Mango Lemonade Smoothie :P

Here is how to make a smoothie-ish type of drink. 

Get your drink of choice!!

Get a blender

Add 1 cup of ice!

Add 1 cup of your juice. 

Pour it in!!

Blend. 

It'll look kind of like this!

Yum!! I had to add a bit of sugar, because the drink lost a bit of its flavor. 

Enjoy!!!

God bless!

Aubree Walle's 15th and Most Special Birthday. (11/21/15)

Hey everyone this is one of the most special posts (to me) out of all of the ones from this year! The reason is, because it's my best friend Aubree's 15th birthday!! And we're celebrating it at El Cids!

Bree and I got there early to chat, and then Kyra, Sarah, Laney, and Bree's relatives (and parents) showed up. 

This is a cute picture! ^

There's Laney!

Kyra (left); Sarah (right)

Bree getting ready to open the best gift of the evening... Her first phone! It's an HTC. We all sent her a birthday message before she got the gift. 

Here is Sarah with Bree's ADORABLE little sister Amber. She's really hyper today!

Bree opening her gift while everyone else was telling her "OPEN FASTER!" Except for me...lol. 

Me helping her out opening it. She was so excited to get it!!

Sarah and Kyra. Sarah got upset with me for taking a video and taking a picture. 

Bree's AWESOME cake!! Can you tell me what the key signature is, and what the song is on the outside?

Bree blowing out her candles. 

This is one of my most favorite posts that I will always love. This is also one of the best days that I have ever had for this year! 

God Bless You Bree!! Happy birthday!!

This is a night that you will never forget!

A Students' Attitude Towards A Teacher vs. A Substitute. (11/10/15)

So Kael (if I got his name right) is always sleeping in class. So...

Russell copied him and we made a joke...

When A Regular Teacher Is In The Classroom:  

When there is a substitute teacher:

Yeah. It was strange. 

Anyways. TTFN!

My First Home Made Frappé! (And the recipe for how to make it).

Hello everyone!! Today I felt like making a frappé and I didn't want to waste $5-$6 on one from Starbucks. So here it goes 

You'll need a blender...

1 cup of ice cubes (what you can do is take a tray, fill as many as you can with the one cup of water, and thus, you'll find out how many you'll need. But you might want to add one more ice cube)...

⅓ of a cup of expresso. Or strongly brewed coffee. (I just used more than ⅓ of a cup of coffee. But NOT quite ⅔ of a cup of coffee)...

Add the ice and coffee to the blender...

There goes the coffee!

Then use the SAME amount of milk as you did coffee/expresso. (So more than ⅓ of a cup but less than ⅔ of a cup)...

Then add 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar (NOT Powdered!)...

Then add 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup (ANY kind works)...

You should get something like this! Now you need to blend it! I'm using the "pulse" button to blend this, and I have mine set to the purée setting. But you can do whatever your blender allows you. 

There it goes!

Blend it to the desired consistency, and STIR & MIX. 

Then pour!!

I used a Starbucks cup to add to the "effect" I'm definitely going to make these during college!! Enjoy!
