The Bottle Cap Slushy

I'm rather amazed that my first drink recipe isn't a Caesar. I can make a mean Caesar. I guess you'll all just have to wait for that one.

Right now I present one of my best creations yet....

The Bottle Cap Slushy.

Most of you will remember when bars used to have $1 shots. They were generally an "Electric Popsicle" or a "Bottle Cap". I loved the Bottle Caps! After learning how to make them, I stumbled across the required ingredients to make this amazing concoction!!

Ingredients:

1/2 can of frozen limeade

2 ounces of Pinnacle Root Beer Vodka

2 ounces of water

approx. 2 cups of crushed ice

Blend.

If you added too much ice, add another 1/2 to full ounce of the vodka.

Enjoy!!

And last, but not least, the conversation that occurred during tonight's slushy drink:

Me:

My children are driving me crazy.

LWW:

Kids don't drive mom's crazy.......kids drive SOBER mom's crazy!! Have a drink!

Me:

Oh, I did.

A slushy one at that.

I couldn't decided what to drink; it was between a beer and a slushy drink.

Then I realized it was storming.

Storms mean lightning which mean power outages.

I went for the slushy drink just in case it was the last one I could ever make if this was the storm to end power forever.

It wasn't though.

The power never did go out...

enough IS enough.

I can think of many 'e' words that are relevant to my commit to be fit theme for this A-Z Challenge: energy, exertion, educate, excel...the list could go on and on. I finally settled on the word 'enough'. Christmas of 2010 I was at the lowest weight I had ever been. I remember being very happy and very, very hungry. I was over-exercising and under-eating. The weight didn't stay off because it wasn't a lifestyle that I could keep up with. By summer 2011, the weight was back on. In my commitment to be fit and my quest to lose the last 10 pounds, I will be doing enough. I will exercise enough and I will eat enough. I will change my body and change my life in a healthy, and maintainable way. When I run, I will run fast enough. When I lift, I will lift heavy enough. When I stretch, I will stretch far enough. I will, simply, do enough.

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more. Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by. I've decided to go with " burn " because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run. DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing. My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program. It's time to feel the burn ! Can you feel it?

Kick Ass.

Day 11, Letter K, and almost 5 pounds gone! I'm kicking ass at my A-Z Commit to be Fit Challenge!! I'm quite certain that the next 5 pounds are going to be quite a bit tougher than the first 5, but I'm willing to do the work.
