HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAXTER!!

Today marks Baxter's 6th Birthday!
I think I may have to go buy him a new shirt or something... he loves his shirts and sweaters so much.
one of the very cutest things he does is bring me his sweater to put it on him if he's cold. he'll go find one and bring it to me and put it right in my lap and then stare at me and dramatically shiver (total drama queen) until i give in and put his sweater on him. i swear if he could get dressed himself he would!

this is him winking at the camera ; )
SO CUTE!

My Favorites- 1 of 10

For me there is one candy that won my heart as a child and I love it almost more as an adult.

In my mind there is nothing better. if i'm having a bad day nothing cheers me up like POP ROCKS... you can't help but smile when there are delicious little candies dancing in your mouth.

people seem to have forgotten about these little packages of happiness but every time i have POP ROCKS and someone sees them they are almost instantly excited and haven't had them since they were kids. even though i don't want to share my candy i love seeing the look of happiness when people are reunited with the JOY of POP ROCKS!

here is a recipe to try...
Exploding Strawberry Daiquiri
Ingredients:
1/2 oz Strawberry schnapps
1 oz Light rum
1 oz Lime juice
1/2 oz simple syrup
2 oz Strawberries
Drop Strawberry Pop Rocks on top



do yourself a favor. go buy some. on a gloomy day like today everyone needs a smile.
and since i'm the one that reminded you of them... feel free to buy some for me too!

i can handle that.
