Don't you just love a good milkshake...

We love 'em...
especially Vanilla...





...in a frosted glass...







especially delicious with
 these pretty
Maple Creme cookies and juicy, crisp grapes 




(and I wonder all the time if anyone else loves the colors turquoise and lime together for summertime..)










If you like maple, these little maple leaf cookies, filled with the best maple filling are something you will want to try..

She never bothers food on the outdoor table..
oh, she sniffs...
but all you have to do is say NO, MA'AM
and she moves  along.

...I could look at this bright blue and white float all day...
just pleasing to my eye, I guess.



A good grade of ice cream..

a cap full of Vanilla....

milk...

DELISH...

and we aren't above adding fresh fruit 




 Summer love to all, bj

    I'm a chocolate shake person myself, but even a vanilla one sounds cool at this point. We have a wildfire going west of town in the mountains -- lots of ash and smoke in the air -- and it's hot outside, too. Pray for those affected by the fire. Thanks. Sally

    My grandma always kept a bag of those maple leaf cookies in the cupboard when I was a little girl. Canadians love them!

    I think vanilla shakes are a summer staple. I remember when I was little and we lived with grandma and grandpa on the farm, on a hot day grandma would make us all vanilla shakes. Vanilla ice cream was her favorite, sometimes with a little peanut butter stirred in when she had a little dish of it every night. Those shakes were the best after a hot day playing in outside or mowing the lawn. Those shakes were always our reward if we had chores to do. Thanks for bringing that memory back for me BJ. :)

    Hi bj... have not had a milkshake in like...forever, but sure sounds good. We do eat ice cream pretty often though. This summer, we have been treating ourselves to a Dairy Queen MINI banana-split blizzard after Mr.Z's physical therapy sessions. Really affordable with the discount card ... two for $2.50 ... so for less than $3.00 we can enjoy this ice cream treat full of fruit. Almost good as a milkshake. Enjoy your summer ... the pool looks great.
