Hey mommas! Happy Friday to ya! March is finally here!! I am so excited! March makes me think of the start of mojito season! YES!!!!! However, spring is a little late here in Oklahoma this year so I'm still waiting patiently for the arrival of my mint plants to come back to life from their winter sleep. We did just have 4 days of ice and snow last week, so I guess I'll have to wait a little longer for spring to arrive. But don't worry mommas-- it won't be too long until I give you the first mojito recipe of the year...hopefully in time for spring break! ;)
Speaking of spring, our spring arrivals have been pouring in and they are to-die-for. You are going to love this new collection. Set your alarm clocks because this gorgeous collection is dropping Monday, March 12th at 10am and you don't want to miss it! Think beautiful floral prints, bold stripes, and gorgeous muted colors in sage green, blush, and seafoam blue. PLUS, we have some gorgeous accessories to go with them! Eeek!! I'm so excited to show you mommas!
In other news, there's a new addition to my own family--an adorable Golden Retriever puppy named Stella! She is seriously the cutest. Is there anything more perfect for spring than a sweet little puppy? I have an inkling that she'll be showing up in some of our pics because I just can't resist! Speaking of, guess who's sound asleep at my feet right now as I'm writing this?! Yep that would be Stella...aka Mojito Puppy. Be on the lookout for her to be making her Momma Mojito debut soon!
This week's cocktail is a classic. Simple, refreshing, and delightfully easy. I'm sure you all know it too. It's what you simply called in college a "Vodka Cranberry." But that's not very exciting. Cape Cod sounds much more interesting. Regardless of the name, this drink is a breeze and you need to know how to make it. Cheers mommas and have a great weekend!! :)
xo, Momma Mojito
