Suckage and !!!

July 7, 2010

We interrupt this episode of Intentional Happiness for a few moments of Weekly Suckage:

Suckage!~pouring rain+thunder+lightning+hail=no 4th of July fireworks. Also=crying, howling, limb-flailing children.

Suckage!~the first batch of Hoochsicles. I love mojitos, and love caipirinhas, so why wouldn’t I love a mint caipirinha ice pop? Particularly one endorsed by the July 2009 issue of Gourmet magazine? Because it tasted like freaking Pine Sol, that’s why. Assholery! Plus, look at that alarming color…Grass-sicle, anyone? I’m not even going to bother with the recipe, this was so gnarly.

Luckily, there were a few !!! moments in the week, which eased my intense bitterness about my failed Hoochsicles.

!!!~arriving home from the grocery store to discover some impromptu holiday decorating

!!!~Miss D.’s spy operation has expanded into a full-blown Detective Agency, thanks to the awesome spy kit (!!!) given to her by Phoo-d.

!!!~this adorable apron (and yeah it’s wrinkled but it just came out of the box, so gimme a break)

!!!~an afternoon in the sprinklers with Princess Big Eyes

!!!~a tall glass of this on a warm afternoon (excuse the *okay* photo…there was drinking to be done, people!)

Watermelon Margaritas

from Cooking Light

serves 6

2 teaspoons sugar

1 lime wedge

3 1/2 cups cubed seeded watermelon

1/2 cup tequila

2 tablespoons sugar

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon triple sec (I used Cointreau)

Lime wedges or melon balls for garnish

Place 2 teaspoons sugar in a saucer. Rub the rims of 6 glasses with the lime wedge; spin rim of each glass in sugar to coat. Set aside.

Combine watermelon and next 4 ingredients (through triple sec) in a blender, process until smooth.* Fill each prepared glass with 1/2 cup ice. Add 1/2 cup margarita to each glass.** Garnish as desired.

* At this point, I put the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, just to ensure that there weren’t any chunky or stringy bits in my mixture. I don’t like strings in my teeth during cocktail hour.

** If you’re anything like me, you’ll only get 4 drinks out of this recipe. Just sayin’.

~Worry not, readers! I have not given up on Hoochsicles. I’ll be back with a killer recipe…soon!

What made you !!! this week? For more !!! fun, visit Momalom and BadMommyMoments!
