One of my favorite childhood memories is of my parents taking me strawberry picking in Texas. No idea where…Corpus Christi? Houston? Unclear. All I know is that it was one of those places where the strawberry plants were grown stacked on top of each other, so the rows of plants (each plant loaded with ripe berries) towered…read more »
Alcohol-Free Sangria
Back in my first trimester of pregnancy, I stumbled across a couple memes one night that made me laugh because they so perfectly captured how I was feeling…which was tired, all the time, and somehow constantly queasy but also constantly hungry/thirsty. Basically, I was preggers and my body wouldn’t let me forget it. The best part about being in my second…read more »
Grilled Nectarine, Burrata & Prosciutto Crostini
Guys, the heat and humidity in Virginia this past week has been INSANE. When I checked my weather app at 6am yesterday, the humidity indicator was already at 96%. I’m not a metereologist or anything, but I’m pretty sure that means we’re basically moving through water at that point. Or at least that’s how it feels. On…read more »
Wine Slushie Pops
Summer is officially here, and it’s starting to get hot here in Virginia. Usually that means the start of cocktail season at our house, but now that I’m 30 my body suddenly won’t tolerate the endless stream of sugary, boozy beverages that I want to put into it. Acid reflux and hangovers – they’re no joke, you guys. So,…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Tinto de Verano
Happy Thursday, everyone! It’s been a while, but I’m finally back with a Thirsty Thursday drink post, and y’all…it’s a good one. Tinto de Verano! Ever heard of it? Me neither! Until a few months ago, when we were at a tapas bar, and my friend Amy told us about the summer she spent living with…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Fresh Cherry Champagne Mojitos
Hello hello! It’s me. Interrupting your regularly scheduled EuroTrip 2014 recap to bring you a new installment of Thirsty Thursday! Are you excited??? I’m excited. It’s been two whole weeks since my last Thirsty Thursday post! Like I said before, I did actually make a cocktail for last week, but there was that whole SD card/camera cable…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Ginger Peach Mojito Mocktail
Howdy! Sarah from Snixy Kitchen here. Tina’s off gallivanting around who-knows-where (Iceland? The Netherlands? Paris? Who can keep up with this world traveler?) so she asked me to come drink with you! Fruity, fizzy, thirst-quenching drinks are Tina’s specialty, so I feel honored to be stepping into her shoes for a day. Some big shoes…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Cherry Pie Gin Fizz
As you can probably tell from the low quality photo and haphazard composition above (yes, I did just throw down a random handful of cherries), this week’s Thirsty Thursday post is kind of phoned in. Sorry! Cut me some slack though – it’s been a hell of a week, and I wanted to drink the drink rather than just…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Peach Coolers
Now that the summer solstice has come and gone, summer is well and truly upon us. Which means…it’s hot. Not quite as hot as it was this time last year, but still plenty sticky and gross. And, now that school is out for the summer, DC is flooded with tourists, which I’m convinced makes the city feel…read more »
Thirsty Thursdays: Watermelon Sangria
Guys, it’s Thursday already. How did that happen? Where did the week go? Thank god I had the foresight to make a big pitcher of watermelon sangria on Tuesday because, as always, this week’s Thirsty Thursday really snuck up on me big time. Which is why this post is late…again. Some day I will be super…read more »
