Foliage


I recently discovered the foliage setting on my camera and though I'd share the flowers I recieved last week on Valentines Day. The boquet is mainly composed of roses and lillies. I never knew lillies smelt so amazing! I enjoy flowers most when they're growing wildly in fields yet there's something about recieving flowers that really makes you feel special.

If only lime trees grew outside my window...

...I would create the most lovely lime juice concentration and offer lime daiquiris to the people of the streets. Unfortuanetely my current location is not overly accomodating of lime growth so store bought limes and concentrate will have to suffice.

Lime daiquiris are simple to prepare yet quite satisfying none the less.

Lime Daiquiri (single)

10-15 ice cubes

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup rum

3 TBL lime concentrate

A lime

________________

Chop ice in blender

Blend in run and lime concentrate

Slice 1/2 the lime and place in glass

Pour in daiquiri and sqeeze in the juice from the remaining lime half
