I've got 2 words for you - GOAT YOGA!  I've heard about it for years but never actually considered participating in the experience. 🐐  I mean, the concept is hilarious but I have a hard enough time staying balanced in bear pose without a goat standing on my back. 😅  But, my daughter did the research, found a local yoga class and somehow managed to convince me to sign up.   Goats and yoga - what could go wrong?

I've taken a lot of different yoga classes over the years and I can say with certainty that I have never taken one where giggling, snacking and taking pictures was encouraged. 🤳🏻 Goat yoga was unlike anything that I've done before but I had a blast.   If you ever get the opportunity to participate in one of these classes - I highly recommend it.  It's unforGOATable. 🤣

This is my take away from our goat yoga experience.  Goats are adorable, curious, fun and spunky little creatures that will eat absolutely anything.  (Earrings, loose t-shirts and pony tails seemed to be favorite snacks.  🤣 )  Nothing against the food preferences of a goat but my tastes are just a bit more discriminating.   How was that for a baa-aad transition to a recipe?  😂

It took me a long time to jump on the gnocchi bandwagon.  It's just not something that I grew up eating.  But since learning about how easy it is to prepare and how much my family enjoys it - I'm fully on board.  This Baked Gnocchi with Broccoli checks off all the boxes for a great weeknight meal.  It comes together in under 30 minutes, it's super tasty, it freezes well so you can make it ahead of time AND - it's got vegetables in it!!!  😂  🥦 ✓✓✓✓
