Project Pinterest: Pineapple Whips

When I saw this pin on Pinterest I knew I had to make it. It looked so good and refreshing.

Original recipe

Tuesday was the day! It was a warm day and all the ingredients were on hand.

Pineapple Whips
*the original recipe can be found here. The recipe below is with my few adaptions.

40 ounces crushed pineapple with juice
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/3 cup sugar
1 and 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped
Drain pineapple; reserve 5-6 tablespoons juice. Set aside. Place pineapple, lemon juice, sugar and 3 tablespoons pineapple juice in blender and blend until smooth. Pour into two 1-quart freezer zipped bags and store bags flat in freezer. Freeze 1-1/2 hours. Stir pineapple slush gently into whipped cream in large bowl. Return to freezer until completely frozen, about 1 hour (I had mine in for 3 hours and it was still a good consistency). Just before serving, whip some more heavy cream with the rest of the reserved pineapple juice. Top each serving of the whip with a dollop of whipped cream.  

They were delicious!

Sweet Will of God

Teach me to do Thy will; for Thou art my God: Thy Spirit is good. ~Psalm 143:10


:: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: ::

Sweet Will of God
words by Leila N. Morris

My stubborn will at last hath yielded;
I would be Thine, and Thine alone;
And this the prayer my lips are bringing,
Lord, let in me Thy will be done.

I’m tired of sin, footsore and weary,
The darksome path hath dreary grown,
But now a light has ris’n to cheer me;
I find in Thee my Star, my Sun.

Thy precious will, O conqu’ring Savior,
Doth now embrace and compass me;
All discords hushed, my peace a river,
My soul, a prisoned bird, set free.

Shut in with Thee, O Lord, forever,
My wayward feet no more to roam;
What pow’r from Thee my soul can sever?
The center of God’s will my home.

Refrain:
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer;
Till I am wholly lost in Thee;
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
