White Sangria Recipe!

Hi Lovelies! I made some delicious white sangria today and thought I would share the recipe with you! It's wonderfully festive and a fun switcharoo from the normal holiday drinks. Here's the recipe:

Makes 6 cups

1- 750 ml bottle dry white wine, chilled

3/4 cup peach schnapps

6 T frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 16- ounce package frozen unsweetened sliced peaches

3/4 cup seedless green grapes, halved

Mix together, chill, and enjoy!

Lovin Love

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!  

Remember to tell those you love 

how much they mean to you.

I'm normally not one to celebrate silly contrived holidays like this one, but this time I think I'll make an exception. But only because this is a special Valentine's Day. 

I finally have my babe here with me. And he's here to stay.  It's been about 3 weeks since he moved all of his stuff in and I couldn't be happier, minus his choice in curtains...  I love coming home to someone other than my cat (no offense Cricket) <3

Although it is quite an adjustment, I'm sure we've made the right choice.  

I just wish we had a bigger bed...He's kinda tall and a total bed hog.    

Love You Babe!

Merry Christmas!!!

Wishing everyone a wonderful day filled with family & fun!
