New Year’s Eve is just a few days away so I thought I’d make a cocktail. Since I wanted to share in a celebratory drink, it’s actually a Sparkling Honey and Lemon Cider mocktail.
This year has been an exciting one for me as I’ve gotten engaged, married and pregnant. I feel so lucky for all the good things that have happened. It’s kinda surreal to see all your dreams come true. I can’t wait for 2016 and look forward to meeting our little boy. I hope that you have good luck and good fortune in the New Year! Cheers!
