Frozen Treats

Making and eating lots of frozen treats. Yesterday I had frozen grapes for the first time. I can't decide whether I like them or not.

Mom and dad just left yesterday from their visit. I felt like they got a pretty good idea of what Austin was like while they were here. Sometimes people visit and I feel like they didn't get the whole Austin feel during the visit.

Lots to look forward to this week: Friday evening a work party for Eric's work and we have Monday off! Austin can't have fireworks this year, so I guess we will have to make up for that with extra food?






(I know this is a stretch here, but I'm going to tag this frozen banana under "popsicles".)

nutella + greek yogurt popsicles

I'm in love. The frozen nutella tastes like a fudgesicle but much better. The rich and sweet nutella is perfect next to the tart yogurt. Idea stolen from here.

Eric and I are rewatching Freaks and Geeks. I never watched it until recently; the show got so much hype I figured it was way overrated (perhaps like the band Wilco..). But man it kills me that there isn't more than one season of this show.

I didn't bake bread this past weekend. Sunday I slept most of the day before Sunday Family Dinner because of our late(/very fun) night.

creamy banana pear popsicles.

I needed to use the last couple pears from the farmer's market, so I made creamy popsicles.

2 small pears + 1 banana + plain yogurt + agave nector + vanilla soy milk

The pears were similar to asian pears, but really really sweet. I've never had a pear anything like these. The popsicles are great, but I think I wouldn't puree the banana next time around. I got one banana chunk in the popsicle and I really liked it.
