Captain, gin, vodka, oh my!

What would a Nashville Friday be without a Skinny Pirate keeping me company?

After a few rounds on the patio, I moved inside and spread my liquor lovin’ wings to a cucumber gin martini, which turned out to be ultra tasty.

I greeted Saturday am with an adorable picture from my nephew in Iowa. He’s just crazy about this blog.

My gal Coco spotted this clutch at a local Nashville boutique, Fire Finch. A little Alexander McQueenish, a little CBXB – but still $72 and out of my budget.

Ted spent the entire weekend enjoying the spring weather.

So much so, that he tried to break free from his ‘prison’ by busting through the screen.

I slipped on my pot-o-gold shoes and headed to the movies Saturday night.

Of course I did a little bar tending inside the theater…cocktails make movie going so much more fun!

Still thirsty after having to share my movie cocktail, we headed to get a nightcap at the Cheesecake Factory, where I always order the heavenly strawberry martini.

St. Patty’s Day called for dazzling up my Glamingo in traditional Irish threads (and yes, I realize I’m a grown ass woman dressing a flamingo…nothing I can really say to this except that Teddy was thrilled to be relieved of holiday dress up duty this year).

A hike in the park proved no leprechaun sightings.

Parched after my 6 mile jaunt, I quenched my thirst with a green dream.

Ted’s Uncle Elvis came in for a play date – and immediately took over Mr. Bear’s perch in the bathroom.

My mom brought in a pre-birthday gift (PBG) to commence my celebration that I like to drag out the entire month of March.

The cats could have cared less about one another once tissue from my gifts hit the floor.

We took our green party cocktails to the patio, enjoying the last bit of weather and weekend.

After all of the hoopla, Teddy spent the rest of his Sunday like this….

And I did too!
