Ready for a sip?

          Last few weekends have been quite busy for us. We had a great reunion of friends at Hershey,  followed by another visit to NOLA followed by Lil S's big birthday lunch followed by P's B''day when we drove to San Antonio! In the middle of all this I also started weekly volunteering to the local library.
But now we are back for good. No more weekend trips, at least for a month or so :-)

I was missing my blog. So today morning I thought of sharing an easy cocktail recipe! I made this for P's B'day and we both enjoyed it. Luckily this year P's B'day was on a Friday, so we could enjoy the evening to our heart's content.

 I had never used Triple Sec before, but I must say that I liked the taste. The staff at local Specs was very helpful to give me a hand in figuring out the right shelf!

Indulge this cool drink while you relax in your bath tub!
