Popsicles

There is nothing better than an icy Popsicle on a hot summer day.
My mom had to buy so many boxes of popsicles. We went through them very quickly!
Finally she just started buying the huge packs of these:
The Popsicle® ice pop was accidentally invented in 1905 by 11-year-old Frank Epperson. Epperson left a mixture of powdered soda and water and a stirring stick in a cup on his porch. That night San Francisco experienced record low temperatures, and Epperson awoke the next morning to find a frozen pop that would eventually become a favorite American treat.

Make some of your own this week.
Fill up ice cube trays with Kool-aid or a smoothie.
Dixie cups are also great molds for popsicles.
