I am thirsty. So I was inspired to look up fun drinks to make and I came across blueberry lemonade. Nothing too exciting, but the combination of the two in liquid form sounds interesting--- I think I'll give a try the next hot day we have. :)
- Ingredients
- 1 cup plus 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- 1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 10 big lemons, including pulp but not seeds)
- Instructions
First make a simple syrup by combining 1 cup sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the mixture boils. Lower the heat and allow the syrup to simmer for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool. In a blender or food processor, puree the blueberries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. In a pitcher, combine the cooled syrup, lemon juice and blueberry puree. To serve, pour 1/4 to 1/3 cup of base into a glass and fill with water. Makes base for 12 servings.
OH! Today it rained. I spent a large part of the day listening to Bon Iver. When I wasn't, I was making cookies, dancing around the house with friends, playing the piano, or jumping in puddles. :) It was wonderful!
And, Today I invested in my hammock:
I'm planning a trip to Coolidge to try it out very soon!
Oh, and here is a video my cousin just shared with me. There's not much to it but it's peaceful and all. Sounds like spring:
Check it out. :)
Alright. It's raining and I'm ready to go listen to the rain hit my roof and window as I fall asleep. :)
Goodbye all!
