Jello

When we were out grocery shopping Shortie saw some jello and asked what it was and if we could make some. I'm not big into jello, never have been, its something about the texture and funky jiggle it has... however I knew those would be the exact reasons the kids would love it. So one afternoon we had funny making home made jello. We made some fresh juice in our juicer -- blood orange and lime, then we bought some super awesome strong 100% juice grape juice, and apple cider. 

side note - gelatin gives the creeps more than jello itself. Gelatin is made out of animals skin and bone -- um, eww! You can use agar agar instead of gelatin and its much friendlier and great for clean eating.
