POPSICKLES-summer treat

I love Popsicles..they are so easy to make at home and the variations are endless.
You can make them fruity,creamy,chocolaty,nutty,savory or you could even turn your green smoothie into a Popsicle.Kids just love them and if you make them right they are even good for their health.Here are some of my favorite variations.
