HAPPY
BIRTHDAY TO GRANDDAUGHTER CHEYANNE!!!
We had
planned to go to Sanibel Island today for some shell hunting. But, we decided that I probably didn’t need a
full day in the sun. I got quite a
sunburn on Saturday when we went to the baseball game even though I was wearing
SPF 50 sunscreen. From now on we will
probably be running into Spring Break crowds on the beaches so we’ll have to go
early in the morning when we finally do get over to the island.
Temperatures
have been in the mid to upper 80s everyday, the humidity varies from wonderful
to pretty muggy. We have been enjoying
one of these most days. It’s a pint
mason jar with frozen wine “slushy”. It
is very refreshing on a hot afternoon. I
have some half pint jars and that would probably be enough to cool us off, but
the pint jars fit really well in a soft drink can koozie.
To make a wine slushy:
Mix 2 oz. wine (right now we are using key lime wine, last week it was
black current, I think any wine would be pretty good), 2 oz. margarita mix and
2 oz. water in each pint mason jar. Put
the jars in the freezer. When the mix is
frozen, scrape and poke it with a fork to make it slushy and eat it with a
spoon.
We rode into
Clewiston to pick up a few groceries. We
finally found a pool noodle for me so I can enjoy the pool. Swimming is another thing I didn’t conquer
when I was younger. Our grandson Jackson
suggested I needed some “big girl swimees”.
Since I don’t think they make “swimees” that big, I settled for a pool
noodle.
