Strawberry Surprise #Christmas Morning #juice #recipe

Happy holidays and merry Christmas everyone!! If your family is like mine, you're likely gearing up to tear through gifts and then settle into a yummy breakfast with your kiddos.

Growing up, that means cinnabons and orange juice. Now, I'm a fan of juicing, but not specifically orange juice so I thought I would come up with an alternative that the whole family could enjoy on Christmas morning...and would be lovely with some champagne too!

2 apples
1 pear
1 handful of strawberries

That's it! This recipe is so easy. Start with half an apple, half your pear, then toss in your strawberries and follow with the rest of your apple and pears.

Like I said, a really simple recipe and one that my four year old enjoys...and mommy likes to turn into a Strawberry Mimosa for special occasions.

Enjoy! and Merry Christmas!

Sweet Summer Cocktail, found on Pinterest

Still along the summer entertaining theme, do you have your bar ready for guests and bbq's? I mean more than a cooler of beer...something to really stand out for your guests and make them want to come back?

I love this idea for a summer bbq! Mimosa's are super popular, and you can make them even more festive for the summer by using sorbet instead of fruit juice.

Orange sherbert
Lime Sorbet
Mango Sorbet

The possibilities are endless and you could even set up a DIY bar! Instead of filling your cooler with ice and beer, fill it with ice and sorbet tubs! Just add champagne {which is always a good idea!}

New Years Fashion...lace and crystals

New Years is this weekend, and that means getting dressed up in the prettiest cocktail dress that you can find, adding in some sparkle and having the time of your life.

I absolutely adore this look. It's just so incredibly beautiful and perfect for New Years.

The lace is intricate and feminine, and the crystal sash is delicate and adds the perfect amount of sparkle for New Years Eve.

Accessories wise, I think how they have accessorizes it here is perfect. Just enough shine, not too much...

because you can always pair it with a pair of glittery gold platforms, or even mint green peep toes with a bow detail!

Have a safe and very happy New Years Eve this weekend!!

Fabulous Finds Friday: Pomegranate Champagne

A good cocktail can go a very long way, espeically when you're entertaining family and friends for the holidays.

Fizzy and delicious, and festively red!! Pomegranate juice with champagne! I cannot wait to serve this over the holidays...it's just wonderful!

And for an extra little touch of magical, try freezing the pomegranate seeds in your ice cubes, or maybe even a mint leaf or two.

Birthday Drinks

When I got married a few years ago, aside from the declious cupcake, signature drinks were starting to become insanely popular.

While we didn't have one at my wedding, that doesn't mean that we can't have one at my birthday party!

Take your favourite flavours, and come up with something unique!

What do I love?

Tequila {seriously!}
Pink Lemonade
Strawberries

The perfect combination of sweet and sour! And, it's pink!
