DIY Wine Charms

These charms are extremely easy to make. Depending on your choice of beads these can be made cheaply or expensively. Treat yourself. Make each one unique or stick to a theme. I recommend opening a bottle of wine with some great people and have fun with it!!! Click on the links below for the PDFs...

Mixology

Made up some new cocktails on New Year's Eve. Some were terrible but I have 2 winners! They each got 5 stars in a family taste test (on a 5 star scale).

Ghetto Sunset: Shot of Tequila & 3 Parts Orange Soda

Absolutely delicious.

Italian Magi: Shot of Limoncello, 3 Parts Ginger Ale, sprinkle some bitters

Tasted like an Italian Christmas, is the color of gold and oh so beautiful!

***There were a few mixes that sparked some controversy. Settled in the 3-4 star region.***

Pirate Ninja Fight: Shot of Rum, dash of Sake, 3 Parts Coca-Cola

Ended up tasting like a Fresca. Not as hardcore as the name would suggest, needs some improvement.

Cuban Missile Crisis: In a tall glass: Shot of Rum, Shot of Vodka, Shot of Whiskey, fill the glass with Coca-Cola.

Strong. Tasted of Cold War intrigue & worry, but ultimately, resolution.

Marie Antoinette: Shot of Crown Royal, 3 parts Perrier, splash of grenadine.

Tasty. More of a summer cocktail, to be sipped in a pasture contemplating Rousseau while a guillotine looms at the Bastille.

More Mixology to come, as I am a serious Mixologist.

Happy New Year! Drink Responsibly.

We are somewhere in the red circle, four people from the front and two people in from the side, i made a path for Amanda to get closer and then people piled on top of me. But it was all in the name of the Jam and we abide.
