Sunrise Spritzer Cocktail

By Melissa 15 Comments

I am winding down from one crazy week. Last week, both kids were on spring vacation. The week was highlighted by AJ's 13th birthday and a quick, but jam-packed college visit tour to the Boston area with Gabrielle. Riddle me this? How do I have an almost 17-year-old and a 13-year-old AND how have they grown so quickly? Two teenagers in the house now. One is searching for the perfect college and the ...

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #RedVelvetLove #CollectiveBiasI LOVE thick milkshakes. You know, the kind that are so thick that you pretty much need a spoon to devour it. Forget the straw when enjoying these kind of shakes, it just won't work. Another great thing about milkshakes is the flavor combination possibilities ...

Chocolate Oreo Cookie Malt

By Melissa 15 Comments

I'll have a malt! Sounds like we are back in the '50s, doesn't it. I often hear my parents reminisce about the old-fashioned soda fountain in their hometown in Western Pennsylvania when they were growing up. I love listening to the stories of their youth. Life was so simple and uncomplicated back then, wasn't it? No technology, no cell phones, no computers and no 352 channels on TV.A ...

Peach Blueberry Sangria

By Melissa 20 Comments

This post contains affiliate links. Before summer rides off into the sunset, I thought I would share one more Sangria recipe with you - Peach-Blueberry Sangria. Of course Sangria can be served year round, but I love being able to use the Jersey Fresh fruit we grow here on our farm in mine. Peach and blueberry season will soon be ending so why not have a refreshing glass of Sangria and toast ...

Strawberry Sangria – A Refreshing Summer Drink

By Melissa 18 Comments

A nice refreshing glass of sangria is often my drink of choice during the summer months. I admit, I am not much of a wine drinker but I do enjoy the sweetness and fruitiness of sangria. Last week, I hosted our monthly "girls night out" which we affectionately call "Book Club," even though the only book all of us ever read was The Barkeepers Best Friend. "Book Club", you see, has nothing to do with ...
