Avocado Milkshake!


* I already had half of it down before remembering to take a picture!

Yes you read correctly....AVOCADO MILKSHAKE!! LOL! :)
I love avocados and when my pal Merry had a recipe for this milkshake on her blog I just had to try it! It doesn't look very good but I was surprised at how much I liked the taste! My dad and husband enjoyed it as well but my mom .... well I don't think it was her cup of tea! :P

Recipe:
Avocado Milkshake

1 avocado
1 cup milk
4 ice cubes
Splash of vanilla
1 tbsp of sugar

Blend all together and enjoy!

Spirelli Birthday!



I used a new technique called spirelli on this card. You can find a tutorial HERE! So fun and incredibly easy! Added a silver sticker sentiment from the sticker store. Found a charm, ribbon, and doily in my stash for the finishing touches!

This type of card would be perfect for the upcoming challenge blog Unstampabelles! Not a stamp in sight and don't forget there is still time to go over to the challenge blog and sign up for the blog candy!!
