One of the best parts about being a teacher is that on some days during the summer, I don't have to work. I get to spend time with T Money IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY. Seriously, that is such an awesome perk. We don't just play all of the time (I wish) but sometimes, ya know, when its 100 degrees here in Utah, we take out our ice cream and spoil ourselves with delicious ice cream treats. 

Some of our favorite frozen treats to cool down are the following items: 

SNICKERS® Ice Cream Bars
Dr Pepper® Cherry & Dr Pepper® Sodas
LifeSavers Hard Candy Variety 
Skittles 
M&M's® Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich 

We love to sit together and enjoy our "marital meetings" while eating these delicious ice cream treats with our yummy candy with them11

This is how we make it:
Step 1: Gather all materials- vanilla ice cream, Dr. Pepper Cherry soda, ice cream scoop, and a glass.

Step 2: Scoop 2 good size ice cream scoops into glass. 

Step 3: Pour soda into glass until fizz starts (the fizz is the best part!!!)

Such an easy and simple, yet delicious summer treat!

Rainy Day Activity: Captain America and M&M Chocolate Chip Cookies

Today was a rainy sunday. A day, I must admit, that I absolutely love. In my opinion, there is nothing better than curling up with your significant other, turning on a movie, making some yummy cookies and having a cozy evening. No worries except for just enjoying the company of each other. 
Luckily, T Money and I finally found something that we both wanted to do-- Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier and M&M’s Chocolate Chip Cookies. Do you guys ever go through this as couples? Where you can't seem to agree on something at a date night. For example, one of you wants to watch a different movie or have a different treat. Does that make sense? Or is that just us? Luckily, T Money and I teamed up with #HeroesEatMMs and #Collectivebias to enjoy a lovely, fun Sunday evening together. We love our date nights because these are nights that we have often after a long week together. 

Yesterday, knowing that we wanted to have a fun Sunday evening, Tanner and I headed to Walmart to pick up some yummy M&Ms and Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier. 
We stopped by the Retailment Event at Walmart that had some yummy yogurt and characters from Captain America. 

We found the M&Ms in the candy/snacks section of Walmart. Captain America was in the movie section in the back. 

Today, I came home and started making these cookies. 

First, I made the chocolate chip cookie dough. 
This is the recipe that I used that I sort of made up on the spot : 

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons half and half
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Half bag of Chocolate Chips 

To prepare the cookie dough, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla, salt, and half and half. Stir in the flour until incorporated. Pour in chocolate chips. Along with the chocolate chips, I included the M&M's in the dough to add a delicious taste. 

Wah la! These delicious cookies were made! 
We turned on our movie, ate this cookies and enjoyed a fantastic evening! 

Nothing better than a relaxing, rainy Sunday evening with a cute husband.
