Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I went and got those ice pop makers, I got it at Linens and Things. It makes 4 large ones, not those skinny ones that are out there. BUT, DOES anyone have a good idea how to make them w/o them tasting like a big ice cube?? I made them with Crystal Light, but the water all rises to the surface???

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Joyce, try clicking on the link below. What I did was to replace the 3/4 cup sugar with Splenda. then when I followed their suggestion to put the remaining amount in the freezer I had the same problem you did. I let it melt to nearly room temp and then put it in an ice cube tray. Then when I wanted some, I put the amount of slushy ice cubes in the food processor (blender) and voila: a slushy just the size I wanted. maybe this will be just as good or better than an ice pop? Is for me. JUDITH- here's the URL: http://www.kraftfoods.com/koolaid/2001/ka_slushies_rec.html > I went and got those ice pop makers, I got it at Linens and Things.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Great idea and I have a slushy maker, thanks. By the way, congrads on the dog contest, you did great proving them wrong. Bet your dogs are well trained out of love too, and not fear of their masters either. " TLC " Joyce Re: RE: " ICE POPS " ?? Joyce, try clicking on the link below.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Joyce, I have to say, the dogs I've seen in agility want to be doing what they are doing and working with their owners. It is different than obedience or other kinds of training. You simply can't make a dog go a zillion miles an hour or through tunnels or over various solid obstacles. These owners love their dogs! Maybe LOL it is people they are not so good with? thanks for the congrats. I have no idea if I'll do it again or not. Only time will tell and I will not compete in the hot summer months, but boy oh boy did we have fun and we will continue in our own back yard just because we enjoy each other's company. Maybe I'll join you in a slushy tonight :-) JUDITH > Great idea and I have a slushy maker, thanks. By the way, congrads on the > dog contest, you did great proving them wrong.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Judith, Did you watch any of the Crufts show? One of the 'dog' interest blurbs was on the agility competition & the latest breed to be entered was Pug! they did much better on the jumps, had some issues with the ramps & nearly the entire team ignored anything that resembled a tunnel! They were so cute to watch. Evidently there were people who had issues with them being entered since they are not traditional, but afterwards so many people were congratulating the people with the pugs, and those little pups were nothing but grins and flapping tongues by time they were done. I only wish I could get one of our dogs to run these courses, but he's a scent hound that loves everyone and no matter what I do, will not obey (or be bribed) unless he wants to..... Congrats on your competition! beth ps - keep us informed if your dog makes you do this again! > Re: RE: " ICE POPS " ?? > > > Joyce, > > I have to say, the dogs I've seen in agility want to be doing > what they are > doing and working with their owners.
