Olive's new pet and skinny mojito

Yesterday Lee (Bailey's long time boyfriend) was surf fishing and caught a little pompano.  It wasn't going to feed us dinner, but Olive seemed to think it was a new pet for her.  She was obsessed.





I also tried to copy Ally Baker's famous mojitos.  I butchered her exact recipe, but used some of her signature ingredients and they were well received.  Really refreshing for our cocktail hour on the porch (and a lot lower in calories than the typical sugary mojoito).


1-2 shots (improvised with Vodka, but usually would use Rum)
Fill glass with ice
Squeeze about 1/3 of a lime into the glass
Chop up mint leaves and put into the glass
Fill class up with 1/2 club soda and 1/2 Diet Sierra Mist
Garnish with wedge of lime and mint sprig

Enjoy!

It's rainy today...but we are enjoying surfing on Pinterest for recipes and reading books on the porch.

XO,
Whit
