Apple, ginger and cranberry cocktails, via What Katie Ate

Hi there!

How is it going? I hope excellent :)

I've been neglecting my blog so much lately. I'm sorry if you came and see just the old post. I'm under a load of work, but as soon as I find a peaceful moment I'll come back and show you some photos of what I've been up to, lately :)

For the moment I want to show you a refreshing cocktail recipe I found, I think is perfect for trying out this weekend, dont' you think?

I don't know where you live, but Montreal is so, so HOT right now. Hot id the literal sense of the word. I'm melting away....

I also wanted to tell you I'm going to put my shop on vacations for most part of August :) We are planning on going camping and also to the maritime provinces which I love so much :)

I look forward to take many photos and show them to you :)

The most important thing is that I'll take a little break and be with the family (and let my fingers take a vacation, too, hehehe right now I have blisters for all the hard-awesome-work!), enjoying the summer :)

Have a lovely weekend!

Hottest recipe competition

Here i am again with another recipe  for a competition on Recipelook!

This recipe is called Mangonada and is kind of a dessert, or like a slush. We eat it (or may i say drink it? you can do both) on a hot day because it's very refreshing. Its main ingredients are mangoes and chamoy sauce, which is a sauce made from apricots and chillies and other stuff i don't know. It can be very spicy,depending on how much chilli powder and chamoy you put on it.

This is one of the things i miss from Mexico, to be able to go for a mangonada every time i want. I'm a mangonada junkie and when i was a little girl my mom got mad when she catch me eating one because is not the healthiest thing you can do to your tummy!

Too much citric acid and chilli.

Anyways, i want one like, now.

The competition is called Hottest Recipe and Tom from recipelook says:

'We are expecting hot stuff from you, and that means either literally, involving all sorts of spices, or it could be a dish linked to the hottest moment of your life. The theme is hot, whatever that means to you. In any case, send a little written anecdote along with your drawings, or better yet make the story part of your drawing, and it might help win you some votes.'

There will be a prize too!

How cute :)

I'm sure some friends of mine would be able draw very hot recipes ;)
