Sweets & Treats

Good morning, sweets! Still in the middle of a hectic week but between all the madness I find my mind wandering to the sweeter things in life. Like what treats am I going to serve my guests for Christmas?

I definitely will be making peppermint bark again this year. I made it once before and it was a big hit. But I have to admit that last year I cheated and relied on Williams Sonoma instead. And I always have candy available in abundance. Also, Christmas cookies are always a staple in our home.

So what else can I do to make the mood even more festive? Christmas cocktails, right? This Candy Cane Martini sounds delicious, doesn't it? And I have quite a few other options that I'm considering. I'll definitely have to have a couple of trials which should make for a few fun nights! :)

Do you have any favorite holiday treats that you'd like to share?

Have a wonderful day, loves!

xoxo

A Sip of Summer

Good morning, lovelies! With all the dreary weather we've been having this week my mind has been wandering into serious summer teritory. Forget all of this spring business. It's been so rainy and unpredicatable that I'm desperately longing for the hot, long summer days. I'll even take the humidity that comes with it since I can always turn to refreshing cocktails for an instant cool down.

Hope you're having a lovely week! xoxo

Cheers!

Lord knows if this will work with all of the blogger issues the past few days. My original post was deleted and well the majority of you have had the same problems so I won't get into it...Just wanted to wish you all a happy weekend. Miss all of you and hope everything is resolved soon!

We're heading on over to the Manhattan Cocktail Classic Gala at the New York Public Library tonight. The perfect way to kick off the weekend!

Cheers, lovelies and here's to a fabulous weekend!!! xoxo
