It's forty minutes till Wednesday over here on my coast…. and I am not prepared. I feel like you'll forgive me for skipping out on one What I Ate Wednesday… or I could tell you that I've been eating all of these magical, frozen, delicious, gold mango pops all day every Wednesday:
But in all seriousness. I complained/whined/cried over the past five weeks about how stressful it is to NOT be home… and then I get home and I complain/whine/cry over the fact that there's too much to do and not enough time. Baby steps. I had to remind myself to breathe and take it one step at a time, today. And also that its okay to have a to do list as long as the time it has taken for N'Sync to FINALLY reunite. Too. Long. In case you didn't understand that analogy.
I also repeatedly told myself that if I ate enough of these popsicles then summer would go NO WHERE. Jokes on you summer. Good try.
They have Chobani in them. In case you didn't pick up on the fact that its my new favorite thing. Yupppp that's right ladies and gentlemen, I put the entire flip in there. Graham cracker and chocolate chip pieces and all. You're welcome.
The real star, though, is the mango. The beautiful, yummy, mango.
It's kind of a weird concept, I know, yogurt and fruit frozen into a popsicle mold, oh my. It's almost like frozen… fruit…yogurt. Fruyo? You'll get used to it.
While you're warming up, let's talk silicone… molds. These are the ones I used, primarily because they were on sale at Sur La Table. Duh.
Are you warmed up to the idea yet? It's time.
The pictures speak for themselves. Let's go make some of these please :)

Ingredients
- 1 Mango
- 3/4 cup of water, divided

Was the title pun too much? I saw the option and I just had to go with it. No choice, I swear.
Also! You should all be excited about Frankie coming to visit in a few weeks… maybe I can convince him to guest post for his boozey smoothies… To. Die. For.
