Favorite things [1]

So .. I decided to do a post on a few of my favorite thingsssssss. I will dedicate this day (Wednesday) to things I love. It will have a clever name. I will call it Wicked Favorite Wednesdays.

That's right. I even made a button. Don't say I'm not THE BEST BLOGGER EVER.

So there we have it. My first thing that I have decided is totally awesome? Blue drinks. There is something to be said about the color blue, allow me to explain.
Blue is fabulous. It's the color of the ocean AND the sky. It's a universal color. That's so deep you don't even understand what it means (or at least -I don't). Blue is calm& cool -like me. Almost everyone likes some shade of the color blue -again, like me. Mostly everyone likes me at least sometime in their life. It might be short lived or it might be a lifetime of longing to be as cool& calm as me. I am the living embodiment of -no. Not Christ. Even better - BLUE!

Now, why are blue drinks the best? They are so pretty .. they are tropical .. they are delicious .. they get you hammered. Many a person (aka 4) have asked for my recipe for my 'blue drink'. It doesn't have a name, or I don't know it and am way too lazy to look it up.

I have graciously decided to take the time to write it out for you.

1. Take a glass.
2. Add as much vodka as you can without feeling ashamed*
3. Add some blue Bols
4. Add a drop of 7-Up to decrease the chances of being shipped to AA.
5. Enjoy.
*Blogger Warning: Amount you can add without shame increases greatly when either drinking or mixing alone. At least have your dog give you a withering stare. It helps. Trust me. Thanks, Squirt.


Here is a photo of the steps. Just call me the next Van Gogh.

Now you have the visual. Here are some shots of fancy blue drinks :)

What are some of YOUR favorite things?! Let's link up ..or whatever it is you do when you own a blog& make a button.

Photos!

Okay, so double post. I'm currently enjoying a beautiful blue drink (thanks world, for not still having a ban on alcohol. Mostly just vodka) and have edited my photos. They are now ready to be uploaded. First, I have to give a shout out to Mom, Dad and Garret because they have ALL contributed to my favorite things: photos.
All of them pitched in with purchasing lenses, tripods, photoshop, lightbox and more! You three people are awesome :)

So, since my last blog was exceedingly long, I'll leave you with just my photos. Yesterdays' first. It's a photo of a book someone got for Mom and it's about stress. It's cute and made me smile. The photo didn't get all the words, but I still like it. Mostly because I like the book.

And now, for today. My photo is obviously my blue drink! I have no idea if it's a good photo ..but it's blue, has vodka in it and I'm drinking it. So who cares?! If you know me at all, you recognize my complete love for blue drinks. The love is so strong I taught a Cuban bartender how to make my drink. Take that, Cuba.

Oh, one bonus photo before I leave you folks. The Morning Mashup is, seriously, the only reason I bother going to classes in the mornings. They are hilarious and if you have satellite radio, you should listen to them. If you don't, I guess good on you for supporting the local radio businesses ahaha. So today, Nicole from the show tweets a photo of Nerds (alongside blue drinks, Nerds are another favorite!) and I reply saying as much. She tweeted me back ..aw, isn't that just the sweetest thing?! Here's her reply:

I feel so famous. Hahaha it did seriously make me smile, as lame as that is!

Hope your night is going as completely fabulously as mine! Really, even half as fabulously would still be pretty great :) Either way, embrace it. You'll never have this night again!
