Happy Weekend.


Watermelon `Otai Crush

2 cups cubed watermelon 
(with seeds removed)

1/4 cup fat free milk

4 packets of sweetener
(or a few teaspoons of sugar to taste)

3 cups ice

Fresh mint
(as desired)

Place all ingredients in blender and mix until blended.  Sit under a big umbrella somewhere sweet and enjoy.

`Otai is an "oh so yummy" treat from the islands of Tonga.  It's traditionally made with watermelon and coconut milk, this is just my "easy little healthy summer" version.


Oh, and also there's this...


Thanks Kim for sharing this photo of Jack Johnson, clearly he's taking out his frustrations of not yet having had me over for dinner on that poor little wave. 

Happy Weekend.



live sweet,
