Doing whatever makes me happy.
And it was very good in a steamer!
08.11.2025 21:29 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The bespoke syrup journey continues - today we have Earl Grey syrup. Now to re-find that Earl Grey martini recipe I saw previouslyโฆ I bet this would also be fantastic in a steamer. ๐ด๐ฝ๏ธ
08.11.2025 18:08 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Tonightโs Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is the Spiced Apple Cider Manhattan! We subbed the maple syrup for the cinnamon spice syrup I made last week to amp up the autumn vibes. I quite like it - Andrew says he would go with a bit less syrup next time. The recipe we used is below. ๐๐๐งถ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ด๐ธ

05.11.2025 01:58 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Tonightโs Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is the Mรฉnage ร Quatre! Ungava gin, Cointreau, Lillet Blanc, and lemon juice - itโs a lovely citrussy drink and not terribly sweet. The recipe is below. The book Iโm reading is How to Summon a Fairy Godmother by Laura J. Mayo. ๐ธ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ด๐งถ๐๐

01.11.2025 01:38 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Halloween doubleheader Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew - a Spiced Honey Whisky Sour! I like this one, although Andrew says he would step back the simple syrup a bit. We used the spiced syrup I made today rather than plain simple syrup. The recipe we based it on is below! ๐ด๐ฝ๏ธ๐ธ
01.11.2025 00:11 โ ๐ 11 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Itโs a Halloween Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew! This is the Spiced Autumn Aperol Margarita - and I am questioning the wisdom of a drink over ice outside on 10/31, even with the fire! The recipe we used is below - we doubled the lime juice and added in the spiced syrup. ๐ด๐ฝ๏ธ๐ธ ๐

31.10.2025 21:52 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Had to make some simple spiced syrup for tonightโs cocktail. Itโs just 1c sugar, 1c water, 3 cinnamon sticks, 1 star anise, and about 1โ of ginger coins. Simmer for 15 minutes, take off heat and steep/cool for 30 minutes, then strain into a jar. George approves! ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ด๐ธ๐

31.10.2025 11:19 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Tonightโs Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is a doozy - Widowโs Kiss - a potent mixture of 100 proof Apple Brandy, Yellow Chartreuse, and Benedictine. Andrew says this is a one and done cocktail, and I have to agree! The recipe we used is below! ๐ธ๐ด๐ฝ๏ธ

28.10.2025 22:42 โ ๐ 14 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0New recipe tonight - Cheesy White Bean and Tomato bake. I upped the protein by adding about 1.5c of chopped rotisserie chicken as well as 3 big handfuls of baby spinach. Yummy and filling - although I think I would add more liquid next time. The recipe I used is below! ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ด

22.10.2025 10:11 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Knitting Friends - Does anyone recognize this cowl pattern? I had a coffee-and -knitting-basket mishap over the weekend, and found this at the bottom of my basket. No pattern or notes. 140 stitches around (10 stitches to each section). DK weight yarn. Please help! ๐งถ
21.10.2025 23:12 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0And we have a bonus Adventures with Cocktails with Andrew! Not a doubleheader since Iโm not having this one (and Andrew doesnโt like pear so he didnโt have mine). Heโs calling it the Interjection (a Last Word, but with Luxardo Del Santo instead of Green Chartreuse and lemon instead of lime). ๐ธ๐ด๐ฝ๏ธ
21.10.2025 00:02 โ ๐ 13 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Tonightโs Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is the Pear Martini! I like this one - once again, the pear juice and spiced pear syrup are a mild addition, with the St. Germain shining through. I attempted a fancy garnish. I was not successful. The recipe we used is below! ๐ธ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ด๐งถ
20.10.2025 23:53 โ ๐ 18 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0In tonightโs Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is the second one using the spiced pear simple syrup - the Spiced Pear Margarita! We upped the tequila by 1/2oz, and it is quite yummy. It isnโt overwhelmingly pear-y despite pear nectar and the pear syrup - I like it! The recipe we used is below. ๐ธ๐ฝ๏ธ๐งถ
