Man it's been a little while since we've added to the food blog. Oops! Our kitchen is usually a disaster from all of the cooking we do, we've just been so busy we haven't had much time to document and get creative.

This week we decided to start introducing cocktails that we love to the mix. This one has been a big hit with everyone we've introduced it to. Not much of a bourbon drinker myself this was a pleasant surprise.
