    Thanks for all the fun links!

    I made blueberry syrup last night and this morning I made blueberry cream frapps! Oooh, so yummy! I had some blueberries that needed to be used up quickly so seeing your link to your recipe yesterday was just perfect!

    Oh, I am so glad you are enjoying the blueberry recipes. I can’t wait to go picking again and see what we come up with this year. We are headed to pick this month! I love the idea of adding the blueberry syrup to a frappe- yummy!!

    For the strawberry lemonade slushies- if you like a less watery and richer flavor slushy, don’t add the water. I fill the blender 3/4 full with frozen sliced strawberries and about 1/4 full of lemonade. We used to add ice, but we like them better not watered down.
    They are also incredibly tasty using a triple berry blend (blueberries, strawberries and black berries), along with the strawberries.
    Lastly, if you have any left over slushy, throw it into a popsicle mold, they are scrumptious!
    I love your notebooks each week, you’ve given me so many great ideas!
