Two recipes in a row. I'm getting in a rut. But then, ever since I was a kid, Easter for me has always been rut territory.
I'm done with Winter but it isn't done with me. Even if it's warming up in Canada, we're dealing with melting snow, mud and other things that curtail outdoor activities.
Used to be the local world went radio silent for Good Friday, took a quick gasp of breath on Saturday and then settled in for a long quiet Sunday of Lily pots and Ham at Grandma's house. When the high point is unearthing days old hard boiled eggs, it always made me long for school on Monday.
And even now, when I'm at an age where I could hide my own eggs, it still bores the ass off me.
What better excuse than to get drunk.
And with the help of Easter treats like Marshmallow Peeps you can do that in a way that would make the Easter Bunny proud.
I give you then, not one but two Easter Cocktail instruction videos as well as my own favorite cocktail of the season.
You'll be instantly sugared up and hammered. How could you not...
Enjoy your Sunday!
