Frozen Fruit Popsicles by TheDevineKitchen
Homemade popsicles are delicious at any age! Typically I make them the virgin way, with seasonal fruit and local maple syrup, but sometimes I add vodka or Rosé wine. The possible mixes are endless! Popsicle making can be a fun activity with kids. My children have fond memories of picking raspberries and strawberries with their great grandfather and making these popsicles with the “fruit” of their labour. These popsicles would even make a refreshing and easy happy hour treat or dessert. I hope you enjoy these as much as my family has over the years.

Calling on the Artsy - Board Members Wanted!
The Kawartha Arts Festival has some vacancies on its Board, and we are anxious to find the right people to fill those spots. Following the 30th annual Kawartha Arts Festival in 2019, and just as planning was underway for 2020, COVID-19 forced the cancellation of the event. Undaunted, the committee eagerly looked forward to being able to resume in 2021. In the past 10 months, we have been saddened and diminished by the passing of three valued members of our team.
