Lake Life State of Mind

Create a life anchored in family & fun

Drinks

Here you will find drinks of all kinds to choose from. Although I do have some non-alcoholic drink options here, my specialty is truly sharing adult cocktails. I add a new cocktail to the blog every Thursday for my weekly Thirsty Thursdays. In addition to sharing all my drinks, you'll find YouTube videos of myself showing you how to make them all. Drinks and lake life go hand in hand in my opinion. Don't you think?

Happy Official First Day of Fall!!🍁🍂🍁🍂
.
Today I’m sharing how to make this easy DIY Topsy Turvy Planter on the blog. For someone who has ZERO gardening skills, it was super easy to put together with the help of Patrick. The hard part will be keeping the mums alive throughout the season. #plantkiller😳
.
How are your gardening skills? Hopefully better than mine!🤣

Finishing off sharing my indoor fall decor with this pretty photo from our upstairs catwalk. This view seems to be a popular one every time I share it here. The two story windows really give the house a bright and airy feeling. Not to mention the ultimate lake view!💙
.
Tomorrow I’ll begin moving outside and sharing my front door decorations. I can’t wait to show you what I did! Happy Sunday everyone. And Go Dolphins!🏈🐬

Happy Saturday and officially Happy New Year to my Jewish family, friends and online community!🤩💗
.
Monday I’ll be sharing my outdoor fall decor (I’m finishing it up this weekend finally!), but in the meantime here’s a full view of my fireplace area. This space gets so much natural light that I can never get a photo without getting my reflection in the tile...can you see me?!??😂🤣
.
What’s happening in your neck of the woods today?! Football? 🏈 Relaxing? 😎 Cleaning?🧹

It’s #thirstythursday and today I have an awesome CINNAMON ROLL COCKTAIL to share with you. Using Fireball Whiskey and Cream Soda, you can actually recreate the flavors of a cinnamon roll in liquid form...who knew!🧡🧡🧡
.
Cinnamon Roll Cocktail
*3/4 cup of cream soda
*1/4 cup of Fireball Whiskey
*whipped cream and cinnamon (optional for garnish but highly recommended!)
Add ice to a glass and pour in your cream soda and Fireball. Give it a stir. Drink as is or add whipped cream and cinnamon for garnish!🤤
.
*Note!!! If you’re afraid of the Fireball whiskey, start with a splash and taste it. Add more if desired. You can always add more but you can’t take it out so be careful.👍🏼
.
Cheers to #thirstythursday!!!🧡🤍🍁

If you watched my Instagram stories yesterday, I might have mentioned in an overly caffeinated way how excited I was to share with you a recipe I created for the blog!! That’s because I had already consumed three of these COPYCAT STARBUCKS PUMPKIN CREAM COLD BREW coffees and I was wired for sound. I had never tried one until recently and then found myself going to Starbucks three times in a week for one. Instant obsession!😆😆😆
.
Seriously though, this homemade version I created is beyond easy to create and tastes like pumpkin pie spice heaven!! You must give it a try. Full blog post with tons of tips (link in bio) and a quick tutorial video in stories.🧡🤍🧡🤍🧡
.
Who else is OBSESSED with this coffee house concoction?! Leave this emoji 🙋🏽‍♀️ in the comments if you are.🧡

Walmart for the win! I ran into Walmart the other day looking for something for a project Patrick and I were working on. I didn’t find what I needed (bummer!), but I did find this adorable THANKFUL sign and wooden mint pumpkin. Another lucky find, like yesterday’s garland I shared, when I least expected it!🤍🤍
.
Do you normally shop at Walmart for holiday decor? Their selection was pretty awesome! I’m thinking I need to hit it up more often.😉
