cocktail spectrum

happy happy friday!  i am SO looking forward to sitting outdoors for drinks after work so i figured i'd get everyone in on the party!  here are my drink recommendations based on your drinking gender identity.

feeling girly
i recommend a fizzy fuzzy navel
it's the genius love child between the fuzzy navel and the mimosa. 

1 1/2 oz peach schnapps
2 oz orange juice
fill with champagne

feeling womanly:
i recommend a classic cosmo
as someone who has never watched so much as 2 minutes of sex and the city i have no idea what my love of cosmopolitans says about me.  c'est la vie, they're delicious.
1 1/2 oz vodka
3/4 oz triple sec
3/4 oz cranberry juice
1 oz lime juice

feeling boyish:
i recommend a tom collins
because they're named after a guy, but they are like a baby's gin and tonic!


2 oz gin
2 oz lime juice
3 oz club soda
1 tsp sugar

feeling manly:
i recommend a boiler maker
because i mean.... come on.  you said you were feeling manly.
(it's a beer and a shot of whisky)
my favorite place in town does them the right way
1 bottle stella artois
1 1/2 oz johnny walker red

feeling androgynous:
i recommend an old fashioned
they've just got that little bit of everything.  everyone looks cool drinking an old fashioned.

2 oz bourbon
2 dashes bitters
2 tsp simple syrup
1 tsp water
1 slice orange
1 maraschino cherry

hope everyone has a fun and responsible weekend!

charleston preview




so i may have gone a little overboard with the camera on our vacation, because today i realized i had taken over 300 pictures of our 4 day trip.  this means i still have a lot of photos to sift through, but i'll post more as i get through them.  here's a quick sneak peak!

you'll probably end up noticing that i told some lies about what i was packing because the weather really was more formidable than tank top dresses could allow.  even with all my spring fever, the tulip skirt dress from anthropologie wasn't going to cut it in terms of warmth.

i have some great etsy finds to share later today, but check back tomorrow for more pictures from our road trip!
