Two things.
Jun. 24th, 2009 01:48 pmOne, this recipe is maybe the most perfect thing ever.
2 parts tequila (silver, please. BLANCO TEQUILA ES MUY BIEN!)
1 part lemoncello (I <3 U, Southern Italians. Gratzi.)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tsp simple syrup (or agave nectar if you can get it - it's kinda good for you, says vegans and helath-type folks)
club soda.
Shake first four, ice in glass, pour over top, top with club soda. (If you can get Tampico club soda, there's nothing better.)
HI SUMMER. YOU ARE NOW IN MY MOUTH. Mmmmm.
Two: this picture has been cracking me up every time I think of it. (Under the cut to spare those of you with dial up.)

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!I laugh every single time.....
I've got fresh ears of corn that are going to get cut off the cob, lightly salted and peppered, and eaten raw. That's how good and sweet these ears are. OM NOM NOM. hello summer, with your delicious treats to soothe me when it's triple digits outside... (Think 38 - 40 C folks in UK, etc.)

ALSO, I am coming to your house to eat your food RIGHT NOW. Pour me a drink baby.
(Also, I was thinking of you when watching The Barefoot Contessa make frozen mango daquiris and putting them in little plastic bags in the freezer, because she'd made enough for her guests plus "some for emergencies." I like the idea of daquiri emergencies.)

Date: 2009-06-24 11:20 pm (UTC)LOL, that's a great idea - ER daquiris! I'm not typically a frozen drink drinker, but that's because I'm a lush - they tend to have less alcohol, hee. But let's face it: if it's cold and the mercury's rising, I'll down it.

We actually - for a town of 2,000 - have two restaurant/bars with write-ups in Yankee Magazine's "Best of New England."
Uh-huh, I am having out of town guests next week, why do you ask?
