Hump Day Happy Hour: White Wine Mojito

I stumbled across this drink at a fabulous lunch spot on Saturday and felt the need to share!

  • 1 bottle of white wine
  • 2 limes
  • 1 cup of chopped mint leaves
  • 1 cup of sparkling lemonade

Mix all this together in a pitcher with ice and enjoy!

Tipsy Favs: Jeans

Tipsy gals are here again to weigh in on our fav jeans.  Here’s our picks and our comments as to why they hug in all the right places.

  1. Sarah: Seven for All Mankind Bootcut Stretch Jeans: I like these jeans because they’re a) long enough to wear with boots or heels for my 5′ 11″ frame, b) curvy enough to fit my booty well,  and c) expensive enough that I have to cherish the one pair I own! :)
  2. Der:  Levis 537s Description Der found that she say is perfect: The Levi’s 537 Flare Jean is a classic Levi’s style. The soft heavy feel of the denim and five pocket styling are the perfect combination. The 537 is built to withstand all of the wear and tear that you can dish. Der’s description :) : I feel like they hug all the right places and look great dressed up or down. BUT, I have the HARDEST time locating them. I had to buy my last pair off ebay because I couldn’t find ANY stores that sell them. BIG BUMMER. In fact, the only pic I could find is on ebay so if your a lucky size 8…snatch these UP!
  3. AK:  Joes Jean’s are my fav “going out” jeans somehow these jeans make my butt and thighs look a little smaller than they really are.  Maybe its the pocket placement or the seam placement but they are definitely worth the price to make things in the mirror smaller than they appear.  Levi 515s are my fav “knock around” jeans.  I’ve had a pair of these for a good 10-12 years and they are my go-to slouch-o-rama, weekend jeans.  They’re like butta.
  4. Court:  Old Navy Sweetheart These jeans hold up in harsh washing conditions, keep their color and don’t loose their boot cut leg which helps to balance out my curvy figure.

Ladies all shapes, sizes, and budgets–let us know what your favs are.

iPhone Apps: Where’s Waldo

So my last iPhone app post was about games for the wee ones and today I’m gonna show you a game that is probably supposed to BE for the wee ones but I seem to like it just fine.

Do you guys remember the books Where’s Waldo where you find the little dude in the striped shirt in the midst of a ton of other distracting things?  I sure do, I believe I had a Where’s Waldo t-shirt that I worked out in, when I was 22 12. I honestly don’t think I’m alone because I in fact just saw a Where’s Waldo book in the waiting room of my NON pediatric dentist’s office just last week.  So there.

Well now they have a Where’s Waldo iPhone app.  I find it quite addicting and to me its always nice to have something to do if I’m waiting somewhere and I don’t have anything to read and I just really want to zone out…It’s a mindless yet satisfying little app.

Etsy Spotlight: Sweetness by Sarah Lamont

Court got us geared up for Easter this morning with all the goods for her son.  So I thought I’d continue the trend and do an Etsy Spotlight on Sweetness by Sarah Lamont.  For those of you with little munchkins you are probably going to want to jump on this STAT.  These are totally adorable bunny ear hats!  And modeling the one that we purchased for our first Easter last year is my little Jackrabbit!
