I still have mind lapses aka baby brain even though my baby is almost a year old. I have a crazy amount of strawberries because I just keep buying cartons..Thank you baby Brain! So on Saturday night, my husband and I were going stir crazy and decided to drink. Why the hell not, right!? Well, I am due for a Publix trip so we didn’t have much mixers to choose from and I drank all the wine the previous week. Then I got a brilliant idea. My absolute favorite martini is a Strawberry Martini from the Cheesecake Factory. If you…
Memorable 1st Birthday Gift Ideas
0I am bashing my head against a wall trying to figure out what to get my niece and daughter for their 1st birthdays. They are 5 weeks apart and I’m sorry, but clothes and little toys will just not cut it for this special milestone. I wanted to get them both something special, fun and meaningful. Something that they will get some use out of for a while and not grow out of it in a few weeks or be bored of in a few hours. Here’s what I have come up with so far: 1. Table & Chairs Set:…
The Letter of the Day is…. E
0E for empty. Totally running on empty today and its only 10. Was awoken last night by my husband who has, what me and WebMD have diagnosed as, heat rash.

That took about a good…
Steakhouse Quality Soup & Salad
0Not to toot my own or horn or anything but my Valentine’s meal to my husband was probably one of the best meals I have ever made. Normally when I cook a big meal, I tend to not eat as much. I guess it’s some kind of psychological thing since I usually slave all day cooking it, who knows. But I went to town on that shit. Seconds and thirds type shit! Again, not tooting my own horn, but beep-motha-effin-beep!! It really was like going to a steakhouse. Well, minus the $300 bill. Not sure why I haven’t attempted this…
Thristy Thursday – Watermelon Mint Cocktail
0I have been on the biggest lemonade kick lately. Found this recipe for a watermelon-mint lemonade and was intrigued. I had all the ingrediants in the house and whipped up a batch. It was delish! So refreshing and yummy but it was missing something……… Vodka. Adding a little bit of vodka or rum will make this drink over the top! So ring in the spring with a refreshing, fruity cocktail!!! Watermelon Mint Cocktail 4 cups seedless watermelon 1 1/2 cups lemonade 1/2 cup mint 1/2 cup vodka, run or tequila Puree the watermelon and lemonade in a blender or immersion…
