…and the terrible titles continue!! 
But, my post title explains things pretty well. I enjoyed two really great snacks this afternoon. 
My first snack of the afternoon was a homemade granola bar.
Followed by a yummy surprise! 
On my doorstep this afternoon, I found a fun, little package.
Inside was a special something from Stonyfield. I’m not going to lie, I loved the adorable packaging right away. Check out the cute cupcake-like containers! 
Inside the box was a 4-pack of Stonyfield Oikos Greek yogurt in chocolate and caramel flavors. Holy yum!
Even though I had just eaten a snack, I couldn’t wait to break into the caramel flavor. I have a weird caramel yogurt/ice cream obsession.
I have to admit, I really don’t like yogurts with fruit at the bottom. No matter how much mix and stir, I can never quite get it right and then the last few bites are super sugary sweet. Ick. 
So, when I discovered that the caramel-flavored OIkos had caramel at the bottom, I was sort of bummed. But, of course, I didn’t want to jump to conclusions about a potentially decadent dessert-like yogurt.
Well, this yogurt was really, really, really tasty! The caramel was smooth, rich, and sweet, and blended surprisingly well with the thick, creamy yogurt. Each bite was truly a treat! I could definitely see myself enjoying one of these as a dessert after lunch or dinner. The caramel flavor is perfect for a sweet tooth like mine!
I may or may not have used my finger to lick the container clean. Mmm!
Mal had a rough day at work, so I’m taking him out for sushi. Hopefully, an impromptu “date night” with some good conversation and delicious food will lift his spirits.

I feel like everyone got that Oikos but me! I really wish I would have got it – I want to try the chocolate flavor!
Yum! Looks delicious…and I totally clean my yogurt containers with my finger
Anytime I see a box with the word “indulge” I obey. Immediately. Nice that this one was followed by “without guilt”.
I’ll have to keep an eye out for those flavors, yum!
hope mal’s day gets better! I also love the oikos caramel, it’s so good!
Darn that sounds good! I’ve been avoiding it until now but I just don’t know I can any longer
Those two flavors look yummy!
Sounds great! I’m not a fan of ‘fruit on the bottom’ either, so I’m glad this mixed well. I’d definitely see it as a treat though, rather than something to eat often. Probably quite a bit higher in calories and sugar, right?
Hope you and Mal have a great dinner and it takes his mind off work!
@Lisa @ Early Morning Run: I’m not sure about the calories– I didn’t even check!
I’ve seen this at my local WF’s but at $4.99 for 4 little cups…I wasn’t sure if I could jump right in ya know? I wish I could try just one
oh, i hope mal is cheered up by y’alls date! i love the caramel Oikos too…the chocolate is good, but the caramel is GREAT! such a wonderful dessert
Great snack!
I am obsessed with the caramel! I like to dip apple slices in it. The chocolate doesn’t do it for me- tastes like chocolate milk, which I’m not a fan of.

That yogurt looks delicious. I want some!
I’ve been eating the caramel yogurt for a couple of weeks now and love it! Totally recommend it to everyone!
I love Katie’s suggestion of dipping apples into the caramel yogurt. I never would have thought of that.
That is super cute packaging. Those are both awesome and delicious snacks. I really want that recipe for the granola bar, can’t wait for your book.
I love the caramel Oikos! I could really go for some sushi too
I hope it cheers Mal up!
That packaging is SO CUTE!! Love it! I wish we could get that yoghurt in Australia!!
I bought my first oikos today…we’ll see if we like!
That is the one Oikos i have not tried yet! Can’t wait to hear your opinion on the choco flavor too… and don’t worry about the bad titles. Maybe today was a writer’s block considering you come up with great titles daily and write so much!
Yum! Love how they packaged the yogurts;)
hey – u are posting several times a day…u cannot always be spiffy with titles!
tell these oikos people to send their greek yogurt to canada please …not cool that we do not have it
Hi Tina! Do you have a recipe for those awesome looking homemade granola bars?
Ah…poor Mal…but a sushi date is sure to cheer him up!!
@samantha: She is saving it for her book!
Ahhhhh I’ve been dying to try those two flavorssssss! Cute marketing Package though!
16g of sugar!!! Holy moly!
Impromptu dates nights are the BEST

Gotta love Stoneyfields! I received some samples (though definitely not packaged quite as fabulously!) and I must admit…it is becoming my favorite for greek yogurt.
Enjoy that sushi! A little food, drink and convo can always wash away the bad day. Then you have the Murphy to finish off the job.
I hope Mal has a better day tomorrow, the weekend is only two days away after all
I have had the chocolate kind and thought it was just okay. I am not a huge fan of mixing things that are on the bottom
yum that looks terrific – cute packaging too!
I’m sorry, but I’m really tired of “guilt” being associated with food and I’m sick of seeing products that are sold on the basis that they can be eaten “without guilt.” All foods should be eaten without guilt; food is fuel and indulgences are fine in moderation, but nothing should make you feel “guilty.” That probably didn’t make sense, but you get the gist.
I bought the caramel Oikos the other day- I’m so excited to try it. Agree with you about the fruit on the bottom yogurt btw
Hope you can help Mal have a better day!
oh i’ve heard of this a few times today and indeed I think it sounds amazing
Hope you guys have a nice date and I want that yogurt,yum!
Ooh I loved that stuff! It’s like dulce de leche on the bottom!!
Sadly too expensive for me to buy all the time
Looks like great yogurt. Love it that they put it in a pretty box for you.
I love those! I lick the honey flavor dry:)
Oh I want some of those now!!!
I’m glad you and Mal can relax after a stressful day. I’m sure he’ll appreciate the sushi.
How cute is that box from Stonyfield?!?! I just got addicted to greek yogurt in the last month or so…..can’t wait to try the carmel!!!

I’m dying to try that yogurt! I feel like it may be the perfect option for curbing my ice cream cravings…but I can’t find it in the stores! The search continues…
Have a fun sushi date! Sushi makes all things better
I LOVE the caramel Oikos!!! YUM!! Try it with a microwaved apple with cinnamon, tastes like a caramel apple!
The yogurt looks tasty – I love dessert flavored yogurt! I haven’t been able to make myself like the Greek yogurt, though. It has a somewhat sour taste to it that I just really don’t like. It’s sad, because I really want to like it, and I’ve tried. It’s just not for me. And I loved the cute packaging – I’m sure that made it taste better
licking the inside is just helping the environment by not wasting… there are starving children in the world. I love that box!

What a cute marketing idea….I love Oikos, especially the honey, greek yogurt. I find dumping it into another dish helps to mix it up really good! It’s not as “icky”
I cannot wait to try these
I have both of these flavors also (gotta love a coupon!) I tried the caramel last week and loved it! I tried the chocolate tonight but didn’t really care for that flavor.
stonyfield, are you listening?? send me some!!!
have fun on your date night!
I have been eating the caramel for about 3 weeks now and it is my new favorite!
