It's here, it's here!
Our 4 of 4 is officially three years old today!
Happy Birthday sweet baby girl.
Oh this girl has been looking forward to her birthday for a while now. She is very excited.
We are having a small family dinner to celebrate this weekend, which I have been instructed that I need to cook the pizzas and not order them, grandma must get her a cake and I MUST buy balloons.
OK little one, if that's all you want, you got it!
Even though I wasn't crazy about yesterday's cocktail, Golden Cadillac, I still wanted to try that Creme Brulee Martini.
Bad decision.
Grrrrr.
I really don't like it when I try two bad cocktails in a row!
The Frangelico was a bit too much. Now the recipe called for an ounce of Frangelico, so I decided to use a little less to try to take some of its flavor away.
Didn't matter, it still tasted like too much was in there.
I also don't think that the Cointreau added anything good to this cocktail either.
Oh well, good news is that I will be celebrating my little one's birthday tonight and that will make it all better.

Here is a photo of the ingredients:
Here is my modified version of Creme Brulee Martini:
- 1 1/2 ounces vanilla vodka
- 3/4 ounce hazelnut liqueur
- 1/2 ounce cointreau
- 1 ounce half and half
In a shaker, add ice and all of the ingredients above. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass.
Happy Happy Birthday to my little girl. Our lives are complete with you in them. Mama loves you!
Cheers!!
