I looked at pictures of my Mom on Mother’s day.  Cooper would be 5 inches taller than her now if she was alive.

I am grateful she was in his life long enough for her to wear off on him. 

I feel her through him sometimes and it’s the best.

Blueberry Mojito

Blueberry Mojito is a refreshing cocktail! Muddled mint and blueberries add color to your life! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com

When restaurants opened back up, my first dinner out with a friend included a delicious Blueberry Mojito!  It was light and refreshing!  Now that the weather is warming up and I’m growing mint it will probably be a new go-to happy hour cocktail.

My version includes vodka instead of rum. I find it makes it more refreshing! Hope you like it too! Cheers!
