Today's drink is a quaran-toddy. This is a perfect drink to warm up on a cold day (and alcohol kills coronavirus 😉). And since we're all stuck at home, for who knows how long, day drinking is perfectly acceptable. </div>

The cold weather we're having in Dallas is giving me cabin fever - seriously, I need it to warm up. So since I'm feeling restless, I thought I'd share this cocktail recipe today - the Restless Native. This cocktail recipe is from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Beach-Bum-Berry-Remixed-Jeff/dp/1593621396">Beach Bum Berry Remixed</a>. It's definitely sour enough to have that tropical zing, but the combination of the cream de cacao and coconut rum also makes it a good dessert drink (without being too sweet). </div>

This year, my mom and I made lemon sugar cookies for Christmas. These are good any time of year, but if you add some red and green food coloring, they are especially festive. This is my Nana's recipe, with some modifications by my mom.</div>

Ingredients:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>1 cup butter</li>
<li>2 cups sugar </li>
<li>3 1/2 cups flour (3 3/4 if you are using food coloring)</li>
<li>1 tsp. salt</li>
<li>2 eggs</li>
<li>2 egg yolks</li>
<li>2 tsp. baking powder</li>
<li>1/2 cup lemon juice</li>
<li>grated rind of 2-3 lemons (2 if they're large lemons, 3 if they're smaller)</li>
<li>optional: food coloring (if you use food coloring, be sure to use the paste (or gel) kind - the liquid can mess up the recipe. We use Wilton's, and it works well.)</li>

I basically used the recipe for whole wheat peanut butter blossoms from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Better-Gardens-Cookies-Any-Day-Christmastime/dp/0696000547">Better Homes and Gardens Cookies Cookies Cookies</a> - except I didn't use any whole wheat flour or chopped peanuts (I used crunchy peanut butter, not smooth).</div>

Happy Thanksgiving Eve! I've got <a href="https://thekimdelacreme.blogspot.com/search/label/thanksgiving">Thanksgiving recipes for you</a>, but if you need a break from all the cooking (or dealing with your relatives), I also have a fun Thanksgiving-themed cocktail I made up last year - the Tipsy Turkey (and no, it's not your father/mother-in-law/grandpa . . . )</div>

Today I'm sharing another cocktail recipe - the Passionfruit Cocktail. This drink is easy to make and very tasty. I used the recipe from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Trader-Vics-Tiki-Party-Cocktails/dp/1580085563/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1496595755&sr=1-1&keywords=trader+vic%27s">Trader Vic's Tiki Party!</a> to make this one. </div>

A couple weeks ago, my sister turned 29. She wanted a chocolate birthday cake with a sea turtle frosted on it, so that's what we made her. I can't take credit for the turtle (my mom did most of the decorating), but I did help make the cake and today I'm sharing the recipe. It was so good! </div>

A couple of weeks ago, it was my dad's birthday. His favorite cake is a German's Sweet Chocolate cake, so my mom and I made him one. This recipe is not German - German's Sweet Chocolate is the kind of chocolate you use. And the cake was actually invented in Dallas - where we live! If you love coconut, chocolate, and pecans, this cake is definitely for you!<br />

Immediately split biscuit and place a pat of butter inside. You can serve them with jelly, honey, or by themselves. Enjoy!</div>

Today I'm sharing the recipe for a Lemon Drop martini - I really love these! I make mine very sour with just a little bit of simple syrup - they are great paired with seafood or grilled chicken or for enjoying by themselves.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Ingredients:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>2 oz lemon vodka</li>
<li>2 oz lemon juice</li>
<li>1/4 oz simple syrup</li>
<li>Rimming sugar (you can use regular sugar to rim the glass, but a rimming sugar designed to be used for cocktails works best)</li>
<li>1 cup crushed ice</li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rim the edges of a martini glass with the sugar. To rim the glass, rub a lime or lemon on the edge of the glass. Spread the rimming sugar out on wax paper and then rub the edges of the glass with the sugar. </div>

Next, combine the vodka lemon juice, simple syrup, and ice in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. Strain the drink into the rimmed martini glass. You can put in a few pieces of the ice if you want the drink to stay colder longer.<br />

Today I'm sharing the Trader Vic's recipe for a Suffering Bastard. This drink tastes more like a Mai Tai instead of the ginger beer Suffering Bastard served in some bars. I modified the recipe from the one included in <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Trader-Vics-Tiki-Party-Cocktails/dp/1580085563/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1496595755&sr=1-1&keywords=trader+vic%27s">Trader Vic's Tiki Party!</a> since that recipe uses a pre-made Mai Tai mix and I use the individual ingredients. </div>
