Notes to my Children

{A weekly portrait project}  13// 52

After a six month hiatus from Coca-Cola, we visited the World of Coca-Cola to welcome summer break! To say you guys were excited is an understatement....talk about "Opening Happiness!" I'll share more details on our visit tomorrow.

Luke: You're favorite flavor was the Vanilla Coke.

Jett: You're favorite flavor is Orange Fanta.

There are some things that are just meant to go together.  You know, like peanut butter and jelly, milk and cookies, iced cold Coca-Cola and vanilla ice cream.

We're having some good friends over for dinner tonight and do you know what I plan on serving for dessert?  Yep, Coke Floats!  It's the perfect summer treat that's quick, refreshing and doesn't require an oven which is a God send for summer entertaining in Georgia. This southern delicacy has been around forever but for those of you who may be living under a pile of rocks, here's the recipe.

Fill an ice cold glass halfway with iced cold Coca-Cola. Then add one or two scoops of vanilla ice cream depending on the size of your glass. Relax and enjoy!
