Travel: My Quick Getaway List

Now that my baby is a little older, I am ready to get my travel on again! Right now I am focused on “weekenders”.  These are trips you can go on and for 2 or 3 days and then come back ready to take on the real world again.  I have compiled my list of 2018 quick getaway trips that I am set to go on this year or am looking into that won’t break the bank, but will feed the need for a much needed getaway or two.

Cocktail: Strawberry Hard Apple Cider Cooler

When I started thinking about this post it was my intension to post a cocktail that was light, cool, and refreshing, and perfect for those warm spring days.  And, it is that however, I have no idea where my warm spring days went as I sit here in my jacket in the 50 degree weather! Nevertheless I want to share this cocktail recipe for a Strawberry Hard Apple Cider Cooler that is spring time in a glass!

Spring Awakening + Exciting New Ventures

The mornings are cool, the days are hot, and the air is full of pollen here in Houston.  This means one thing.  Spring is on the horizon!  I typically dread the Spring because of allergies and yellow dusted vehicles, but I have to say, after wiping tiny runny noses 2 straight months, 3 days of being shut in due to icy roads, and nursing a sick husband back to life from the stomach flu, I am so over wither this year!  As I have been huddled in at home for various reasons I have been working on a few projects that I am completely stoked to share this Spring, beginning with the launch of the Sideline Socialite T-Shirt Shop!

Valentine’s Day Cocktail: Strawberry Rosé Sangria

Whether you are having your girlfriends over for a pink galentine’s party or you are wanting to make some special sips for your sweetie on February 14th, this super easy Strawberry Rosé Sangria is the perfect choice! My sangria recipe took a couple of turns from what I had originally planned because I sent my husband to the store for my ingredients! Although he came back with Rossi (sparkling wine) instead of rosé, I think that the end result may be tastier than the original!
