Tropical Milkshake

 Today is the final day of our National Dairy Month celebration.......

Jolene of Jolene's Recipe Journal has done a great job of hosting this event.  She invited us to share our Dairy recipes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday this week in honor of National Dairy Month.

On Monday I shared a recipe for Milk Cookies and on Wednesday I shared my friend Kirsten's Eclair Cake.  I am finishing up this week with an amazing milkshake recipe but first let's look at what the others are sharing today......


Girl with Milkshake

My regular readers know about my "adopted" granddaughter Raechel.  Her mom, Tami, is a dear friend who has been a part of my life since Rae was just an itty bitty.  Well, as you can see, Rae is all grown up now.  She graduated High School this year and is headed to Michigan State where she hopes to major in Hospitality and Food Service. 

I'm very excited for her and excited to announce her entrance into the blogging world.  She is just brand new but you can find her at Hot Girl Eats.  I intend to invite her into some of our blogging groups and blogging events and I hope you can all show her some love.  She is using wordpress with which I am not too familiar but I assured her that many of you use wordpress and would be happy to answer any questions she has.

Tropical Milkshake

This milkshake is filled with the flavors of the tropic, banana,kiwi, pineapple, mango and strawberry.  It is refreshing, delicious and the perfect ending on a hot summer day.
