a proper drink today...

tried this today...more peachy than grapey...just needs a touch of vodka



 
it's memorial day weekend and we're about to head out to a friend's bbq to welcome home her husband from deployment...just gotta finish the pasta salad first (i know, how generic).

i found some cassis orange chu-hi's yesterday at the jusco while out all day at the hinode aeon mall, babiesrus, and then diamond city mall.  thinking about trying to have a drink today, but i'm not committed to it...


yet.

30 something odd days later...

my little frog baby will be 4 weeks old next week.  in the past month, i've discovered that he looks different every day and i'm already wishing he'll stay small and my little nerdy beanie boy.  he prefers to be held by mommy (of course) and loves to fall asleep in my arms.  we tried out the Baby Bjorn yesterday, but he wasn't feeling it.  this week, we ventured out and tested the stroller and our favorite ice cream/pastry shop chain, Chateraise, has new popsicles.  saying that we're addicted to popsicles is an understatement.  we could eat popsicles all day, inject it into our veins and would live in houses made of popsicles and eat the walls, that's how much we buy.  the new flavors i got to try were this creamy watermelon with weird little black ball bits that are supposed to look like watermelon seeds, and of course mango.



man, i love me some mango.  during most of the pregnancy, i insisted on mango ice cream or coconut ice cream every day.  i've never eaten mango or coconut ice cream in my LIFE, until i became pregnant and suddenly it was a great idea and i HAD to have it.

yesterday, we went to diamond city mall to get ice cream at the BR 31 Flavors and they also had a new flavor: mango tango, so i opted for a mango fruit blast, topped with: you guessed it,  mango tango.  needless to say, i wolfed it down.

after the ice cream and a craving for bibimbap which i forcefully neglected, we hit the H&M kids section and scored some cute beanies and a t-shirt for the little frogger.




i hope he becomes a Lost Boy and never grows up...
