Copy Cat Orange Julius Drink

Mr. Devilish Dish is spoiled rotten.  Like a spoiled rotten egg.  Every night after dinner he says two things.  "Good Dinner Mom." Followed by, "What's for dessert?"  I love to make desserts so we do have dessert fairly often.  Probably more often than we should.  But when it's 500 degrees outside I don't feel like baking.  And (blasphemy) I don't like ice cream that much.  So what do you do when you have a spoiled husband that wants dessert but the Oklahoma weather dictates you never go near your oven in the month of August?  Well...you make Copy Cat Orange Julius drinks, that's what.  Remember these from your cool days at the mall?  When you hung out with your friends, got new stickers for your sticker album and checked out the latest records?  And the new Hello Kitty stuff from Sanrio?  And then you went to the food court and scoped out cute boys and drank Orange Julius?  Well now you can do that at home, look at the cute boy on your couch and stay cool. 

Bet you never had your Orange Julius in
a cool glass like this at the mall!
