"Two quick notes on the use of raw eggs in cocktails: 1) There's nothing to worry about as long as you use fresh eggs from a reliable source. I used fresh organic brown eggs. 2) When using egg whites in cocktail recipes, I prefer to do a dry shake (shake egg white by itself) first for 30 seconds to 1 minute in order to really froth the white, before adding the remaining ingredients and shaking again."

The Mad Ones

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing but burn, burn, burn like fabulous roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!"

swimingly

It's almost swimsuit season [AAHHH!] and I need to buy a new bathing suit. I was reading the latest edition of "Real Simple" and this bathing suit was featured in it, isn't it a beauty!? It is so hard to find such pretty one-piece bathing suites. I and thinking that maybe people are beginning to go back to wearing one-piece bathing suits. This bathing suit would either make my hips look huge, or it could be extremely flattering with the scrunching on the sides.

The company that designed this swimsuit Malia Mills has a lot of really beautiful swim wear. I think it is definitely worth checking out! The one down side to this whole thing is that it is $395 dollars and I cannot afford to buy a bathing suit that is that much money :(

Maybe sometime when I am out of school and have a steady job, I will be able to buy it!
