Let’s Make POG Juice

When we visited Honolulu, we fell in love with a tropical beverage called POG Juice. Its fruity, sweet, and delicious. I hoped and hoped that I could find it locally, but it wasn’t meant to be, so I’ve worked up a recipe that is almost as tasty as the POG juice from Hawaii. The recipe is simple, it’s equal parts juice, and you should be able to find all of the ingredients at your store too, so here we go.

Get your pitcher ready and add in 3 cups of Passion Fruit Juice

025

Then add in 3 cups of Orange Juice

027

Last but not least, add in 3 cups of Guava Nectar

Guava Nectar is such a pretty rosy color.

Stir the mixture well, and serve this POG Juice chilled.

POG Juice is delicious all on it’s own, or you can always serve it alongside your favorite breakfast.

Enjoy this tasty treat! A small warning though, this juice will disappear as fast as you can make it, my picky family loves it. Give it a try, and let me know what you think.

Local Happenings: Community Garden

I’m really excited about this new community project, and it’s within walking distance from my place. A local business has turned an empty lot into a very useful space, they’ve made a Community Garden.

It will be planted soon, and it will be a great way for our community to have access to delicious and healthy foods.

I can’t wait to see all of the beds planted with veggie plants all in a row.

What a fantastic addition to our community.

3 Home All The Time

I seriously can’t wait for school to be out this year! I’m like a little kid about it… We’ve made a countdown to the end of the school year on the calendar, and every day we cheer for one less day to go. I’ve missed having all of my kiddos home, they are in need of a break from the routine, me too.

I’m looking forward to day trips, lazy days, and hopefully the kiddos sleeping in past 7:00 a.m.

0012

I also can’t wait for Fish Fry’s, BBQ’s, and special trips out for Ice Cream for the kiddos. Hurry up Summer!!!

What about you, what are you looking forward to as the school year is coming to an end?

Tiny Garden Life

The garden is finally starting to sprout, and I heard from the kiddos that they have found a toad in the backyard. I hope he sticks around and helps out by keeping those icky bugs away from our little plants.
