Our good friends did manage to slog through the unusual downpour that hammered Miami-Dade and the Uppers Keys on Saturday. It was almost 10:00 p.m. by the time they struggled through delayed flights, driving directions that didn’t take detours into account, and the still-terrible signage coming out of Miami Airport. I had lasagna, ciabatta rolls, Pinot Grigio, and marble cheesecake waiting for them though.

Anyway, the next morning as I was preparing the Meyer Lemon poppyseed muffins, my girlfriend and I discussed yogurt when she confessed that she didn’t care for it. We are both well aware of the nutritional benefits of yogurt and my husband likes it. I, however, have tried – I have really, honestly tried different brands, different types and I just can’t manage to get more than a spoonful down. On the other hand, I do enjoy frozen yogurt and I make fruit and yogurt smoothies. Can anyone explain to me how there can be so much difference in a single food product?
