You've heard of putting oatmeal into smoothies for thicker, creamier texture. It works with quinoa, too! Try it in these luscious strawberry shakes.
When the sun won't shine for your birthday party, make a Sunny Sangria instead. :) I've been gearing up the past couple days for my birthday party tonight. We're having about 25-30 people over so it should be a great time! This makes the first of two birthday potlucks this weekend.

I don't like being traditional or seasonal, not to be confused with eating seasonally. What I'm referring to is more of a trend that seems to go around certain times of the year.

Today is Little Boy #1's last day of first grade. So even though it is still technically Spring, Summer is upon me! Living in Arizona, this is the time when we have to mentally gear up for what is coming.
I was at Target yesterday with Little Boys #1 and #2. As if Target wasn't addicting enough on it's own, they have Coke Icee's now. For me these are a favorite from when I was a kid and my mom would buy them for us every time we shopped at K-Mart.
Blood Orange Mojito made with fresh mint, simple syrup, blood orange and lime juice. The perfect cocktail for any occasion! Happy Friday! Time to celebrate with this Blood Orange Mojito! Mojitos are hands down my all time favorite drink. They are so refreshing, light and sweet.
