Dear Moms,  Hey there! How have you been?! It's so good to see you! You're looking good! Have you lost weight? gotten a new 'do? Well, whatever you've been doing, it looks good on you! Keep it up, Honey! Anyway, I am doing the same old same old...hustling, working, looking to make a way in the world. Lol ALL while trying to not screw my kids up COMPLETELY! So- where do I begin? Let's dive right in with one of my fave things to address here with you guys/gals: (hell, however YOU mother- mother up!) COCKTAILS!! With Mother's Day fast approaching- cocktails for the season will soon be flowing, and hopefully- with reckless abandon! Yes, hunty- I know how very stressful this whole parenting gig can prove to be, so let's not beat around the bush- no, BAR and let's get to it! It is officially spring and we have just entered into my birth month- so the turn up is underway! I like to find cocktails that either embody the season. Be it, the holidays within...

How-To Create Your Own Cups of Christmas 🍷"Cheer"🍸 Dear Moms,  Well, the Christmas season is HERE!! I am sooooo excited! Tree is yet to be picked out, and decor theme is yet to be determined...I'm normally not the last minute type on this kind of thing, but with the move and the remodeling of the new house- things have been a bit hectic! Buut, even through all of that- I am trying to keep you all abreast of what's going on with me and help YOU through the holiday season! So, since I missed the Thanksgiving cocktail date...I have an early gift to you mamas by way of a few recipes for large batches of Christmas "cheers!" So, sit back and get ready to gather the family, gang (or maybe just you on a bender) to "imbibe" in the season!! Now, I am just becoming a fan of whiskeys & bourbons and this cocktail is soooo easy as well as yummy! I love a citrus-y cocktail most of all, add the fact it includes whisky just makes it even better!...

Great Drink Recipes for the Fourth of July (21 and up Only)Enjoy Responsibly! Dear Moms, I am as we all are- well aware that Summer is fully upon us and with the stress the kids being home everyday ALL day, the Summer's holidays can add a bit more! However, I am here to try and help ease your stress- let's have a drink! So, if you are planning to cook out, or not- I have acquired a few new delicious, and refreshing additions to my bartender repertoire; enjoy these responsibly! If you are a beer drinker, something I have most recently become, a Shandy may be just up your alley! A shandy historically were served in English pubs and traditionally consist of a half beer and a carbonated topper, think- citrus soda, or a ginger ale. In this way, it is an easy cocktail tester if you are not quite the experienced mixologist just yet! It's super simple and can be loads of bubbly fun to test the ratios and flavor combos. One ideal shandy to try if you don't want to do t...

Some days are stressful and some days are downright scary! But, have you ever had any thoughts about your children that are just downright inappropriate?
