Mmmmilkshakes!

Due to severe lack of motivation creative energy, tonight was a leftover night. I had the remaining quesadilla triangles and some more corn salad. Aside from the slight sogginess due to reheating them in the microwave, they were still pretty yummy. Since I didn’t have to spend my time in the kitchen tonight, it seemed like a good opportunity to get some laundry done. Lately it seems I avoid it at all costs until puppy starts dragging clothes out to the living room from the basket overflow pile… yikes.

Puppy will only follow me as far as the top of the basement stairs. He will NOT, step a foot towards the basement. I don’t blame him, basements are a bit scary. Puppy will, however, wait patiently at the top of the stairs until I return. With laundry underway, we grabbed the leash and took off for a walk around the neighborhood. We even spent a few minutes in the grassy areas sniffing away. If Griffy was a little human he would be the one to go out of his way to jump in a puddle, I’m convinced. Tonight he spotted a piece of cardboard in the street and had to run over to it just to walk across it. Upon our return, I decided to make a milkshake…

Just a few simple ingredients, some ice cream, dark chocolate covered pretzels and vanilla Almond Breeze. I put a few scoops of ice cream, 4 broken chocolate covered pretzels and a half cup of Almond Breeze into my Magic Bullet and blended it all until it was milkshake consistency.

The pretty pink straws are optional, but I think they are a nice touch. The pretzels gave it a nice crunchy texture and the tiniest hint of salty in an otherwise sweet treat.

Now I’m off to fold a mountain of laundry and relax in the AC, yes, the humidity has returned and the AC had to come back on!
