I had some girls ask for these recipes the other day, so as long as I was typing them out, I figured I would share them. Many of you guys already have both of these, as they are standards of mine. But just in case you don't:My favorite summer drink...
Brandy Slush
1/2 cup sugar
3 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
3 cups water
Dissolve over low heat
Add 6oz can frozen OJ concentrate & 6 oz can of frozen lemonade concentrate (keep the heat on to melt). Stir in 2 cups of Brandy. Freeze over night. Serve 1 scoop (ha! yeah, right) with 7-up or Sprite.
(my grocery store didn't have 6oz cans last time, so I had to adjust the other ingredients proportionally, just as a heads up)

I am going to try the buckle ONE more time. As you probably remember, that is one recipe that has NEVER worked for me. I even secretly thought that you were purposely leaving something out so that mine would never work. That was the devil sitting on my shoulder side of me thinking. So, tomorrow, I will be off to the store for the ingredients. If it doesn't work this time, I will just happily resign myself to enjoying it at your house!
(I know the slush works and I do enjoy that on a hot evening! Preferably, surrounded by family and friends all having fun.)

I, for one, will be looking foward to your mom making the buckle receipt.
Oooooo buckle! Mike was just saying he wanted to make a sweet to eat this week so I will nominate that one!
Hey P, I keep forgetting to ask: what does O.W.L. stand for in your team name? Old wicked ladies, ole whoopee la-ti-da, obiviously wise lassies, what?
VICTORY!!! Dad and I had a delicious blueberry buckle yesterday. It turned out perfectly! Makes me wonder what the other recipe that I wrote down from the telephone was. Oh well.
There is one small piece left over and I'm thinking Dad and I will split it for dessert tonight.
Dad agonized over the Aggie baseball game, even though the final was 14-6. A&M has a regional and so do the Owls. The Aggies don't have a great closer and I think that will hurt them. (Like I know baseball, right?)
Can't wait to see the pictures from the wedding weekend.

xo
Yeah ,Posey, please update! And remind me too what OWL stands for again:)
Hope Rip is doing better and you are able to up date!
