Food Review : Yoplait Petit Miam Yoghurt

Received an invitation from Kidspot to trial Yoplait Petit Miam Yoghurt. It's the 6x60g, strawberry flavour. I accepted the invitation and received a Woolworths gift card to make my purchase.

And so I went  to my nearest Woolworths store to look for it. There were lots of yoghurt on display and took me awhile to locate it.

Checked out the price and was horrified to find that it costs $4.19! On well, thankfully my gift card is at $5, so that still gives me some change.

Bought it home and Miss 2.5 very hungrily devoured a cup.

What I didn't like about it :
1. The cups, when broken apart individually, has sharp edges and could scratch children under 2years.
2. It is very sweet. Sugar content is high
3. Very expensive for such small cups.

What I like about it :
1. It is very child-friendly. The cups are very easy to handle.
2. The yoghurt itself is creamy and does not have fruit bits. All blended in very well.

Will I buy it again? Perhaps not on my own, unless there's another gift voucher to be used.

Book Review : You Can Be Anything God Wants You To Be by Max Lucado

Having an identity crisis? Not sure what the future holds for you? Having doubts about your abilities?

When I received this book from Booksneeze a few months ago, I am eager to open it up and read it. Although it has a sticker on the front cover that says "Perfect Gift for the Graduate", I felt that it was a suitable book for any Christian.

Max Lucado drives in the message that God made each of us unique. An individual. One of a kind. Special.

You Can Be Anything God Wants You To Be is an easy read with short, powerful chapters, filled with relevant Bible verses, bringing the reader through finding his/her uniqeness, finding purpose and glorifying God through the gifts and talents He has packed in for each of us.

Max wrote that, "God packed you on purpose for a purpose." What a powerful statement! God actually made me before I was born, with gifts and talents that I can use to glorify him.

He emphasized in the last few chapters to be content with what we have and not be deceived by greed or the desire to be great. He used the story of a popcorn peddlar who is content being a peddlar and not the boss of a popcorn chain. The popcorn peddlar was happy selling popcorn with just one stand. But if greed comes in and he starts to purchase more popcorn stands and eventually manages them, will he still be as happy? "Suppose he swaps the open street and river of people for four walls and a desk. Will he give up more than he gains?"

Some of us are joyful, effective ministers as sales people, but once we give in to greed and seek higher promotion or a so-called 'better world' as the society deems, we lose our drive and energy to be effective for Christ, we lose our purpose in Christ.

I recommend this book to anyone seeking God's will and purpose in his/her life.

I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
