You’ve heard about freakshakes right? These masterful creations combine milkshakes with a theme and a huge conglomeration of toppings piled high. Originally hailing from Australia, freakshakes have taken the US by storm. With as many as 1200 calories per shake, it’s been a controversial storm at that. So you might be wondering why I am publishing a recipe for a sweet Valentine’s Day freakshake for two!

Well for one thing, I would always recommend that freakshakes be shared and saved for special occasions. With that many calories, this is just good common sense. And Valentine’s Day seems like the perfect special occasion for sharing, making our freakshake an indulgent way to end your V-Day celebration with your special someone.

The Point of Freakshakes

I’d also like to point out that you never have to finish a freakshake. That is so not the point. Our Valentine’s Day Freakshake for two is not going to be offended if you set aside bits and pieces after you’ve oohed and ahhed over the awesomeness of it all and taken your pics for Instagram. While I’m at it, I’ll also point out that we kept our freakshake more simple than most.

Freakshakes are a fun way to do something sweet for your loved one. Just pick a theme that your special someone loves, and create the shake just for them.

Yes, freakshakes on Instagram are a thing – make sure you check out the hashtag!

The first steps in making our Valentine’s Day Freakshake for Two are frosting the glass and adding sprinkles. This is pretty straightforward. By the way, using a pedestal glass like we did will give you something to hold onto so that you can turn the glass horizontal as you add sprinkles. They will stick better.

The next step is to make the milkshake. Use a blender, and you can mix up the flavor of ice cream as well! We used vanilla, but anything would work. Once you carefully pour the milkshake into the glass, it’s all about adding those finishing touches. Top it with a donut! You could get strawberry frosted or chocolate frosted, it doesn’t matter, but be sure to add a few of the sprinkles to the top to add a nice finished look.

Keep Your Freakshake Simple!

For the final touches, you can use heart-shaped lollipops, chocolate lollipops, and heart-shaped Peeps. All of these items can be purchased at your local grocery store or candy shop, making our Valentine’s Day Freakshake for Two super simple. Add a little whipped cream with more sprinkles at the end, and your freakshake is ready to serve! Isn’t it adorable?

Grab two spoons and enjoy!

Our Latest Shenanigans

See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I thought they were goners. See, my sister gave us the bulbs for Asiatic Lillies for Christmas last year, down in a bag full of dirt and told us to take them home and plant them in the cold so they would rest and come back next year. Or freeze them. I did neither. I knew we weren’t in our own home yet, and we were hoping to move into our forever home this summer, so I threw them in the closet and waited. They stayed dormant, and started to develop roots in the Spring, still in the bag in my closet. Come June 5, we moved into our new house, and I pulled out the bag around June 15 to plant them and found that the roots were turning to mush. The bulbs were starting to rot. I planted them anyway, but to make matters worse, I accidentally planted them upside down because I thought the roots were actually sprouts. Oops. Then, I hired my boys and their friends to weed the bed where these are planted and forgot to tell them to leave these alone. The “sprouts” disappeared. I thought they were gone forever. Here it is the middle of August, and a week or so ago, I found these baby Asiatic Lillies coming up. I texted a pic to my sis to ask if this was what they look like. Sure enough after all that trauma, this gift survived. I won’t have blooms this year, but I’m told they will come back next year and survive to bloom. What a sweet blessing that will be, God willing. And a sweet reminder to persevere under trials and hardship. God is doing something bigger, something hidden, something better than we can ever imagine. Hang in there! #momlife #momfierce #momforthewin #firmlyplanted
Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff, especially the unmasking of pedophilia and it’s prominence in the US and in our backyards. This horrifies and frightens me. I am so grateful to know that God will prevail. In the end, He wins. Everything seems so dark here in the US and it’s because of the spiritual forces of evil — but I know God will prevail. His love never fails. I’m putting my hope in this truth. #loveneverfails #godwins #godisgreater #momlife #momfierce

There are so many things I need to tell you about There are so many things I need to tell you about this picture. First #sheisloved campaign with @mercyhouseglobal and sheispriceless.org - check that out it’s important. Second - that cute bracelet came from @mercyhouseglobal about a month ago and *didn’t fit*. Today it’s loose enough to twist. I haven’t lost a lot of pounds according to the scale — I kinda stalled out three or four weeks ago at 17 pounds lost — but apparently I’m losing fat. That’s a victory. Third, my hands look like my moms and will some day look like my grandmas. I consider that a blessing.  Finally, it’s been a beautiful day😍 but I’m kinda sad it took me this long to find a red marker and share the love. If you have one handy, it’s not too late to jump on board with @wearethatfamily and be a world-changer! #worldchanger #momfierce #prayformoms #especiallyteenmomsinkenya #mymomrocks
How was Mother’s Day for you. It can be an incre How was Mother’s Day for you. It can be an incredible blessing or bring incredible pain. In whatever your circumstance, I will pray that you rest in God’s presence today. #mom #momlife #momwins #momfierce #momsofinstagram #2020mom
