Cheers!

Is this a great photo or what!?! I made strawberry daiquiris last night and they were so yummy I thought I would get a photo of one for my blog and as I pointed the camera Marshall walks up and licks the glass. What a turd! After I made strawberry daiquiris I made pina coladas and then we mixed the two together. I slept well last night. Bill kept saying "I'm not getting drunk off these" but his speech was slightly slurring so I just poured him another one.

Tomorrow we're driving east near Bend, Oregon to Cultus Lake to go camping and ride our mountain bikes around the lake. The trail around is about 12 miles and it's described as moderately hard but I'm so out of shape I'm sure it will feel quite difficult. I finally made it to swim class this week and hammered the main set. I haven't done that in months. I'm so tired now, my entire upper body is throbbing. After the swim I realized that it's a lot more difficult to be pissed off at the world when your physically exhausted.

Here's a recipe (modified) to make these fresh strawberry daiquiris:

• 6 cups ice
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 4 ounces frozen strawberries (we used fresh not frozen)
  
• 1/8 cup lime juice
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 3/4 cup rum
• 1/4 cup lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage (we left this out and used more lemon juice)
  

Cheers! I'm ready for another!
