Cocktail Friday ~ Hawaiian Island Surfer

hawaiian

  It's Friday, yo!!  That means time for a cocktail.   The weather took a chilly turn here in Arkansas, so I thought I'd make something tropical that makes me feel like I'm on an island.   Plus, this drink is sort of like an ice cream float with alcohol so...you can't go wrong.   INGREDIENTS 2 oz Orange … [Read more...]

DIY Cute Flats

I'm not going to pretend that I am all money-savery. I'm not.  Especially when it comes to shoes. BUT I do have my fair share of cheapy flats. For some reason, flats just aren't something I have ever spent big money on. I'm not above it, I covet my fair share of Tory Burch, but I just have never been able to make the … [Read more...]

Good morning!!   Are you ready for a family battle this week? Last week we paired Jeremy Sisto and Jeremy Renner.  Sisto won by a long shot on that one...I thought the race  would be a bit closer...but so far I have been off by over half of these Whatta Man Challenges.

New Years Eve Cocktails

I'll be the first to admit that I'm sort of a New Year's Eve grinch.   I don't get excited, I don't make resolutions, and I DON'T go out.  Ever.   I DO, however, watch the New Years Eve special on television and indulge in plenty of cocktails.  Because the only way I can tolerate Ke$ha's bizarre dance moves is if I'm in a … [Read more...]
