Drifting with the BB Drifters

The moms are always there for each other.... No I’m not going all sentimental on you (I only do that once a year) and this has nothing to do with holding each other up or being there when you need a friend.  In fact, this is probably the exact opposite of that. Lets say you decide to leave town to get away for a bit. Well then don’t answer the door when Punk comes a knocking, because if your 340 miles from home and Punk is 302 miles that could just mean she is only 38 miles away from you!  Suddenly 38 miles doesn’t seem far enough does it?  Next thing you know Punk is at your door and she expects an adventure because you are a Momadonna after all!
 

Unfortunately for  iCandy, she answered when Punk knocked…

iCandy not only answered that door, but she came up with a great Momadonna Vacation idea! She simply said "Lets dance!" and as you know Momaddonas never say no to dancing! So she found a little family friendly bar in town which was having the band BB Drifters play that night and the girls were off to eat and dance the night away!

Now lets talk about the BB drifters for a moment. It seems they have not been drifting very far as of late, in fact their add said they will only play a gig if its 60 miles or less away from their home base. This is probably because most of the band has passed on, but according to the Internet the 1939 band still has a following and is made up of two members (both of which seem a little too young to have been in the band, or possibly even alive back in 1939). However rest assured the band lived up to their add:

  "We are a band that provide music, singing & LIMITED DANCING."

 Luckily for us Momadonnas are never very limited....

The Moms hung out for the first hour, ate and embarrassed teenage minions the second hour (possibly with our singing at the dinner table), then really went in for the kill dancing away the third! We even had the Minions get in on the act, much to their dismay. All and all we had a very good night and would not hesitate to drive 38 miles (give or take 300) to hang out again!

Happy Mother's Day 2013!!!!

This is us!!! Thank you Momma Kambi!!!

Momadonna science project: The Lemon Basil Martini

It all started when two Momadonnas decided they needed to run away, so they went to a restaurant specifically for a drink (it did have rave reviews). Meet the Lemon Basil Martini!

Now our Martini is not theirs but it is amazing! We started with a little internet research, as most things do, and it ended up an adventure hmmmm also as most things with the Momadonnas tend to do.

Well with a little research under our belt we decided to make our own. We pulled out our beakers, flasks, and measuring cups and went to work. Now the first version was not all it was cracked up to be (which didn't stop us from polishing it off). The second was a bit better but the third Ohhh the third now that was good stuff and the fifth went down smooth. So we decided to share! Here is our recipe and if you don't like it we suggest you keep drinking until you do!! *

6 oz citrus vodka
1 oz lemon juice
1 oz simple sugar (1/2 water 1/2 sugar mix)
A hand full of basil muddled to hell with a little bit of granulated sugar and lil bit o'lemon peel.
Then put it all in a James Bond type mixer add ice -shake not stir.

Then we named out new drink the "Thank you for coming so much." And that's a story for another time!

 
* IT WORKS - honest the more you drink it the better it tastes!
