Drinks - Frozen Orange Mango
A Luscious Creamsicle
Do you remember those frozen orange creamsicle ice cream pops? I had a mango and decided to make a frozen drink and added my favorite orange liquor with a little milk. I thought it would taste like creamy mangos but it tastes just like those orange creamsicles. What a joy! This frozen drink is delicious and easy to make.

Something to learn about nature while enjoying a frozen drink. Here are some pictures of the manatee tree snail that lives here in Central Florida.
The Manatee Tree Snail
I discovered this snail on my clothes line for drying beach towels. They live on the palmetto trees.
A Palmetto Tree
There are lots of palmetto trees and I always find manatee tree snails when I trim the fronds.

These little friends are harmless to the trees and they like to eat the algae and mold off the bark, leaves, and fronds.
