Babies & booze

Forgot to mention that this Saturday saw the delivery of my new baby cousin twins, Joey & Nevi!  (Congrats to Carrie & John AND the proud grandparents; thought Aunt Becki & Uncle Joe might burst from joy!)

And wanted to add a recipe for my current favorite nightcap I made up, the Peppermint Pillow:

  • one shot each peppermint schnapps & vanilla vodka in a coffee cup (eyeball it, as Rachel Ray sez)
  • top with marshmallows (two big ones cut in half, although a little handful of small ones would probably be good, too)
  • add a piece of candy cane, since you have leftovers from decorating the tree (at least I do!)
  • fill the cup with milk
  • microwave for 90 seconds, so it gets good & hot and the marshmallows puff up
  • top with a shot of whipped cream from a can, since you bought too much at Costco (oops, am I projecting again?)
