We had them down in Key West, and a friend of my mom that runs a bar made some one night, and they were both similar. Fresh is best, I can tell you that, don't use Roses crap (sorry Kaci). use a simple syrup made with sugar & water good rum fresh lime juice fresh mottled mint (a good amount of it) I've watched the girls at TerraFin make them, and they use fresh lime & mint and they smell really really good!
And a little club soda... I was a bartender for several years. If anyone likes the taste of chocolate covered cherries I have a great recipe for a chocolate covered cherry shooter! Yum! LOL Same thing with kani kaze - fresh lime and then the other lime too.
Looking for one of those folding full size hide-a-beds. Not a sofa sleeper, but the ones that can be "folded" in half and rolled into a closet. Also looking for one the big play yards (play pens), like the pack and plays only bigger. And lastly, anyone that has any baby clothes (boys 24 mos & up) ~ (girls newborn & up) that they would live to get rid of. I have been checking classifieds & craigslist, and have gotten a few items. Kyle & Jess don't have a lot of $$$ (nor do I), but am trying to help them with what I can.
Oh and I have a girls (adult) bike if someone wants it. Meg doesn't ride it. May need some tubes for the tires....It is blue
I need a strand of regular size clear christmas lights. I can use a strand with anywhere from 35 to 75 lights and I would prefer them to have a white cord. I wish I had thought about this before the Christmas stuff was gone from the stores. I'm making one of those glass block lights.
I don't remember seeing them this year. My strand in my glass block went out and I couldn't find them the few times I remembered to look. Edited to add, Amazon has them, but they are a little pricey: http://www.amazon.com/White-Christm...V9IA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294527642&sr=8-1
I did a glass block for a friend and I ended up buying a set of icicle lights at Family Dollar and using those. Nobody will know the difference cause all of the lights are bunched up anyway. That was before Christmas. Now that I want to do the other block for me, I can't find any lights.
I was in Target on Wednesday and they still had a few Christmas lights left and everything was like 75% off, I think. The Timber Dr. store had a lot more stuff left than White Oak.
Lift up recliner Saw this and thought of you...not sure if you are still looking. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/fuo/2161166814.html
I was at the Big Lots in Garner yesterday and they still have Christmas stuff left. Not sure it they have the lights or not. They have some stuff near the front of the store, but there's more in the back too.
Anyone know where i can find large house flags for a good price. The lowest i have found is on eBay, but they are still $20 a piece. Anyone know of a place that sells them cheaper than that?
If you are talking about decorative/seasonal flags, usually JR's in Selma carries a good selection. Not sure of the price, but I normally get the smaller garden flags for $5.00 there.
