5 Easy DIY Treats To Make This Summer
Rosanna Pansino

As you plan your lazy summer afternoon or your awesome pool party, take a moment to treat yourself with these five wonderful, cute recipes that have those summer vibes. All the recipes are easy to make and in no doubt, delicious. However, the further you read, the more challenging it will be!

1. Frozen Lemonade

A Dallas mom named Megan created this fun recipe. Click on the picture above or right here for full details of the recipe but it's really quite simple. Just put some lemonade with ice in a blender then, boom: frozen lemonade goodness. If you wanna add something exciting to it, add a scope of ice cream. Absolutely delicious and refreshing for those hot summer days!

2. 4th of July Ice Cream Cones

Need some added flare to your ice cream for this 4th of July? Well, with this super easy recipe by Rosanna Pansino is perfect! All you really have to do is coat the cone with melted chocolate then add some festive sprinkles all around it. It's nothing too crazy but it will at least catch many people's attention.

3. Classic Ice Cream Sandwich

It's so simple and obvious yet, I often forget that it's possible to make that. There are two ways you could make this. The first way is to squish together store bought cookies with your favorite ice cream flavor. The second way, which I think it more satisfying, is to bake your own cookies and squish them together with ice cream. Trust me, once you bake fresh cookies, you wouldn't want to buy store bought again. Recipe for homemade cookies can be found here.

4. Watermelon Rice Krispy Treats

This recipe takes a little more time to prepare but it's perfect for any summer outing! Basically, you melt marshmallows along with food coloring. Then you stir in your rice krispies into the two colored pots. Prepare a cake pan with some butter then outline the pan with the green rice krispies and the pink rice krispies for the center. Add in the chocolate for seeds and popsicle sticks to finish the look.

5. "Zootopia" Pawpsicles

Yes, it's possible to recreate the adorable ice popsicles from Disney's Oscar-winning movie "Zootopia." The talented Rosanna Pansino created this recipe on her YouTube show, "Nerdy Nummies." It only requires four ingredients to make and you would only need to buy a dog paw mold online. You would just combine all the ingredients in a blender and freeze them into the molds. There you have it—a delicious cherry pawpsicle. Perfect for a day by the pool or maybe for watching "Zootopia".

That's all for now! Thanks so much for reading! If you know a recipe for this summer, leave a comment down below. I'm always looking for something new to make.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
