Strawberry Popsicles

Popsicles are all the rage in blog land this week. Happy to say I made my own last weekend. I have made popsicles before, but not with fresh fruit. I like the buy the frozen fruit popsicles at the store, so I wanted to re-create those at home. I almost did it. I know what I did wrong, and will correct next time. These are delicious, don't get me wrong - but not the total fruit flavor I was going for. I will post the recipe with my changes for next time.

I will leave you with this 1 last strawberry post until next week. Now I am off to go run an extra mile or two for all the stuff I have been eating. Vacation is coming up, and I need to get in shape!

Strawberry Popsicles

Mash strawberries with a fork. Stir in sugar. Let sit for 20 minutes to get all juicy. Pour into molds (or paper cups if you don't have molds), and Freeze!
