Thanks for visiting and commenting! I'm not much of an alcohol person, but I have to admit, the cocktail looks good. Megan's apron is pretty. I will have to rush over to her site and check it out. Have a great day and stop by, again.

Your cocktail looks delish. I'm partial to white wine but have a feeling I would like this one. I wear aprons all the time. They have to have a pocket for my cell phone.
Sarah
Oh my gosh, I have all these ingredients and was wondering if there was a drink I could make! I will check out the aprons, too.
Catherine
Dear Velva, I just love, love, love those aprons!! I always wear an apron. I feel lost if I don't have one on. I guess it is because my mom always wore one and had me wear one as a little girl. Well, I did visit Megan and she is a lovely lady. We both have something in common. We both love the color pink! Well, Velva thank you for visiting. I always look forward to it. Blessings from your friend, Catherine xo
