Good Friday Morning!
It is another frosty morning in Muskoka -33 degrees F!!! That’s before the windchill has been factored in which then makes it around -40 something!! School buses were cancelled once already this week due to the extreme cold. Daughter #2 is in the middle of exams and luckily wrote her Science exam yesterday and has today off because… I’m thinking buses may be cancelled again today. (which they were not)
We have had Bentley with us this week, which means not too many blog posts. When Bentley is visiting I need to put the cats food up on the dining room table where I have my laptop, the cats love to torment him from up high which upsets Scampie which in turn upsets Sims which means I don’t get much peace and quiet.
This morning is unusually quiet so I’ve been able to post what I think is a fantastic recipe for a Hot Obama!!
“I created the Hot Obama cocktail at JoeDoe to satisfy the hot toddy drinkers during the wintertime. It’s hot (temperature), tart, and a little sweet, and is the perfect start to a meal at JoeDoe. The dust of cinnamon gives it a little spice. And the name, well, whether Obama is ‘hot’ or ‘not’ to you right now, you’ll still like the drink.”

Ingredients
