Shaker Face



I thought I would come back to my blog with a vengeance and put my best shaker face forward. Yes it's been a while but like the best of old friends, you can always come back to where you left off - without any hurt feelings. Upon my return, I offer you a gift, a martini recipe. I recently dusted off one of my many martini shakers after realizing how long it had been seen I sired up a tasty concoction. Well, let me say I have no regrets. I found this fun recipe and as a bonus it offers the benefits of anti-oxidants, so really you can always justify one of these for health reasons.
