Happy New Year, everyone! For many of you, this may be your first day back at work after the holidays. I feel that pain.

I'm back in the office after being out for nearly two weeks (!!). Was it fun while it lasted? Absolutely. Am I wishing that I was slightly more productive over break? Yes.

Alas. I think we could all use a drink after the work day is through.

    Hello! I could have sworn I've visited this blog before
    but after going through many of the posts I realized it's new to me.
    Anyhow, I'm definitely pleased I discovered it and I'll be book-marking it and checking
    back often!

    I've never tried a Moscow Mule but yours looks so seducing that it's hard to resist even if you don't want an alcoholic drink. With rosemary as one of my favorite herbs you just can't go wrong.

      Thanks for stopping by, Gabi! Moscow Mules are some of my favorite types of co*cktails. If you aren't in the mood for alcohol, I can tell you that some cranberry juice and ginger beer (with a sprig of rosemary for garnish!) makes a lovely mocktail.

      They’ve become one of my favorites, too! I can’t get enough of them. I think that these mugs were just some cheapies I got at Target.
