Happy Hour Time

I can hardly believe it is Friday already and that next weekend we will be in the month of February; how crazy is that! Despite the chilliness and just down right cold weather I hope everyone has had a great week! Here’s to sending the last weekend of January out with a bang and continuing to stick to those New Years resolutions! Happy weekend!

    I'm not much for gin, but I have caught myself becoming a martini person! I'm you're ever at Bonefish, you must try the Bonefish martini - white whine, vodka, and cranberry!

    Also, I have a fun new vodka in today's post on my blog! seersuckersass.blogspot.com

    Hope you have a lovely weekend!
