This is the easy night.
1 cup of sugar
24 oz of water
8 cups of ice
Now, first I want to say these
measurements are more approximate than exact. I have a pitcher I use
for Kool-Aid normally and I wanted half the amount of water I usually
do, to make it more of a syrup than a drink. Then I filled our
blender with ice, it holds 8 cups.
- Mix sugar and Kool-Aid pack together in pitcher
- Fill pitcher with 24 oz of water. Mix till dissolved.
- Fill blender with ice and pour in Kool-Aid.
- Blend on high till slushee consistency. (think margarita style)
- Pour into glasses and serve with a straw.
This was super easy and fun. Since the
freeze brain part with the slushee is early in the movie we were
still drinking them when we got to that part. Tori has loved this
movie since it came out and she was 6. I realized when we were
watching it this time, Tori is now the age of Riley (the main
character). We talked about the brain and hormones and the changes
that happen at her age. I may have had a my baby is not such a baby
anymore moment.
That's why I love this movie. It is not
just focused on Riley dealing with her changes but the
personifications in her head dealing with it, much like parents do.
It's hard to see someone you think you know suddenly change. My
oldest turns 20 this year!! I don't feel old enough to have a 20 year
old. Having children 9 years a part kind of stretched that “I'm an
old mom” time out but I am embracing it more here in my 40th
year around the sun. I'm just glad my 11 year old still likes to do
these silly projects with me.
