This is my first Water Cooler entry…Yea!

To embrace the hot days of summer,  we had a Merlot Summer Potluck at the office. Everyone brought their favorite summer dish to share (mine was the coconut cake) and Brenda’s contribution was good ole margaritas. Not only did they taste great but she put little umbrellas in our drinks for a pretty presentation. Well after lunch and drinking the margaritas, I decided to put the umbrellas to good use by decorating mine and Zsavonne’s (AKA “Z”) hair.

At first, Z was not a willing participant until she saw how cute my hair looked. Then she let me put one in her hair too not knowing it was sticking out of the top of her head (see pictures). We both had a good laugh!

Now that’s what I call Creative Chic.  

Oh and did I mention, there was no alcohol in the margaritas?

Cheers!

While at Sunset magazine’s celebration weekend, I was treated to a drink I just have to share. It was the best cocktail I have ever tasted (other than merlot, of course)! Here’s the recipe just in time for your July 4th celebrations:

RED, WHITE & SPARKLING!

3 oz. Pinot Grigio

1 TBLS Simple Syrup

1 TBLS Lemon Juice

–pour  into martini shaker over ice, then pour into a martini glass. Add a TBLS of Chambord (pour it slowly down one side of the glass so it pools at the bottom), then top it off with Brut Champagne.  It’s amazing! Crisp, cool and not too sweet! Enjoy!
