Baking and cooking my way through the cold Alaska winters keeps me from getting cabin fever. With the help of my husband and our three dogs, we manage to maintain our sanity through adventures in our kitchen and our hometown, Fairbanks.

Citrus Cranberry Fizz
Ahhh, Friday. I love Friday. Not because I don't love going to work during the week, I do, but because I get drink of the week, I sleep in a little on Saturday, I can look forward to coffee tomorrow morning, and I know I can have some time to read through some of my cooking magazines ( I have 5 I haven't looked at yet).
It has been a crazy week with the MIL. My sister in law came up from Anchorage for the weekend so we are officially "off duty" for the weekend. I am going to a CABI party at my friend's house (it is a home clothing party, beautiful clothes, excellent quality, and one of the few options for work clothes in Fairbanks). We have hockey on Saturday, and dinner out at a new restaurant opening in Fairbanks. That, along with all the housework I didn't get done during the week, will make the weekend fly by.
But, I am stopping for a few moments to have a break and a drink. I found a new way to get my "bubble" fix. Sparkling cranberry juice. I love it! Add a splash of lime, some citrus vodka and some pomegranate seeds and you have an awesome drink of the week...I think I'll have two. Cheers!
