A Bike & A Mountain Flower & An Ice Pop


When in the mountains, my boys and I like to ride our bikes. Wild flowers, mountain streams and lakes attract us. Ice Pops hit the spot when we arrive home hot and dusty. Try making a different batch each night. The fruit and juice give you a pop of carbohydrate and the yogurt a little protein. Perfect.

A Popsicle sweet and sticky dripping down your arm on a hot summer day is a favorite childhood memory.
