friday links

Happy Friday! I've got a lot to share with you--let's just jump right in!

Frozen, boozey drinks? Yes please. How about some that don't require a lot of work? Yes please!
Well that's what I found when I came across this fabulous book Poptails by erin nichols, our blogging friend from erincooks.com
Poptails is a one of a kind book that features all the best cocktails in frozen-on-a-stick form. With 60 boozy recipes and 20 full-color photos. These adult treats are perfect for pool parties and barbecues. This is an excellent book for the hostess that wants to stay hip without a ton of work.

Some of the top ones include:
appletini
lemondrop
tequila sunrise
margarita
irish coffee
bellini (my favorite)
red wine sangria

My local airfield place (cape cod airfield) has a couple new planes on their lot.
The red one is available for biplane rides.
I am SO saving up for this one--you have no idea how badly I want to do this! BUCKET LIST bad!
The DC 3 is not available for rides, sadly. Cool right?

And after a greek fest one should always close the night off with ice cream.
