Witches Brew


Big news at our house today....my husband found us a house to rent in Colorado!  It has been hard for him to find something.  He has gone to see a few places, but there have been 6 or 7 people interested in each place.  So it was a huge relief for him to secure a place today, and it is a nice place!  As of right now it looks like we will be moving over Thanksgiving.  Next up we have to find a lot, so we can start building a house.  I am starting to get excited!  Plus only 5 days until hubby comes home!

Today as the Halloween fun continues I made for you Witches Brew!  This really isn't a recipe, just a method.  It is so easy, and you could change this up in so many ways.  I made a kid friendly drink, but you could easily make this into a cocktail for an adult Halloween Party.  This is a fun drink for kids!  When else do you get to have "worms" in your drink?  You could even put this in a big punch bowl for a party.

Strawberry Aqua Fresca and a Winner!!



Time to announce the winner of my Giveaway!!

I can't figure out how to get Random.org's display here. But it generated number the 44! Lindsey from Lindselicious is the winner of 2 bags of nuts/dried fruits provided by Oh! Nuts!!  Congratulations!

Back to the strawberries!  I had never made strawberries into a drink before, so I figured why not give it a try! I have been hesitant to write this post, because the picture is not a good one.  I don't know what happened, but no matter what I do, it is not as pretty as I want it to be.  But it was cool and refreshing and just yummy, so I feel like you will move beyond the picture and try this!  I am sure there are plenty of different ways to spice this up, or turn it into a cocktail, but I didn't get that far.  If you do, let me know how it turns out!
