I tried the whiskey sour recipe last night. Wonderful! Thanks for the recipe. I have never made the simple syrup before. Double batches help : ) Congratulations Kristy!!

Thanks! Perfect late summer drink (not there yet, I know, but we're nearing it). For early summer, I was mixing up mojitos by the pitcher. And in doing so, I realized a short cut for simple syrup: nuke it! So much easier than dealing with the stove in hot weather, I think. Ah, yum, whiskey sours. Thanks!

After all, I had bragged that I would undertake a lace item with the pink cone of wonder. As I am currently humbled by a pair of children's socks, I feel like I've been given a reprieve! Congratulations Kristy! Here is my summer drink of choice, which I was introduced to at a Quilt Retreat by a very with-it senior citizen: Gray Goose Cosmo 1.5 oz gray goose vodka or other good brand 1 oz Coitreau or Triple Sec 1/4 oz Rosa's lime juice Tiniest splash of cranberry juice Mix all in cocktail shaker over ice and strain. You will feel like you are Sarah Jessica Parker!

I'm partial to a gin & tonic, but this could be a nice change. I'm looking forward to seeing the Pink Cone of Wonder in person :) Thanks Ellen! That looks like it would be a great summer drink!
