Springtime + Popsicles







Went on a marine biology trip for the end of last week down to Skidaway Island, just to come back here and find that it was the same temperature! 80 degrees and super sunny! It is making me nervous about how hot summer is going to be, but other than that I am totally embracing it.

Took a nice walk today after I finished my LAST PAPER for high school ever... can't believe that is true. Soaked up the sun, and stared in awe of the beauty that spring brings. Day dreamed about how delicious a popsicle would taste and figured out what kind I would make once I got home. Quickly put together pineapple, coconut, and date popsicles so they will be ready to enjoy tonight.

Pineapple, Coconut, and Date Popsicles
Inspired by Whole Living's Date Shake Popsicles
1 can half-fat coconut milk
2-3 cups pineapple
5-10 pitted dates (depending on how much you want and how big they are)
1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. You can chop some of the dates to stir in at the end for some nice chunks in the pops. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze till ready to eat.

Cheers to flowers blooming, pollen falling, and popsicles for lickin'
