refreshing beverage


Here's an idea for a refreshing beverage: club soda + maraschino cherry with a bit of its juice (I used blush cherries from Tuesday Morning, which do not contain red dye and feature Oregon cherries) + a wedge of squeezed lime. Aaah. Refreshing, low-calorie summer delight. Try it.

On an unrelated note, I wanted to recommend a couple of shows that QG and I have recently watched. First is Salamander: a Belgian series with twelve episodes. It is available on instant Netflix now. This is an interesting drama featuring many layers of intrigue. It is well written and reminded me a bit of The Killing, one of our faves fo' sure. Second is True Detective, starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. If nothing else, this series (8 episodes) is worth watching just to study the plot and construction. And then there is the acting. Dang amazing. Love this series, despite its creepiness and occasional harsh violence. Live and let live, that's what I say.
