{1} The special drink at Café Bene this month is handmade strawberry milk! It’s called a “strawberry latte,” and as far as we could tell it is just milk and macerated strawberries. The husband and I liked it a lot.
That’s more than I can say for the S’mores Frappuccino, as the whipped cream did not taste like marshmallows.
{2} You can eat Kentucky Derby themed snacks even if you don’t watch the race and still have no idea who won.
This Dark Chocolate Walnut bar was yummy.
And I made Adam and I “Derby Shakes” on Saturday.
Milk chocolate gelato and toasted walnuts blended with skim milk, Jim Beam Maple Bourbon, and ice.
{3} Bareburger’s new menu includes a burger topped with pimento cheese, pickled green tomato, a fried egg.
I guess that technically fit in with our Derby eats too.
{4} The new Avengers’ movie was not bad at all. Even though it was long enough for us to need a refill on our giant soda.
It was very funny; several quips had the whole theatre laughing out loud. I think overall it would have been a lot more Whedon-y if it had been Natasha walking into the house instead in that final farm scene (<– intentionally vague so as not to give any spoilers).
{5} You should totally make my newest recipe at home – Spicy Salmon Roll Casserole.
It came together really quickly and Adam and I both enjoyed it. Served with Bon Appetit’s Thai Celery Salad on the side.
I’m looking forward to leftovers of both dishes.
These all look like amazing hangover cures! Yum yum 😀
Lol, yes, everything in this post kind of could be!
Haha, throwing in a few shots of whisky to make them Irish, and they shall be! 😛
