For the Love of Cooking { And Sippin'}

Do you ever have one of those days where you’re just like, “Pour me a stiff one”, “Make it a double”, “Chin Chin”, “Bottom’s up buttercup”?!   Well today is one of those days for me.  All I can think of is mini vacay’s and big floppy sun hats!  I just feel like gathering those I love, sippin’ on pretty little cocktails, with the obligatory pinky sticking out of course, while twirling in the summer heat!   Is that too much to ask?!

Like I’ve said before presentation is everything and that includes your cocktails!
Here are two must try boozy-licious bevs to kick your summer (and mine) off 
in all the right ways!

First up the Toasted Pineapple Cocktail from Sugar + Charm!
