| Orange Dreamsicle Float - ButterYum |
I don't know what the weather has been like where you live, but it's been raining here for days and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight. We need the rain, but the dark gloomy days have started to wear me down and my body is craving sunshine.
Desperate for a quick fix to temporarily excape the dreariness, I decided to treat myself to this bright and cheery ice cream float which tastes like a yummy Dreamsicle Bar. Whether you need a pick-me-up or not, this cool and creamy treat is sure to put a smile on your face.

This looks like sunshine in a glass! This was my all time favorite ice cream bar as a kid. Cost all of five cents.
ReplyDeleteI love anything that is orange cream! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteI just about sprained my finger trying to click on the link to get to this page. Sometimes the simplest things are the best, eh? This is definitely a reminder that summer is upon us. I want, I want, I want!
ReplyDeleteA tatsy reminder of summer.

Mmmmm.... these look really good! I wonder if you could turn them into popsicles. Now that would be heaven!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Wish I had one now:@)
ReplyDeleteI agree after you eat one tall frosty glass of goodness:) place ingredients in cups then freeze and MMMM wait for it...wait for it...enjoy the frozen frosty goodness!
ReplyDeleteThanks for Sharing
~~HUGS~~
When we had these with my grandparents growing up, my grandma called them orange cows. Don't ask me why other than they were dairy farmers and ice cream comes from milk. Makes me miss her more than ever!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite treats and flavor combination. Looks so delicious and I can't remember the last time I had one of these. I'll be looking for orange soda in the store very soon.:)
ReplyDeleteMmmm I adore the dreamsicle flavor. This looks fantastic!

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping in at Cranberry Morning! Baking bread is really very easy. Just follow that recipe and it will turn out just like those. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy heart did a little flip when I saw that Dreamsicle photo. When I was little, the ice cream man used to stop in and my mom would buy dreamsicles that we would get as a treat now and then. NOTHING like orange and ice cream. I loved them!! This looks fantastic...and nostalgic. :-)
I think I like Orange Dreamsicle Floats. In fact I'm sure I like Orange Dreamsicle Floats. :-)

Dearest Patricia,
ReplyDeleteHope you got your Sunshine! May there be a wonderful Easter Weekend for you, after Good Friday passes. Sorry I react late but we were gone and I was way behind with blogging...
Lots of love and even more SUNSHINE,
Mariette
Congratulations, you are featured on Full Plate Thursday this week, enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHi Patricia,
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know you haven't received your book yet. I sent your address off to the publishing company and heard back from them on Monday. Hopefully you will get it in the next few days. Let me know if you don't and I'll contact them again! Thanks Patricia!

I am currently craving barbecue potato chips and now I'm wanting a tall ice cold orange soda. yum!
ReplyDeleteThis would taste amazing! So refreshing. Great combination of flavours!
ReplyDeleteI love making these! Until recently, I never even thought to make a float with anything other than root beer! I usually let mine sit for a few minutes before I eat it to give the ice-cream a little more time to blend with the soda; the "creamsicle" taste shines through better that way. Delicious, easy, and perfect for summer! :)
