| Made in Nature Organic Dried Fruit |
Made in Nature helped us celebrate yesterday!
 |
| First Day of School / Last Day of School Look at all that growing my son did! |
What were we celebrating? The last day of school & the start of summer break! My favorite time of the year, woohoo!
 |
| It's called organic dried fruit, but the Cranberry we tried was moist and delicious, with the consistency almost of raisins. |
Made In Nature, a pioneer in organic produce, today is the modern Indiana Jones of organic ingredient procurement and the curator of those foods. It travels to where no organic food company will go to confirm deliciousness and goodness at its source. Globe-trotting Made in Nature makes hard-to-find organic ingredients easy to cook and enjoy fast. Once back home, Made In Nature is an alchemist in its test kitchen, making healthy food, swift to enjoy, without any artificial anything. Made In Nature is real and true food. The results are some of the most culturally-inspired and convenient organic dishes available. May the tasty journey continue.
There's a whole lot of healthy going on with these little tasty treats...

| I want him to have snack options that are good for him! Incidentally, this was a HUGE moment for him, his 1st time pumping the swing alone. :) |
and though the Made in Nature Cranberries probably didn't give him the ability to pump his own swing for the firs time ever (oh yes, he did!)--------it surely didn't hurt. ;) Kids need a lot of healthy goodness in them, and what better way than prepacked 100% delicious and good for you fruit?

You can check out the many recipes Made in Nature has available on their website. There are (16) different kinds of Organic Dried Fruit to choose from, and each has suggested recipe or two at the bottom of the description. I liked our dried fruit so well that I'm probably going to be picking up an apricot and a fusion blend (two separate products) for summertime snacking (which definitely increases in quantity when the kids are home ;) ).
