind enough to send me a package full of their granola to try out on Lesley Lifting Life. Cocoa Goodness:
Sweet Cranberry Pecan:
Raisin Almond Crunch:
I really loved them all, and I’m not sure if I could even pick a favorite. Though I must say, the almonds in the Raisin Almond Crunch were perfect!!

They’re all highly recommended. Thanks, Love Grown Foods.

Originally Organic Vending

We recently had a taste testing booth at an event of one the KC YMCA’s that our vending machines are in.

A couple months ago I was contacted by Build-A-Sign offering to review some of their products. I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to have Originally Organic Vending signs for taste tests such as this! They were extremely helpful, and it was a very pleasant experience working with them. The signs turned out perfectly! We shared a table with another vender who had a tablecloth, so we just propped the sign up next to us and our food.

Though the machine has been there for a few months now, it was very funny to hear how many people didn’t realize they had even gotten a new vending machine, and it was a welcomed surprise to them.
