Its all Ashley’s fault
July 22nd, 2006
Ashley took such a refreshing picture of her cucumber martinis, that I kept going back to look. On Thursday, I had to go buy the ingredients and try them myself (click her link for the recipe!)
I couldn't find Hendrick's, so bought Tanqueray instead. But I think I'm just not enough of a gin person. So last night, I made a shaker full with vodka instead. Yummmmm.
In knitting..first Embossed Leaves sock was done on Wednesday night. Thursday I casted on sock two and had a slow start. But by last night I turned the heel and picked up the gusset stitches. Now we're truckin' again.
Around a year ago on this day..

I’ve been thinking about doing those socks myself… so many good sock patterns, so little time!

Yay! Another convert–and I’m glad to hear they go well with vodka.
Do you have melon in there too? Because that sounds DELISH.

Thanks for the link to Ashley’s recipe. I’m with you on the vodka. I made it Skye orange and skipped the cointreau. Certainly jazzed up my Saturday night!
