A holiday treat....Peppermint Milkshakes

Here is a tasty holiday treat you might enjoy, it's called Peppermint Milkshakes.  Here is the recipe:

Peppermint Milkshakes

8 cups vanilla ice cream

2 cups milk

1 cup crushed hard peppermint round candies (about 45-50 candies)

1 (8.5 oz.) can refrigerated  instant whipped cream

Peppermint sticks

    Process 4 cups ice cream, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup crushed candies in a blender until smooth, (process peppermint candies in a food processor for quick crushing).  Stop to scrape down sides as needed.  Pour into small serving glasses; top with whipped cream, and place a peppermint sick in each glass.  Repeat with remaining ingredients.  Yield: 9 1/4 cups

Sounds tasty! Have a nice day!

Christmas break!

Yay, we're on Christmas break, woo hoo!  And I'm all done with Algebra, woo hoo again!  I am so thrilled to be done with Algebra, I don't think I want to see that subject again.  I will be starting Geometry next semester, it should be easier....at least I hope it is. 

I was done early with schoolwork today since I worked ahead in my Switched on Schoolhouse work yesterday.  I also finished math early as well as my Biology Pace...no need in starting a new Pace with breaktime upon us.  So, I only had a lesson to do in "Literary Lessons from LOTR" and that was it.  Yesterday was nice because I got to read a Shakespeare play..."Macbeth".  Yes, it's depressing, but it is also full of intrigue and eventually ends well with the right man becoming king.  My mom has found it online, so I will probably be watching it soon. 

Now that we're on break, I will be going Christmas present shopping tonight with my mom and sisters.  We're pretty sure what we're getting for my dad, but we'll just have to shop around and see what will be nice for our brother.  After we're done, we will all stop by Burger King and get some free french fries they are giving out today....yay!

Have a great weekend!

Say it's not so!

Oh Albert, say it's not so!  Sigh, I cannot believe my favorite baseball player, Albert Pujols just signed a ten year contract with the California Angels.  How could that happen?  I have been a St. Louis Cardinals fan forever and now their best player ever has gone on to another team....I am so disappointed   Watching the Cardinals play baseball next year just won't be the same, sigh!

Yes, I'm a weird girl who likes baseball like her dad, lol, but life will go on.  Tomorrow is parade day here in our town, so at least I have something to cheer me up.  Before the parade, I will be going with my mom to get some donuts and hot cocoa, yay!  It's nice to eat a sweet breakfast while we wait for the parade to start, it will be a lot of fun. 

Sorry for the short entry, but not much else is going on here, school and music are going alright, and Christmas break is two weeks away......woo hoo!
