It’s a wonderfully sweet, creamy blend, topped with whipped cream.

The best way to enjoy these is during the summer when it’s served as the Blackberry Green Tea Frappuccino Blended Crème. During the winter, I simply ask for raspberry syrup (instead of the standard melon)… it’s a close match.

At a whopping 500 calories, I’ve had to limit myself to just one a week– my Friday tradition. After all, I’m trying to get back in shape. :)

Spring Break was our first opportunity to ski since Tahoe last year (we were scheduled for Tahoe this year, but then things changed). We packed everyone up bright and early Monday morning and headed up to Meadows. The weather was fantastic… we skied under clear blue sky with bright sunlight, and no more than a slight breeze all day. Meadows extended their season until April 30, so we hope to squeeze in a couple of more trips.
