Adult Beverage Saturday

R and I had a lovely cocktail hour(s) on Saturday. R had several cocktails which led to him telling Daisy that he loved her (an odd sentiment, obviously, given their history) but a fun, relaxing evening nonetheless. Which was needed, given the drama of late.

R was drinking a lovely Long Island Iced Tea, the Barefoot Contessa version. You mix vodka, rum, tequila, gin, and Cointreau with a hefty splash of lemon juice and a splash of sugar syrup. Put ice in the glass, put in the booze, then fill to the top with cola.






I made a cranberry cocktail/cape codder/something of that nature featuring cranberry juice, vodka, club soda, and a lime twist. Daisy sneakily drank a sip of mine and seemed to enjoy it roundly.

Those look tasty! I had a vodka & cranberry Friday night. Did Daisy tell R she loved him back? Sometimes it's awkward when only one person in the relationship has said the L word, but the other one is holding out.

hahahaha, no, so R could have been a bit disappointed, however, his expression of love was a bit conditional - he said he "can love her" when "she's like that" which means quiet and sleepy and peaceful.

I had an "Adult Beverage Thursday, Friday, and Saturday"! Nothing quite as fancy as yours, however. My weekend was mostly sponsored by Bud Light. I'm a classy gal

Ah Bud Light...I remember thee well...Although Miss J can attest to the fact that we felt compelled to drink Miller Light due to family allegiances.

If you busted out the pint glasses for the LIITs, I'd be a little more appreciative. Of course, that did lead to yet another near pants wetting experience.... On second thought, no mixed drinks out of pint glasses ever again!
