Photo Gallery: Blue, Gold

 

Hello, all! :) This here is a photo shoot I did today. I LOVE the first two. I thought that field was a good idea, and it was. :)

 

                                

 

 

 So there we have it. Hopefully I can dig up some more interesting posts for the days ahead. :)

 

 

 

Photo Gallery: Forest

 

         Hi, here's the day's "Photo Gallery".  I. Love. Forest. <3 It's such a wondrous place, where you can be alone and take in God's creation under a canopy of lush green trees. Forests kind of "enchant" me. This one isn't as enchanting as my dream forest. But I love the woods! (:

 

 

     

  Okay, now these are more like my dream forest. I found these pictures online.

 



Well, there we go. Hope my "forest" pictures were interesting  enough. (:

Season's Sensation: Peanut Butter and Banana Freezer Bars

                        
                                  Peanut Butter and Banana Freezer Bars


1 banana



1\4 C ground almonds

about 1\4 tsps. vanilla

2 tsps. baking cocoa

3 T honey

1\2 C peanut butter

1\2 C Greek yogurt

small chunks of dark chocolate (use however much you want)

crust:

about 1C + 2 T ground oatmeal and your choice of nuts

3 T butter, melted

1 t baking cocoa

------------

In a medium bowl, mix banana into mush first, then add the rest of the ingredients. Put aside. Mix together ground oatmeal and nuts with cocoa in a 9x9 pan. Mix butter in and press down on bottom of pan. Pour ingredients from the bowl evenly over crust. Freeze until firm.

(keep in freezer until right before serving, because they become soft fast.)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




   So there is another good summer treat. I made this up recently in another "baking challenge" with some of my younger siblings. It's quite fun. :D And the good thing about these is that they are both good and perfectly healthy. Its great to get a recipe like that where pretty much everything is good for you. :)
  Well, better go now. :) :)

My Favorite Screen Characters

  Okay. I was tagged in the "Favorite Screen Characters Tag", by Shantelle H. I don't think I really have anyone to tag, but I'll do it anyway. (:
I don't know if all of these are really my favorite characters, but I like them all.



Willie Lahay from Love's Enduring Promise, Love's Long Journey, etc..                  

Willie <3 He's just wonderful. Those back-in-the-old days guys, you know... :)




 
Jack Thornton from the When Calls the Heart TV series
                                            
 Jack is most definitely a favorite movie character of mine. (: The heroic Mountie. <3





Elizabeth Thatcher from the When Calls the Heart TV series
                                             






Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice, (2005)
                                     


I really like the regency movies. <3 Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorites.

Prince Caspian X from Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Caspian has to be one of my favorite Narnia characters. :) If not my favorite.  

 

Turiel and Legolas from The Hobbit

                                     
   Okay, this makes 11 characters instead of 10 for me... But how do I just pick one of these elves? I like them both. Elves are so fascinating. :)





Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon and How to Train Your Dragon 2

 Hiccup's story is so good... these movies are quite unique. I really like Hiccup. :)

  Who doesn't like Flynn Ryder? He's just great. :D

And of course, Rapunzel. (:






Okay, so there are some of my favorite screen characters. :):) As I said before, I don't really have anyone to tag, so...

Well, I hope that was entertaining. :)

Season's Sensation: Watermelon Slushies :)

 

   Yay! Summer is finally about here. :D Sun starts burning hot... and school comes to and end! Swimming and free time... Reading, taking pictures and drawing the days away. Sounds great. ;D

     

   Okay, so this blog kind of needs some organizing. Some of my posts tend to be a little bland, so I'm gona start doing posts every once in a while called "Season's Sensation", featuring a seasonal ideas, food, crafts... I don't know, whatever I think of. Something planned will do my blog some good. :)

And I'll call my photography dedicated posts, "Photo Gallery" posts, or something. Okay, now I've got some organization. So that's that. :)

 

 

  So first I have this "summer sensational", delicious and refreshing treat to share here. :) Its perfect for the hot summer, so consider freezing some well ripened watermelon to make some of this with. Especially one that is over-ripe, and doesn't taste "the best" fresh.

 

And watermelon + lemon + cold = especially refreshing. ;D 

 So, here is how you can make this Watermelon Slushy:

                             *****
Fill blender with frozen watermelon chunks.

Add lemon juice to taste, 1 T sugar, and a pinch of salt.

Blend well. Melts fast, so eat it quickly. :)

                            *****

 (Servings are about 4 or so, depending on your blender size, and how big a serving you want.)

 

 

       Okay, so here are some pretty recent pictures...

 

    Okay, there we have my first June post! :) Hopefully I'll get some more good Season's Sensation ideas.

Happy June, everyone! :) :)
