Popsicles in July

Was out in my backyard garden taking butterfly photos and stayed longer than planned. The two butterfly bushes were covered and I kept snapping photos. It was hotter than I thought and I stayed out too long. 96 F on the thermometer with the humidity is too hot. That is how much I love butterflies. Came in to cool off and after some cold water, I headed for the popsicles in the freezer. Banana is my favorite flavor but I also enjoy cherry and orange. How is your day going? Do you like popsicles, if yes, do you have a favorite flavor?

I actually was addicted to banana popscicles from Walmart one time. That sounds really dumb, but I was just eating too many and when I got upset the time Walmart was out of popscicles, I knew I had a problem. I quit and it really wasn't hard. I still eat one at times, but they're just not quite as good.

@CarolDM That's true. They're so refreshing, but I was eating probably ten a day.

Addicted, that is funny. I like them a lot when it is hot. They cool you down pretty fast. I guess you can get addicted to anything.

I'm not over fond of popsicles (they tend to be too sugary) but I do love smoothies made with frozen fruit!

It is a frozen treat. Made with sweet flavors. Cherry, grape, orange, banana, and many more.

what a blessin' to've that many! i'm out fer hours jest tryin' to catch a couple when they land, lol. then 'gain, i've no longer a butterfly bush. used to've a huge pink ('twas o'er 10' tall) 'n a deep purple 'fore the years 'f drought. hmm, i wonder if'n mamaw's butterfly bush's survived? might need to go take a look'n the daylight hours. possibly move 't here? i make my own popsicles. 'lways make more 'f my smoothies than i can drink'n a sittin', so got some 'f those lil baggies fer such :) the pups love 'em, too. 'tis a mixture 'f flavors 's most oft 'tis orange, blueberry, naner, strawberries 'n honey.

I'm not very keen on popsicles but they're great on a hot day. I'd much rather have ice-cream.

I used to like popsicles when I was a kid but now I prefer ice cream. We have a very nice ice cream stand about a 15 or 20 minute drive from us. Definitely worth the trip.

I like both as well as sherbert. We have an ice cream truck in the neighborhood. The kids love it. Also love snow cones.

@CarolDM I remember ice cream trucks from when I was a kid. They don't have them in Chicago. Some pushcarts but not trucks. Do they still have bomb pops? Those were my favorite.
