Strawberry treats!

The other day I got the great idea to buy a bunch of strawberries for strawberry freezer jam. Then I realized that that brainy idea would take work and I stuck the berries in the fridge for a later and more energized day. Unfortunately, that day never came. It wasn't until they were nearly rotten that I pulled them out of the fridge to work my magic. At that point, Mason and I blended them up and popped them in the freezer for a Summertime snack. One of these days I'll learn my lesson about procrastinating, but not today. They were a treat indeed! Even my otter pop fan liked them!


Sad proof that we don't always get dressed until the afternoon....and that I still wear my frumpy robe.

Now, when the weather is warm and we are in the mood for a mid-morning snack, we pull these bad-boys out of the freezer and have some good mother/son bonding.





Don't let this face fool you. He does really like them. I promise.
Who knows what we will (let sit too long in the fridge and) turn into popsicles next!

Nacho Libre?! I thought I was the only guilty-pleasure-loving fan. I snort through most of it.
And, yes, I know your blog hasn't anything to with this fine classic, but I was reading your profile. Go stretchy pants!

Hahaha...that face! Great timing in catching the sour-pucker shot. Those look yummy, too! They must be really good if Mason approves of them (since he's the Otter Pop king). You'll have to show me how. I might even have some rotting fruit in my fridge right now.

Love the pictures. I've been guilty of doing that before...buying bunches of strawberries and letting them go to waste...good idea for the homemade popcicles.
