Grandma's Christmas Gift

Last christmas, my parents asked me to paint a picture for grandma. She wanted both me and my sister. Painting of relatives  is a nerve wrecking experience, as well as drawing or painting for anyone that is paying me. I would rather burn my creation, but they want to hang it on a wall.

I'm not saying they have bad tastes in art.

I'm just saying… well I'm not sure what I'm saying.

But whatever it is I was trying to say, wasn't going to be negative. 

The Drink I Fell in Love With…

This drink is soooo easy to make and I love it! Perfect for summer! It's called a "Hey Kool-Aid", but there is actually no Kool-Aid in it.

Hey Kool-Aid Recipe

2.oz UV cherry vodka

4-5 oz lemonade 

Fill glass with ice. Add cherry vodka. Fill with lemonade.

9% (18 proof)

Serve in: Highball Glass

Found the recipe on Drink Mixer

I didn't use UV vodka, I used Smirnoff Cherry and for the lemonade I used Simply Lemonade Brand. I used these brands of drinks only because it's what Tom's mom had on hand and I am not picky. I also took it upon myself to add some candied cherries though. Those things are delicious! 

Hope you all are having a fun summer! Remember to relax and if you can, enjoy the sunshine!
