summer treats
hi! hope your week is going well! thank you all so, so much for all of the gender love.
we are so excited to welcome a baby boy this winter! yay!
currently listening to norah jones with a cup of hazelnut coffee and the today show
i love summer.
i have been pinning lots of refreshing and yummy summer treats lately so i thought i would share my favorites with you… enjoy!
root beer floats were def. a favorite of mine as a little girl… we would make them often! my dad traveled a lot so my mom, sister, and i would often treat ourselves to homemade floats/shakes and movie nights – using our popples sleeping bags!
{my family had the new beer that taste like root beer last weekend and although i couldn’t try it… they loved it! i will be trying after baby boy arrives- maybe as a root beer float!}
{i love to use whip cream and then put them in the refrigerator for a bit to chill}
…
on another note, i am simply loving persian rugs lately!
how beautiful is this one?!
what’s your favorite summer treat!
stop in tomorrow for my bump update- week fourteen 🙂

I loved root beer floats too. I used to get the black cow at the old Walgreens diners. Do you remember them. The Black Cow was root beer and chocolate ice cream. Yummy . 🙂

Those blueberry coconut cashew bars sound amazing! I'm a huge cookie ice cream sandwich fan…I definitely need to follow your advice of doing it with whipped cream, because that sounds easier (and I LOVE whipped cream!).
