Today Sarah from Hope in Every Season is our official party host and is sharing her AMAZING Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe! YUM! If I wasn't leaving for church camp in less than 24 hours, I would totally make some to take with me. I just don't have enough time left in my day to whip some out. But, I will be making some when I get back!

I am ALL about the sweets this week!  Here are my top 3 Sweet Treats that you all posted last week!

Growing up we had 2 apple trees, in the summer I would get up EARLY and go pick apples from the trees and bake apple pies for my grandpa. Yeah, I was sweet like that every once in a while.  ;-)  When I saw this Apple Crisp recipe from Lisa over at Cooking with Curls it brought back all those sweet memories. I can't wait to try this crisp! YUM!

These Salted Caramel Swirl Applesauce Brownies look AMAZING! I can't wait to give them a try! Anyonita from Anyonita Nibbles share these with us and I am SO glad she did! She has some pretty awesome recipes on her site, be sure to check them out!

Kaysi of Keeping it Simple shared these YUMMY Frozen Smoothie Pops with us! Don't they look devine? The HOT summer months are just around the corner (late July and August are the worst here), these would be perfect to help keep you and the kids cool! The best part? They are totally healthy! WooHoo!

Top 5 Summer Time Treats

Summer hasn't "officially" started yet but by the temps here, it sure seems like it has! With Summer comes yummy treats! Isn't it funny how our taste for things change with the season? Maybe it is just because I HATE using my oven during the hottest time of the year. During the summer months I prefer cold treats, both savory and sweet. Today I am sharing with you my Top 5 Summer Time Treats!

The girls and I headed out to Walgreens last night to pick up some Pepsi and Frito Lay products. They were having a great sale on Pepsi Products and, I needed to pick up some chips for my treats, and also lunch this week.

First up is a cool savory summer time staple, Chips and Guac! I LOVE making my own homemade guacamole, it is super easy and tastes 1000x's better than store bought. All you need is 1-2 Ripe Avocados per person, Lime Juice, Tomatoes, Onion and Garlic Salt and Pepper to taste. Each time I make it I put different amounts of everything in so I really don't have a set recipe. I ALWAYS serve my guacamole with Tostitos Tortilla Chips, no other brand will do.

Next on my list is Root Beer Floats. A few years ago I bought a few different brands of root beer and did a little taste test. Our favorite? Mug Root Beer, it is SO good! Since my girls are still little, they never finish an entire root beer float, I started making them mini size and they got the BIGGEST kick out of them! Plus, it helps me not to over indulge, I get just enough to satisfy my craving.

Around here there are two HUGE rivalries. Are you an OU or an OSU fan? Do you drink Coke or Pepsi? For us, we are OSU fans and we drink Pepsi, and Pepsi prosucts! For my family, Pepsi is a tradition that started generations ago. My Great Grandpa Adams ALWAYS had to have a Pepsi and my Grandpa usually capped his not off with a giant bowl of popcorn and a nice cold Diet Pepsi. Since we always had Pepsi in the house growing up, during the summer I would make Pepsi Freezes. All you do is pour a can of Pepsi into a plastic cup and freeze overnight. When you are ready to enjoy just take your cup out of the freezer. You can scrape it with a fork and put it in a separate cup but, I just use a spoon and the cup I froze it in. Plus, this is something SUPER easy for the kids to do!

What summer picnic is complete without a PB&J Sandwich? Why not take it up a notch and add.....chips! Yep! I remember MANY school trips to the Zoo, I would always have a PB&J Sandwich and add some Lay's Potato Chips to it! YUM! Just make a regular PB&J sandwich and before you put it together, add 4-6 chips. You can thank me later, your kids will also love this!

This Strawberry Pretzel Dessert is AMAZING! It is the perfect dessert to take to family gatherings. It is SO easy to make! The hardest part is waiting long enough to allow it to set up before digging right in! I seem to always have Rold Gold Pretzels just hanging out in my pantry, what better way to use them than cover them with cheesecake and strawberries? HELLO!

This weeks official host is Vanessa from The Rookie Seamstress! I have known Vanessa for at least 4 years and just adore her to pieces! This week she is sharing a great, and super frugal, Father's Day Gift Idea! Be sure to stop by her sight to see how she made this cute gift, you aren't going to believe the price!

This weeks top 3 posts are all recipes. Sorry, I just couldn't help myself. The fact that I am starving right now MIGHT have played a bit of a role as well. I encourage all of you to check out the links from Week 9!

First up is this YUMMY looking Mason Jar BBQ Sauce from Keri at Shaken Together! I have been trying my hand at making my own BBQ sauce and can not wait to try hers! I am pretty particular about my BBQ sauce flavor but reading the ingredients, I am thinking I will really like hers!

Next are these Banana Chocolate Muffins from Christine at The DIY Dreamer. I LOVE that her 7yo daughter made these! I have GOT to get Mads in the kitchen more or that girl is never going to learn how to cook! I also need to be more trusting with her in there helping me. I think this is a great recipe to start her with!

Finally I fell in love with this Fresh Strawberry Lemonade recipe from Aniko at Place of My Taste. You can't tell me that is not one of the prettiest drinks you have ever seen! I can not wait for a summer picnic so I can serve this!
