I'm going to save your life with Lime Margarita Freezies. Yes. These are just like Mr. Freezies, but with margaritas inside of them. (Yes. Tequila is included.) Margaritas are awesome, but you know what sucks? Making margaritas. I know; it's not rocket surgery. But keeping around the materials, to have ice on hand, to whip out the blender... that's a pain in the arse. And sure, there's these handy little frozen cans of the mix. But if you're going to use one of those, …
Adult-Only Mocha Baileys Fudge Pop Recipe
If you're hot, and if you like fudgsicles or iced caps, then I've got just the thing for you: My adult-only Mocha Baileys Fudge Pop Recipe.

Since we usually …

A Visit to Jackson Triggs Niagara Estate Winery: Not to be Missed!
Tucked away off the highway just a few minutes from the American border is one of the most prestigious parts of wine country in Ontario. Niagara-on-the-Lake is reported to be the birthplace of the modern Ontario wine industry, and it's a relatively young industry compared to that of other renowned wine-producing regions, but its youth hasn't stopped it from quickly picking up international attention. The wineries are packed so densely in the NOTL region that one can hop a rented bike and …
