Happy Hour: Low Calorie Cocktails

Jul 26, 2019

How many times have you come home from work after a long week, and you just need to unwind?  Put on some bad television, order takeout, wear your Lululemons, and just chill.  Maybe your chill time could use a cocktail, but so many recipes are for four cocktails, and you just need one.

Enter, Greatist.

The fine people at Greatist have put together a list of 60 healthy-ish cocktails in recipes for one drink a piece.  From white sangria to boozy Arnold Palmer’s to mojitos of all kinds, you can make one fun drink for yourself (and maybe for a friend), and just relax. Because there is nothing like rolling into the weekend refreshed.

In the cooler months, all I want for a relaxing Friday night is Lulus and a loose fitting sweatshirt.  No muss, no fuss.  But in the summer, with limited access to AC, and my dogs’ evening walk to think about, I need something a little cooler and a little nicer.

This tank dress from Daily Ritual is one of my favorites.  It’s comfortable, soft, and just breezy enough to keep you cool.  For shorter option, their boxy tee dress has the easy shape you need to be relaxed.  Plus-size?  Check out their jersey v-neck dress.

Now, if you will excuse me, I am going to clear off my to-do list, clean up my house, and settle into my weekend with a glass of White Sangria and a Greek Mezze bowl, while Kyle goes out with his friends.  It’s going to be awesome.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
