What a wonderful idea.  I just bought some ice trays to make things like that and freeze in little squares and eat on these hot days.  Thanks for the idea!

HI CL, I do that too!  It really hits the spot at night if I am looking for something but don;t know what I want. It makes me feel like I am eating a dessert.

I found these pop cycle forms that come in a tray of 4 in really bright colors. I make about 8 at a time. I blend watermelon, frozen banana and a little apple juice and then fill the trays. Yummy!

I am guessing you can use any fruit you like. I also found a recipe that I sent to my daughter for my Grandson (I bought him the pop forms too!). The recipe is for orange juice and vanilla yogurt and it is supposed to taste like a cream cycle. I think that would be easy for LDL with the right ingredients. NO?

Any other ideas?

That is what is nice about LDL is that we are not deprived anything that everyone else is eating.  We just make it hearlthier.  If we just started serving it to everyone we could be example setters.  The bible tells us to set examples for others and they will follow.
Today I am popping frozen grapes.  I will be so glad when the heat wave breaks.  My luck when I go out to Sneaky Snoopy's I will take the heat with me and she doesn't have A/C, but is still will be good to see the kids.

Clown Lady, I had to smile when I read about hubby's shirt. Don't let him wander accross the Canadian border wearing it or we will capture him and claim him as one of us! :laughing:

I freeze very ripe bananas often.
I use them in smoothies this morning with OJ it was sooo good :)
I have them as frozen banana pop treats too they are also nice for children as they are less messy than pop cicles in their little hands.

I found the stair case to the second floor of the caboose.  Sorry to say right now I am too sore to climb the stairs.  I will have to visit again when my legs don't hate me so much.

Well miss Sneaky Snoopy for those who are disabled we do have a lift for you to make it to the observation tower. 
To day is another bueatiful day that the Lord has made. 
Still hot and humid so another cold treat today as we travel.  I think I will be making a fresh berry and banana smoothie for the afternoon chat.  And if you want I ice the tea today.

We are going into a heat wave.  For the next 4-5 days it will be over 100 with the heat index much higher.  I am going to stay in as much as possible and eat cold food. 
Today we have fresh picked ICE COLD WATERMELON.  COme on up for a slice or two and a chat.

Went to Wal-Mart last night to stock up for the weekend. Bought 2 watermelons. Seems as if they are not as proilific in the stores as they were last month. Hopefully the local crops will start flooding in soon! Looks like all of Oklahoma is their so-called heat buble. With God all things are possible...I am believing for rain! Need some rain dancin in the caboose. Would help the fires in California too. Where is that dancing emoticon?

Keep dancin' Storms are beginin' to show up on radar! Since I made grilled talapia and shrimp I am taking CQ's advice and having a hot drink. Not wanting to fix a pot of coffee right now, I decided on Tazo Spiced tea. I am trying it with the cinnamon flavored stevia. The aftertaste will take some getting used to. The Brand I bought was Sweet Leaf. It was the only liquid at the health food center. Is a different brand better?

I ready to climb the stairs up to the top of the caboose.  I would like a cup of Earl Grey tea please. 
I also am part Indian.  I will dance and send you the rain.  I don't like to drive in the rain.

I am dancing but there is not a cloud in the sky just a HEAT WAVE.  Big time.
Sneaky Snoopy Glad you see you make the stairs today and Earl Gray is brewing.  Personally I am going to the cold stuff.  There is a platter of fresh chilled fruits out for all to enjoy.
