Key Lime Shake / Smoothie

"Oh Blogging Muse , invoke me with some charm , to cook , click and post . 

 Bless me with it ,  If you want me to run this again" .....

(With a change in tone)
......Ah I could feel a bit of the spell , you send me 

But mind you , a bit couldn't get me do wonders

Do I really need to ask you this all the time?

Why wouldn't you let it flow freely? .......

Guys I am not crazy... I don't know why, I didn't cook anything last week and was living on take outs, salads and ready to eats!!! Can you believe it, me of all the people , who hates to order take outs , doing that all weekdays last week? But the only positive thing I did was getting myself hooked onto Politics , Philosophy and Psychology with  Rousseau, Kant and Nietzsche... .

But weekends were a different story , had a party at friends place and the gracious hostess packed me  leftovers , and have it even for today.

What is your favorite summer thirst-quencher?? For me, its always different colored lemonades , Sambharam and OJ ( if it is a thirst quencher at all). I was sick and tired of the same things again and again ; after seeing the recipe in Good Housekeeping, tried it and we loved it . It was a cool and creamy drink for the warm weather and we enjoyed it a lot.. 

The sweetness of ice cream and added sugar balances the tartness of the lime juice.
