Amaretto Martinis, Mushroom Girls, and a Poem on Lost Things







Hello--
a new bouquet! and more flowers from our yard! also, two "mushroom girl" felties, pattern once again from the Felties book. the 'mushroom girl' is probably my favorite feltie from the book, but due to the beading i'd been putting her off. today was the day!
Here's what i have to look forward to on Wednesday (9 mo anniversary! :) :
Amaretto Martinis! Which, if i am remembering correctly, are--

1 part vanilla vodka,
1 part amaretto liqueur,
maraschino cherry juice (to taste)
maraschino cherry! (garnish)

shake up the liquid components with a little ice so it's not TOO terribly strong.

yummy!!!! hooray for monthly anniversaries :)
and finally, a short little poem:

What's behind the curtain? What's
Beyond the crystal sea?
When all you've loved goes missing,
Both from arms and memory.
But somewhere--in your castle,
Or a dusty, sun-swept land--
What's lost is waiting to be found,
Is holding out its hand.
