One Of Those Days

You know those days when you have to drag yourself out of bed,
it's raining {again. still?},
your little one is working on getting teeth, and is miserable,
you have to grocery shop, and it takes you more than two hours,
plus another hour to put it all away when you get home,
and it's just . . . just . . . one of those days?

Me neither.

But, if I did . . .

I'd make one of these:
{you know, just to cheer me up.  Because food cheers me up, what can I say?}

Orangecream2

Orange Creamsicle
{cubes of ice, a splash of cream, orange soda,
stir it all together, add some whipped cream, and sprinkles, and voila!}

Come to think of it, it's pretty delicious on a good day too.

And the little lovies . . . they think it's somethin' special.

{No real oranges were used in the making of this drink. 
It is not healthy in any way. 
You're welcome}

Love the disclaimer! Food cheers me up a bit too I must say. Looks like a really yummy drink :)

Food makes me pretty happy, too. :O) I just pinned this. If I'd had to do something with that orange for the recipe, I'd probably have passed it up. Lazy, lazy, lazy...

I'm so glad oranges weren't used since I'm allergic to them but I absolutely LOVE orange flavored stuff.

I just wanted to tell you that I've had this drink pinned since you posted this and we FINALLY made them today! Took long enough, huh?

I used heavy cream for the splash of cream. Is that what I was supposed to use?
