A Special Thanks
Memorial weekend is officially over. The eastern seaboard had record heat waves and here in Florida the weather, well, just felt a bit earlier than usual. On Sunday it reached 100 degrees and I was at the pool. No, I should say not at the pool, I was in the pool, it was too hot to actually bask in the sun. What a great day it was!
I did not turn on my computer all…

Happy Hour
Thanks for Asking
A few emails were sent to me over Memorial weekend. These were my first emails from my website which I am really excited about. I loved hearing from people with questions and suggestions. One email in particular prompted todays Happy Hour blog. The email asked me point blank what my favorite cocktail of choice is.
If the time is after 6:00pm, perhaps 5:00pm, ok on…

Happy Hour
Does it Feel Like Rum??
It’s Friday late afternoon here in Florida and it’s beginning to feel like happy hour is approaching. It has been hot here and that tends to lend itself to thoughts of the Caribbean and Hawaii with little umbrellas poking out of the glass, fruit juices and Rum!
My best friend lives in San Diego and he and I have a lot of history over the years. We worked for the…

Best Grilled Chicken Marinade
Recipes to Eat for Today: May 17, 2019
Grilled Chicken is something I tend to be a master at. The main trick I use is cooking the boneless skinless breasts on the upper shelf of a gas grill. Keep the grill on high. Bring the chicken out in the marinade and cook for 5 minutes then dunk in the marinade and flip. Do this four times for 20-25 minutes of cook time…

Happy Hour today is the Perfect Margarita
It’s Friday!! Time to Enjoy The Perfect Margarita.
I don’t know about you but it has been a long week for me. Not a bad week, just seemed long. But . . . the end is in sight.
It is a beautiful day across most of the country. A bit hot here in Florida which made me think that it is time for a wonderfully refreshing cocktail that can be enjoyed outside by the pool or on the lanai.
I…

April 15th, 2019 — TAX DAY
I know that many of you received a refund and have already spent the money. I personally believe in receiving a bigger paycheck and attempting to break even at the end of the year rather than owing or receiving money. I could actually spend hours hours writing about my dissatisfaction with this section of our government. I am venting a bit today because I really got…

Today I am unfortunately going to start with some very sad photos, The Notre Dam in Paris. It is (was) an amazing feat of architecture, the top tourist attraction in Paris and one of the top in the world. It has been undergoing renovations recently and the fire is believed to have started from this renovation. Come to come on this.
Let us get on with some lighter images for the day . . .

Today I am offering something that is used even more than my martini shaker in the household: The Harmon Kardon bluetooth speaker. I was given this as my Christmas gift the year before last. It has the deepest, richest sound. It has the power to fill your living space even with a lot of people over. It sounds like surround sound, can be connected to your phone, stereo, TV, etc. It sits in the…

April 15th, 2019—Tax day
What better day to mix up a batch of cocktails than today? I am of course referring to those of us that had to send money the the I.R.S. Believe it or not there is a cocktail called “The Income Tax Cocktail”. I am sure it was invented in Washington D.C. by all the legislators that saw the sheer amount of cash coming in today. Or it could have been invented by someone…

Pesto Tortellini Skewers
Today is going to be short and sweet. Saturday after a few cocktails we started to get hungry. Appetizers and peanuts were devoured and it was time for one of us to figure out what to make. And nothing had been thawed out to cook.
So I went to work digging through the pantry and freezer in search of the elusive gourmet quick…
