Thirstday: In honor of Kathy Lee & Hoda

Thursday again and almost to the weekend!! In honor of this day I'd like to start a weekly Thirsty Thursday blog post. Every Thursday I will provide a new drink recipe from my "Cocktails and Such" Pinterest board. This way we can all start off our weekend in the right direction and can share our new recipe with friends before a night out on the town, or even a movie night in.

Today's drink is Pink Grapefuit Margaritas (serves 4).



Things you will need include:

  • 1 Cup Ruby Red Grapefuit Juice
  • 1/2 Cup Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice
  • 1 Cup Triple Sec Orange Liqueur
  • 3 Cups Ice
  • 1 Cup Silver Tequila
  • 1 Lime Cut in Wedges
  • Salt to rim the glass
Combine the Ruby Red Grapefuit Juice, Lime Juice, Triple Sec and ice in a blender. 
Pour the contents in to a pitcher and add the tequila. 
Then rim your glasses with salt and a lime wedge and pour your drink!

Hope y'all enjoy! Let me know what you think!

Time to Face Reality Tuesday

While on my Pinterest grind this morning I came across this Graduation Pin and I thought "Wow this couldn't fit my life any more perfectly right now"...



With the school year winding down and the weather warming up (well it has been up until the past couple of days) the ability to focus has become extremely hard. With graduation in less than a month my emotions are out of control, going from extremely happy to nostalgic in .2 seconds. This past weekend I had my sorority senior formal, and needless to say I was an emotional train wreck. But one thing I have learned is I am beyond blessed with the people who have come in to my life these past four years. 

Right before formal!
I have truly met my best friends who have not only seen me grow, but have also played a part in making me the person I am today. 

So where do we go from here? Luckily, that path is up to us. Follow your dreams and never give up. 

Maybe reality really won't be so bad.

What are some of your biggest dreams?
