I love a good cocktail recipe. That's probably a given. My go to is Vodka Soda or Champagne anything but thinking I need to move these pretty numbers into the rotation this summer. A drink should look as good as it tastes in my opinion and these all fit the bill

1. Little Rose Spring Cocktail via Martha Stewart 

2. Lavender Mojito via Sugar and Charm 

3. Grapefruit Mojito via Martha Stewart 

4. Lime Sorbet Margaritas via Real Simple 

5. Blood orange Margarita via White on Rice

You know the old adage, it's four o'clock somewhere. Or is it five? Noon?

Speaking of Glitter

My oh my how I love when two of my favorite things collide into one fabulously sparkling sweet treat. Behold the wonderment that is Edible Glitter.

Rooftops and Cake Pops

Over the weekend, we had yet another little get together on our roof deck and I must say, that little spot is fast becoming my favorite place EVER in the history of placedom.

I made cake pops and French Gimlets (fabulous combo by the way) and we partied amongst gorgeous views all night long. It was all sorts of heaven. So today, while I still have visions of sweet treats and sunny views bouncing in my head, I thought it would be fun to pass along my favorite cake pop recipe along with some gorgeous rooftop sanctuaries that I am currently coveting. 

My go-to is Bakerella's Cake Pops and for this fête, I simply switched out the cake flavor for Funfetti Cake and vanilla frosting then smothered those babies in white chocolate, added a splash of rainbow sprinkles and voilà. Totally vegan I promise.

Now on to roof decks...

Doughnuts, Doughnuts, Doughnuts

dreaming of doughnuts today and digging their evolvement into the "it" sweet treat at weddings. Seriously, a doughnut bar...how cool is that? We happened to have doughnuts at our wedding and they were kind of the biggest hit ever. I know, I know, I'm such a trend setter.

Bring on the Bubbly

Oh how I've missed this little blog. I was sweetly reminded by a friend yesterday that it has been far too long since I posted (I blame having way too much fun celebrating the holidays in San Diego)so this goes out to Mr. Michael Whalen, who has patiently waited since December 18th for a post. 

And shocker...it's more cake.

What better way to ring in the New Year then with some sparkling champagne cupcakes? I say bring it. This year has been absolutely crazy busy and full of so much excitement – new marriage, new job, new city. Thank you so much for coming along for the ride. Until next year loves!

Cheers
