Happy Memorial Day weekend ladies! Word on the street is sunny here, hope the same for you wherever you are!
Tonight I will be drinking
BLUEBERRY MOJITO-
Mojitos are my favorite cocktail!
Blueberries are full of antioxidants . Will that help to counteract the rum?
4-5 sprigs of mint (mint tops)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 ounce simple syrup
4 tablespoons blueberries, divided
1/4 cup white rum
1/4 cup club soda
Place mint sprigs, lime juice and syrup and 3 tablespoons blueberries in a highball glass. Muddle with a muddler for few seconds, holding the glass at its base. Fill up with cubed ice, white rum and soda. Stir and serve with a sprig of mint and remaining whole blueberries.
I will need it because my day includes playing hooky with my kids and doing some of this...
The kids want to go on a hike today.
Wave goodbye to my lovelies while wearing my white tuxedo
and look forward to this
I Hope I have enough coffee because I plan on laying around and drinking it for a large chunk of the weekend. I plan to make it to the gym as well but that seems a bit counterproductive to the whole relaxing thing-the greater good I suppose.
Enjoy your time ladies! This hopefully marks the beginning of a wonderful summer.
Visit Ann for more people playing tonight

Those sound like some awesome weekend plans! I'm jealous, my weekend will probably be a bore! :)
Happy VGNO!
Enjoy that quiet weekend. Try to relax, the kids will be back before you know it. That Blueberry drink looks delicious.
Have a great VGNO!
MMMM! My eyes might be crossed, but my skin will look terrific! I really am waiting for you to come out with a bar book...I told you, I am your first advanced copy.
Enjoy your kid-free zone while it lasts. I on the other hand, will be working my fanny off.

Ha ha - too funny! When I gave my presentation to the med students I told them that I was confused by my diagnosis - after all, I maintained a low fat, high fibre diet; I exercised and I drank A LOT of red wine - for the antioxidants!
Enjoy your weekend - it sounds lovely. I am walking the in the Relay for Life this weekend. I have stocked up on none of the low fat/high fibre foods that I speak so lovingly about! Junk food all the way this weekend!
1. Love Mojitos. That looks fantastic. i have fresh mint in the backyard so I know that drink is going to be made this weekend.
2. I have a hooky day once a year with my kids. I hope you had/have a great time.
I love the pictures and hope you have a wonderful weekend. I off with your drink in hand HAPPY VGNO

Thanks for stopping by and leaving some diet tips. At this point I can use them all. Very impressed with the five mile hike. I know that exercise needs to be a big part of helping me lose weight.

That drink looks delicious!
Have a fantastic weekend. I am SO jealous. I have nothing planned. Well, unless you call chasing after my kids and begging them to "please be quiet for five minutes, JUST FIVE MINUTES!" a plan.
Happy Memorial Day... have a great weekend.
I see, you'll have an amazing weekend... The mojito looks perfect (I love blueberries). If you like cocktails I want to recommend you caipicastro, I discovered that yesterday evening. (caipirinha with rum ;-))
Thanks for sharing the blueberry mojito recipe! Have a great weekend!
Love and Light~OM girl
I'm a day late, but I swear I had a good excuse!
Check out my blog & you'll see why.
Anyway, hope you have fun while the kiddies are away. Don't let yourself do work!
That drink sounds great. Running a little late on VGNO but better late than never.
Stopping by for VGNO...(a little late). That blueberry mojita sounds amazing. Will need one after the weekend is over!
