Happy Movie Monday, friends!
This month’s theme is Lucky movies so I chose one of my favorite romantic flicks, P.S. I Love You. This movie is all about being lucky in love and is set in Ireland so it fit the theme perfectly. In honor of this lucky movie I created these Lucky in Love Chocolate Shamrock Shakes.
These delicious Shamrock Shakes are a blend of chocolate milkshake and green mint shake. Perfect for sharing with your lucky loved ones on movie night.

These goofballs loved the milkshakes so much they didn’t even save me a sip!

On the last (or fourth) Monday of each month, a group of bloggers participate in a #MovieMondayChallenge, hosted by C’mon Get Crafty! We decide on a topic, genre, or specific movie to use for inspiration and everyone gets free reign to create something wonderful!

 
This month’s challenge was. . . . “LUCK! Everyone was allowed to choose their own favorite film so long as it was inspired by the challenge word. I chose one of my favorites, set in Ireland: P.S. I Love You. You will adore my Lucky in Love Shamrock Shake inspired by the movie!

Now let’s see what everyone else was inspired to create for this month’s #MovieMondayChallenge!! If you’d like to join our Facebook group, you can request an invite here.

  • Top with whipped cream and sprinkles.

 Drizzle both chilled glasses with chocolate Magic Shell sauce along the rim.

 Let harden for a moment then place back in the freezer while you make the milkshake.

 Start with 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream.

 Add to a blender along with 1/2 cup milk.

 Now add chocolate syrup. Yummmmm.

 Mix until blended.

 Pour into each glass, filling half way.

 Now to make the mint milkshake: add 4 scoops vanilla ice cream,  1/2 cup milk,
1/4 tsp mint extract, and 5 drops green food coloring.

 Blend in a blender until smooth.

 Pour into glasses, on top of the chocolate layer.

Top with whipped cream.

 
I like to add festive sprinkles to my milkshakes {and maybe even a chocolate gold coin too}.

Add a straw and enjoy!

The perfect drink for Lucky Movie Monday!

 Drink up and enjoy sharing these Chocolate Shamrock Shakes with your lucky loved ones!

🍽 Yesterday we enjoyed lunch at NCAL+H2O, an upscale seafood gem of a restaurant in downtown Rolla. It was a delicious meal and everything this Florida girl has been craving! 
🐟 We started with an order of amazing Tuna Poke Nachos then shared a Grilled Shrimp Club sandwich with fries and a tasty salad with house garlic parm dressing. We couldn't stop there so we also split a bowl of cioppino, which was chock full of fresh seafood. Next time I want to try their Parmesan Halibut or Seafood Pasta! 
❤ If you are looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate an anniversary or have a quiet date night (or day date like us) check out @saltwaterrollamo ! 
⭐ Lunch was courtesy of @rolladowntown.  I was a winner of $100 in downtown dollars in their Tis the Season of Giving contest!

🥡 We tried @doordash for the first time during our stay in Branson tonight. It really saved us time and energy running around town and delivery was free! We ordered ramen, bi bim bap, and lo mein from a local Asian restaurant called Noodle 21. It was delish! Check them out if you are in the area and send me a message if you want a referral for $5 off to try #doordash ! @noodle21branson #eatlocal #branson #takeoutfood #whatsfordinner

It is pizza night and it’s @caseys to the rescue! After a busy week this tired Mama needed an easy dinner. Luckily Casey’s has tasty pizza to go and I ordered right on the app. Our fresh made Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza was ready for store pickup in no time. Check out Casey’s new free curbside, available at most stores, and enjoy an easy and delicious Casey’s pizza night too! #sponsored #CaseysCurbside

Road trip time and #CaseysCurbside saved the day! We stopped at @caseys and stocked up on some supplies, including my favorite pretzels and juice from their new line of Casey’s favorites, before we were on our way. I love that I can order right on Caseys.com or via their app and pickup using their free and easy curbside. #sponsored
