Friday's here...let the fun begin! I don't know about you , but I have had a weeeeeek! Glad to see this one in the books, and ready to get my Mother's Day celebration on. Which really consists of a lot of relaxing and no-laundry doing. Since in my world Mother's Day starts Friday, (it really should be Mother's … [Read more...]
Ocean Water from Sonic is one of my all time favorite drinks. Of course, the ACTUAL ocean tastes like fish and seaweed. But in the ocean of my dreams, it would taste like Sonic Ocean Water. Anyways. Now I can make my own at home!! It's super easy and yummy for the whole family to share...but feel free to add a splash of coconut … [Read more...]
Good Friday! So it's getting warmer by the day... Which means I am forcing my children outside to play... Which also means they call me every 3 seconds to watch their new "trick" on their bike. So I have a solution. Root Beer Floats. Something to enjoy with the kiddos. Add a little vanilla vodka to yours to make the … [Read more...]
Happy Friday!! I don't know about you, but frozen margaritas are my go -to drink when I'm out for dinner. They're slushy, delicious, and they go great with Mexican food!! As much as I love the original, strawberry margaritas are probably my favorite. I think I need one or four this … [Read more...]

In that spirit, I'm bringing you a Summery, tropical drink -- a banana … [Read more...]

Well, St. Patrick's Day is Sunday...and whether you're Irish or not, it's still a day easy to get into. We eat corned beef and cabbage every year, and also set leprechaun traps, wear green and speak in an Irish brogue all day long. It's not annoying at all. And of course there's the famous Shamrock Shake, which I am sure isn't … [Read more...]
Okay so, I know that this *technically* isn't a cocktail, but the weather here has been warming up. I've been walking to pick Jon David up from school, and we come home and whip up smoothies for an after school snack. He favors chocolate/banana, but I love Pina Colada -- partly because it makes me think of Summer, but mostly because I feel … [Read more...]
Are you feeling international on this Friday? Well, I am. In all honesty I had my first Pisco Sour not in South America...but in New York... But the girl who told me I must order one HAD actually been introduced to this drink while on vacation in Chile a few years before, so that kinda counts for something, right? That whole … [Read more...]
I'm addicted to gummi cherries. Have you had them? Don't even get me started. Anyways. My other addiction is Coke Zero. Sometimes I add a few maraschino cherries for fun. It doesn't take much to spice up MY life, nowadays!! I've seen lots of those gummi bears soaked in liquor on Pinterest, so I decided to give it a whirl with my … [Read more...]
This week a lot of you celebrated Fat Tuesday. It's the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday where people go all out...eat fattening foods, drink loads of alcky-hawl and basically just indulge before they begin the ritual fasting during Lent season. Anyhow, when I think of Mardi Gras and Fat Tuesday, my mind, of course goes to New … [Read more...]
