Step by step

Breanna has been working on steps all day. This afternoon she made it for six steps in a row. There is something surreal about my nine-month-old baby stepping with that funny lurch, heading for my open arms while she chants, “Mama Mama Mama” at me.

Good lord.

I need a mojito.

  1. Richard Walker’s Non-Traditional Mojito (2 drinks)
    3-pkg sweetener (I use Splenda) into blender
    Roll, zest and juice 1 lime into blender
    1 clump of mint leaves into blender
    6 oz rum (hey, I said it was non-traditional)
    Cover and turn blender on low (say “Muddle – Muddle – Muddle”)
    Crack enough ice for 2 drinks (fairly small)
    Strain blender contents between two 8 oz glasses
    Add 1oz (or less) of club soda to glasses
    Add ice to top of glasses
    Enjoy (my favorite mojito)

  2. Erm….propelled by cuteness? I think it helps to have an older sibling that you desperately want to keep up with!
