Shoo-wee!
Is it hot in your neck of the woods?
It has been unbelievably hot throughout
much of the US with indices well above 100!

Pulling weeds for about five minutes
the other night left me looking like I ran a marathon.
I was so happy when I received an email from
Taste of Home that included a recipe for a
strawberry spritzer. It is just what we
needed to help us cool our bodies.
STRAWBERRY SPRITZER
1 10-oz. package frozen sweetened sliced strawberries, thawed
2 liters lemon-lime soda, like 7up or Sprite
1 can pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
Place strawberries in blender; process until pureed.
Pour into large pitcher and stir in soda and
lemonade concentrate. Serve immediately.
HOW HOT IS IT IN OHIO?

My friend Kev has just got back home after spending 2 weeks in Woodstock. He's just been telling me about how hot it is out there but he loved it...I do hope you're not over heating!!
ReplyDeleteAH poor baby dog. I will have to try the drink. It is too hot. Stay cool.
ReplyDeleteYep, feeling that way down here today too!
ReplyDeleteIt is so hot that I'm only leaving the house when I have to. I feel trapped! I want to do a rain dance to cool things off! The drink looks yummy...it would be really good frozen to a slush texture too.
ReplyDeleteOh, that looks delicious!! And perfect for the heat...and oh my goodness, that dog is adorable!! I hope you have a great weekend AND I hope it cools down!!!

ReplyDeleteI just shudder when I hear the weather reports from down your way. If I could, I'd send you some of our cool North west breezes.
ReplyDeleteYum for the spritzer! And 'awwwwwwwwwwwwww' for the pooch on ice! Is he single?
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty darn hot here too! That spritzer sounds refreshing.
ReplyDeleteEvery week I host a recipe spotlight where foodies come and show off their recipes from the weekend I'd love for you to come on over and share a recipe or 2. Have a blessed day.

Looks like the dog has the right idea. It's even been in the low 90's in the usually cool NC mountains. Take care.
ReplyDeleteNow that is one hot doggie, lol. I love that photo. I'm in Ohio too....it has been hot here, but sure glad I'm not in Texas where my cousin lives....they're burned to a crisp! Keep cool :P
ReplyDeleteThat drink looks really good. Think I'll stop at the store tonight and get the ingredients. Kroger has some liter pop for $1 each.
