welcome back to my new series summer fridays, where we discuss some favorite things about summertime. do you guys get summer fridays? you know, half-days or full days off during the summer months? wellll i don't. i try not to be too bitter about it though!
i LOVE trying new summery drinks. my family is great about testing new twists on the classics (think mojitos, sangria) and never varies our now-perfected secret-family-recipe for margaritas (maybe i'll have to share later in the summer?! hmmm), but sometimes we like to go someplace totally new. last year was all about the pimm's cup. this year...who knows?
