Garden Update: Holy Growing, Batman!

I don't know about y'all, but my garden is going ape shit. Everything is growing like it's on MiracleGro The Godzilla Version - it's not of course, but still. Spouse was completely correct in suggesting I move everything to the middle-ish of the patio, even though it means pots are sort of in the way of enjoyment of the deck furniture. All of the plants get so much more sun every day! 

Anyhoo, photographic evidence. 

Summer Cocktails - only good with the right ingredients and company.

I was never much of an imbiber, but slowly have become one. When I was in my teens I may or may not have had a fake ID but I got it so I could get into the good dancing clubs, just to dance. Yes, I am that big of a nerd.  Side note: according to my fake ID, I am 47. It seemed like a much better trade-off at 16, when I was "21".

Then I became a beer snob and then I became a wino (wine snob), which I blame on Spouse as he is also both. The good thing with being a snob about liquid is I drink but not to excess, generally speaking. I drink because I really enjoy whatever it is I have in my glass and, let’s face it, normally I’m in excellent company too, so what better way to hang out with my favorite peeps than with an adult beverage.

When I moved to The ‘Shire, though, I discovered a love for cocktails. And white wine, but that’s not nearly as exciting as cocktails. With cocktails, there is infinite variety even with just a few ingredients.
