Uh oh. We're in trouble here. We have made the most wonderful gin and tonics! Thank you California. Thank you for your more reasonable prices on liquor. Thank you that a bottle bigger than my head is sold at Costco - which my not be best for us. Thank you California for growing wonderful limes that are yellow that I can not remember the name of... they are delightful. I got them at our local farmers market and now I want my own tree.







I also found a new tonic to try at the grocery store. We used to get Schwepps in the little glass bottles. I didn't like the fact that they used high fructose corn syrup. I try to avoid the stuff since reading the Omnivore's Dilemma. Well I was delighted to see that Hansens had small cans of tonic using real cane sugar. They taste great and they have 20 less calories, 3g less sugars, and no sodium. I like to use the Livestrong website now and again to look up nutritional information.








We like to serve them up in our his and hers glasses. Jess has the mustache and I went with the octopus. I thought the octopus was a good representation of motherhood and the need for eight arms. They were very nice. I think my favorite so far. We are in trouble.
