Summer Dreaming: Strawberry Daiquiri

Over the weekend, it was a toasty 45 degrees... of course that quickly changed to below freezing and we ended up with a few inches of snow last night (Booo!). Hmmm... let's hope it's the onion snow. But, as I walked into work Saturday afternoon there was a slight breeze and it smelled of spring. *sigh*

So, here's to spring and summer thoughts, and fresh fruit wishes....
