 I just love Halloween crafts. Halloween and Christmas are the two holidays I tend to go all out for. I just can’t get enough of the cuteness!!!! My daughter has a class Halloween party every year! Since Halloween is a favorite of mine to get crafty for, I thought it would be fun to make D.I.Y Mummy Water Bottles for the kids!  Supplies• Small Water Bottles • Gauze • Glue Stick • Black Paper • Scissors • Spiders  Take a water bottle and your gauze & wrap your water bottle up.  Take your scissors and cut the leftover gauze. Then tuck the end of your gauze into the gauze on your water bottle.  Now glue on those googly eyes with your glue stick.  Time to cut out a mouth using your black paper. Once you have cut one out, glue it onto your water bottle.  Glue on a plastic spider.  Ta-Da! You now have Mummy Water Bottles. They make the perfect beverage to serve at your Halloween Party!  Let’s Chat!Are you planning a Halloween Party?

 Ahhhhhh warm weather!!!! I don’t know what it is, but once patio season hits, I’m all about the fruity beverages!!!! Nothing better than chillen on your patio with a big ole glass of something tropical in your hands!!! What’s even better is having a little something special to pass out when your besties are over enjoying the scenery with you. Since most of us old ladies aren’t the heavy drinkers we were in our 20’s, my sangria Jello shots are exactly the boozy treat to serve your besties. Boozy enough to keep that buzz going, but not too hard that you will need a day to recover. Cheers!!!  INGREDIENTS1 Box Raspberry Jello 1 Cup Sangria 1 Cup Boiling Water Fresh Fruit for Garnish Plastic Condiment Cups (Dollar Tree)  Pour 1 cup of water into a medium-sized pan. Bring the water to a boil.      Enjoy!  I don't know about you, but these fabulously warm Spring days are getting me really antsy for summer!!! I just can’t stop day dreaming about sipping my favorite cocktails poolside.  Recently, I discovered that you can actually make Jack and Coke popsicles. That’s right!!!! One of the best cocktails ever in Popsicle form! Now, these aren't like that time Jack Daniel's made beef jerky, these popsicles actually have booze in them! Enjoy!!  SuppliesJack Daniels Coca-Cola Popsicle Mold 
 2. Grab your can of Coke and top each section of the mold off.  3. It’s now time to take those popsicle sticks and place them back into the mold.  4. Once you have your mold back together, place your Jack & Coke popsicles in the freezer for several hours.  5. Once your Jack & Coke Popsicles are frozen solid. Rinse your mold off with a little bit of hot water. This will loosen the popsicles just enough to slide right out of the mold without breaking. 
 Can you believe it?!?! Summer is right around the corner! You know what that means right!?! It’s fruity adult beverage season!!!! WooHoo!!! One of my all-time favorite drinks is a mimosa. I know, not that original of me! But you know what? You can totally take that classic mimosa and make it taste like summer with watermelon juice. Just swap that OJ for some watermelon and wa-la!!!! You now have a champagne beverage worthy of sitting poolside with you all summer! Cheers!  • Champagne • Watermelon Juice ( Tropicana Tastes like candy. Pressed Watermelon Juice tastes like real watermelon!) •Watermelon Slice  Take your bottle of champagne and fill your glass 3 quarters of the way full.  Next, you will want to top of your Champagne glass with watermelon juice. I always recommend Tropicana Watermelon Juice since it’s the most fruity. If you aren’t into sweet juices, you can always opt for a pressed watermelon juice. The pressed juice will be more natural tasting.  Slice up that watermelon for your Champagne glass garnish.  Serve & Enjoy!
 So happy spring has finally decided to grace us with its presence here in Western New York!!!! All this decent weather has me craving hot sunny days chillen poolside!!! I can’t wait to kick back on a unicorn float and sip away at my favorite cocktails! One of my favorite summertime drinks is coconut run! Nothing says sunny fabulous weather like sipping on something fruity! That’s why I decided to turn my favorite summertime liquor into a popsicle!!  INGREDIENTS•Malibu Rum •Sprite •Fresh Lime Juice •Popsicle Mold  The very first thing you are going to want to do is take your popsicle mold apart by removing the popsicle sticks.  Then, fill each section of the mold with a quarter of Malibu Rum. I know it doesn’t sound like much, but the more alcohol you add, the less frozen your popsicle will be. You don’t want a slush puppy! A quarter of Malibu makes the perfect textured popsicle!! Nice and frozen!  Grab your bottle of Sprite and top each section of the mold off.  To make your Malibu Run Popsicles extra tropical, take a like and squeeze a little bit of fresh lime juice into each section.  It’s now time to take those popsicle sticks and place them back into the mold. Once you have your mold back together, place your popsicles in the freezer for several hours.  Once your popsicles are frozen solid. Rinse your mold off with a little bit of hot water. This will loosen the popsicles just enough to slide right out of the mold without breaking.  Serve & Enjo!
