This easy island cocktail is a tropical paradise for your palate.Īnd, since I can’t be on a remote island, soaking up the sun, I figured I can at least use my imagination as I sip this pretty concoction (and force Boy to massage my feet). Moral of the story: Age is like beauty, it is in the eye of the beholder, and you really are only as old as you feel.Īnyways, so today, on the start of my 32 nd year of life, we are going to celebrate me, my supa’ youthful appearance and all around awesomeness with a cocktail.Ī pretty blue one with a cherry on top, to be exact – Obviously, I immediately wanted to hug him and make him my bestie for life. He said he couldn’t believe it! He thought I was 18-ish. When I told him my age, he looked like he was going to have a heart attack. We proceeded to chit chat a bit and he asked me how old I was… as he was confused and looking around for my parents or chaperone because he didn’t want to leave me roaming the place unattended. However, some super sweet older gentleman (with perfect 20/20 vision I might add) stopped me in the middle of the produce isle the other day to comment on my hat (he liked it, so he had good taste as well). Normally, I wouldn’t be all that thrilled about being a year older, but I’m pretty sure I am aging backwards. But, I hope you have a little bit more chutzpah to party like its 1999, because today is my birthday! Whatever you did, I hope it was fantastically fun. Spend quality time with friends and family? Set off pretty fireworks that actually went boom? Indulge in food that made your mouth go #Boom?

How was everyone’s 4 th of July weekend? Did you celebrate and have a good ‘ole time? Did you: Shel totally forgot to add this line – “And I would gulp up ALL the Rum Blue Island Cocktail!” This easy Rum Blue Island Cocktail is like a taste of the tropics! Made with coconut, citrus, fruity flavors and rum, this libation is smooth and fabulously refreshing!
