Remind me to never move south of the Mason Dixon line. Too hot, humid, and sticky for this gal. Plus, I haven’t learned how to mosey yet so I would just be the sweaty odd duck down there, walking and talking much too fast. I could get behind the biscuit situation, however. And caramel cake.Continue reading “Fizzy Bees Knees – A Gin Cocktail”

Browned Butter Vanilla Rum Snacking Cake
Corduroys, grayish black and cozy as all get out. A flannel shirt with snaps. Snaps. Wool running socks. Large snow flakes. Cold crisp air. A Large Americano. A scarf that matches nothing and clashes with everything but makes me insanely happy for no good reason. Gray skies and a frozen lake. Saturday morning marketContinue reading “Browned Butter Vanilla Rum Snacking Cake”
Apple Cider Bourbon
I sit at the far end of a long table. I make eye contact with the patron at the other end and simply ask if it’s okay that we share the last lone table available at the cafe/bakery that we are both indulging in on this fall day. From the looks of the weather channel, itContinue reading “Apple Cider Bourbon”
Rhubarb Gin Sorbet
Is it too late to write and prattle on about and dream of shoving all things rhubarb into our faces? Please please please tell me it isn’t too late. I just couldn’t take the disappointment if you said, ‘Mallory – you are a bit late to the rhubarb shindig.’ Whhaaaa! But, but, but…I have yetContinue reading “Rhubarb Gin Sorbet”
Strawberry Margarita
i can’t spell margaritas. it is because i can’t get it out of my mouth correctly. i pronounce it marg-er-itas … and there lies the problem. i can’t talk. without the help of spellcheck, this entire post would have margarita spelled incorrectly. from top to bottom…without me being any the wiser. it would be muchContinue reading “Strawberry Margarita”
Irish Coffee
If you have been following me on Instagram, you will have noticed my Friday evening Irish Happy Hour. I will have you know, I continued that happy hour when I awoke Saturday morning. Irish coffee and cinnamon sugar toast. It gets better…the piece of bread that I toasted was none other than the heel ofContinue reading “Irish Coffee”
Peppermint Infused Vodka // Peppermint Vodka Hot Cocoa
Can we discuss the fact that while backing out of my garage yesterday morning, and onto my driveway that was covered in snow and snow drifts that were up to my bum (I’m short, this isn’t an amazing feat by any means)…that I may have careened slighty into my yard…but who knows, my driveway could justContinue reading “Peppermint Infused Vodka // Peppermint Vodka Hot Cocoa”
A Manhattan in Cleveland
Tonight (Wednesday) is the biggest bar night of the year. So they say. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving. When most or a majority of folks are staying with relatives. Traveling some sort of distance to spend a day or the whole weekend (4 entire days) with loved ones. In close quarters with brothers and sisters. NieceContinue reading “A Manhattan in Cleveland”
Strawberry Infused Vodka
I signed up for the Tough Mudder April 2013 yesterday. Remember the Tough Mudder 2012? I do. The memories are rather vivid, maybe because I finished the race feeling 20 years older and looking like I was mugged and then pulled through a gauntlet. Or maybe because I still have a slight bump in myContinue reading “Strawberry Infused Vodka”
Blackberry Mojito
I believe. I believe the best naps are taken on the couch, in your work clothes. With your shoes still on. I believe that beer tastes better from the tap and worst from a bottle. I believe chocolate should always be close at hand, in the purse, in the cupboard, in the desk, or in your locker. IContinue reading “Blackberry Mojito”
