Happy Hour: The Tropics in Winter

Mar 8, 2019

Have a bridal or baby shower coming up?  Need a fun cocktail for a birthday party?  Just want an excuse to get your girlfriends together for an easy Friday night cocktail?  Here is the libation that is perfect for all of those events and more.

Hibiscus Mimosas are the easiest drink on the planet.  Just ask Lively Table.  All you need is the champagne you prefer and a jar of hibiscus flowers in syrup.

The flowers sweeten up even the cheapest sparkling wine, and add a festive look to the drink.  They also freshen up the flavor with a hint of tropical sweetness.  The first time I had this cocktail (in an Italian restaurant in Anaconda, MT), I was instantly smitten with the pretty and tasty drink.  Now, it’s my go-to from brunch parties.

Want some gorgeous glasses to serve it in?  Anthropologie always has the best champagne flutes.

This affordable WAYF Rhoda Faux-Wrap Dress is perfect for bridal and baby showers.  It’s pretty, but relaxed.  Dressy, but with a sandal and bangles, still approachable.  I bought it to wear to my nephew’s baptism this weekend.  It’s a great graduation, family occasion, church dress.  Plus, it’s under $150.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
