I went over my sons friends house . They had a little "ice cream social" for the kids last day of school. Kids running amuck, moms sitting on the deck. We were hanging out on her deck with Jimmy Buffet coming out of her deck speakers, and MOJITOS in hand! My goodness, I had 2! and just went to log them in 470 calories!!!!!! yikes! thank God I only had a salad for dinner!

    You've never heard of a mojito?
    I've got to find a "healthy" mojito recipe so you can try it... even though it will not be the same.

    I NEVER drink!!! So this was a treat.
    But I do find myself having a cocktail when I'm with my new friend. She's a partier Mommy!
    I'll have to find those ol' party shoes of mine in the back of my closet!
    It's been a long time since I've actually hung out with someone I really like and feel very comfortable around. I moved to my town 7 years ago, and really haven't met anyone that I really liked or would consider a "friend" until her. BUT, I won't keep drinking those darn things anymore! I'll stick with water or a 95 calorie beer every once in awhile!:laugh: :laugh:
