Berry Smooth Smoothies!

Hey Guys!

Pip again!  Do you ever just crave something for absolutely no reason?  One time I had a dream I was an ice cream taste tester and had to choose a winning ice cream!  I actually chose sorbet, instead of ice cream. The next day all I could think of was eating sorbet (which I had never even tasted before!)

Anyway, I'm sure you have had strange cravings.  A while ago I was craving smoothies, so I decided I would make a really good one. Usually when I make a smoothie, they don't turn out too fantastically.  Well, this time my family and I were in for a treat!  I made the best smoothies ever!!!!!!  Okay, maybe they weren't the best smoothies ever, but they were the best I have ever made. 



(Here is a picture of me making the smoothies.)  So would you like to make some fantastic smoothies?  If so, here is the recipe! 

Ingredients 

1 1/4 cup plain kefir

2 large scoops of vanilla ice cream

8 average sized ice cubes

1 cup frozen strawberries 

1/2 cup frozen blueberries 

1/4 cup milk (you could use coconut milk         
                         for a coconuty twist)
1/4 cup sugar


Mix everything in a blender. You might want to add only two ice cubes at a time of you don't have a really strong blender. 
This recipe makes about three 8 ounce servings.  



Ta da! Now sit back, relax and enjoy your berry smoothie!

I hope you all have as much success with your smoothie as I did with mine!

Love,
Pip

What Tech Week Looks Like + SURPRISES and Disappointments

Hey Guys! I’m really sorry.  I haven’t posted in quite a while, but I was very busy.  For now, let’s catch up on what been happening in this crazy life of mine, starting with tech week.    August 7 th This was our first day of tech week.  People always complain about it, because the cast doesn’t do much.  Just the crew.  But personally, I enjoy it the most.  Getting to the theatre, finding places for our costumes and filming.  Everything was great.  My favorite part was a little adventure after dinner…  Almost everyone was still eating, but I wanted to finish early and do my makeup in the dressing room.  After that I decided to join everyone again.  Out on stage I met up with two of my castmates.  Let’s call them Caleb and Blake.  I really wanted to go exploring the building, but not alone so the three of us went together.  First, we found some random rooms, then one full of lights.  After a little while we went outside.  There were these st

Friendship Day + What My Closest Friends Taught Me

Hello! How are you?  I still can’t believe it’s August.  I know I haven't been posting often, but I've been very busy.  Guess what?  Tomorrow is National Friendship Day!  I really wanted to do a post about it, but I'm trying to stick to my blog schedule, so I compromised and posted it today.     My friends have taught me lots of things .  Sometimes I’ve gotten a little bugged with them, and sometimes I’ve tried their patience.  But not matter what, we stick together.  Here are a few things I’ve learned from my three closest friends. Lolly (because who is a better friend than my sister?) Stand up for yourself.   Don’t ever let people walk all over you.  If they don’t care about you, then there is no reason to care about them. You are safe.  God will always protect you.  You are loved, and there is nothing that can change that. It’s okay to cry.  Just don’t lose hope.  Pip, you just need to sleep.  Everything will seem better

I'm Finally Back + Exciting News

Image via Pinterest Hey Everyone! I seem to have taken a brief (but much needed) blogging hiatus.  I was feeling a little discouraged and uninspired.  This time has helped me to refresh my mind while coming up with tons to talk about in upcoming posts.  And now, even when I finally post again, it's just a short one.   But   one filled with an exciting announcement...  I checked my number of followers sometime last week.  It was a measly 21.   This was the beginning of my blog burnout .  I was feeling discouraged.  On Saturday I checked my stats, and I had an amazing 90 followers!  It's amazing that people actually want to read my writing.  People all over the place are going to read these words I write. This afternoon I checked my stats and  literally squealed .  I now have  a gigantic 222 followers!   I don't know where all of this traffic come from, but I'm not complaining! As a celebration I'm doing a  giveaway !  I haven't figured out a
