Summary: It so freakin’ cold today! But I can’t be doing cold weather cocktails just yet plus almost half of my readers are getting into the warm. I had a bunch of limes, courtesy of the prolific gardener girl CA, and I fancied a drink with some sort of new flavour! Ah yeah, flavour! This really hit the spot…..plus it’s National Sewing Month & Me Made May. Stitchin’ and bitchin’ yes, oh I mean YESSSS!!! But drinking and stitching though, that’s definately not advised! So Mocktail on me! Don’t you just love the vintage fly cover?
