A new place to sell CD's, DVD's and Games. . . they promise to recycle it one way or another: get it a new home or re-purpose the plastic.

Fun on the Web June 28 2012 - Best Vodkas

Summertime always makes me think of fruity cocktails and mixed drinks. What is better than Vodka or Rum with lemonade? But there are times when something more complex is called for. While I learned to make quite a few Martinis when I lived in the Northern Wilderness (where they have no liquor stores) most drinks are better with good liquor. About.com offers a list of the best Vodkas. 

With a truly excellent vodka, well chilled with a dash of lime (but not green with it) is a favorite of mine.

Ask Men also offers a commentary on Premium Vodka here:

Fun on the Web - June 27 2012 - Tootsie Roll

Its been crazy busy this month with an arts and craft show where I took an entire car full of jewelry, extra travel for work, a trip to visit a friend for a weekend, and another trip for 5 days to take care of some things while visiting the couple who live in the northern wilderness where I once spent a winter. (It's so much nicer there in June.)

So it's not that I haven't thought about sharing my fabulous fun finds, just a lack of time to share them. If I make it through this week I will start to breathe again.

Here is the story behind the Tootsie Roll:
