I have a friend who is going to Hawaii for her 40th birthday with her husband and I would like to give her the Flirting book and wondered if you still have the cocktail cards? I live in Bellevue and can go to B&N if they have them??
You signed one for my niece in December, I think it was and I gave it to her because she turned 40 in February and she loved the book and got your others. Maybe you should do a Fine with 50s and a Sexy 60s book someday so I can give them as presents, too.
Hope we get our summer weather back soon!

I love cocktails. My ultimate favourite is one I discovered on my own, though I’m sure there’s a name for it. My previous drink was Kahlua and Vodka (White Russian), but I soon discovered that Coconut Rum makes a great substitution for the Vodka. I’m not a rum drinker, but the coconut flavour of Malibu Coconut Rum is smooth and irresistible. Now it’s my favourite cocktail…guess I could call it a White Coconut

I would have to say that one of my favorites is a Margarita on the rocks with salt. Yummmmy. Nothing like a good margarita on a Friday night sitting by the pool watching the kids swim.

I always used to order Mai Tais, then then last few years, Cadillac margaritas have been IT. Funny, but now I am back into Mai Tais. MMM…they are good, but would be so much better sitting on the sand in Hawaii!!

MMMM…just thinking about it made my mouth water. The drink is called a Lava Flow and I had it in Hawaii a couple of months ago. It was amazing and wow, was it potent. I loved it. In the real world, I love a good Bud Light Lime. That takes me away…

You just brought back some memories! I went to Hawaii when I was married and we went somewhere and had a Mai Tai. Best alcoholic beverage I’ve ever had in my life! I’ve ordered it here and it wasn’t the same.

My usual drink is a strawberry margarita, no salt. However, I recently went to a friend’s house and they served up a pretty darned good martini.

Mostly I drink Sprite O but I do enjoy a good mixed drink every now in then. A good margarita or something fruity, works for me.

I don’t drink alcohol but I love a drink with Mango in it. I add different juices to cold Iced Tea such as Apple Juice, Mango, Peach.
Yummy!!!
