Enjoying a La Floridita cocktail tonight.

White rum, sweet vermouth, créme de cacao, lime juice, and a dash of grenadine. Yummy!

Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend…

I'm in the throes of getting the college kid packed up to go back to school next weekend. This summer has gone by so quickly!

Her coughing and throwing up, me with bloody diarrhea. Today, no coughing no vomiting, me no diarrhea, no blood.
A friend told me it was the dry Friday that caused the diarrhea.

I’ll have to look up the ratios.

Recently, we discovered the Negroni. Equal portions of gin, sweet vermouth and Campari served over ice with a piece of fruit. Too yummy!
