thank you NeCee...i have gotten used to it by now...he's been to iraq for over a year and then he went down to n.o. two days before hurricane katrina hit and stayed down there for a year-he still does missions out there when he is not offshore. Then he is gone half of the month in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico . when we were first married and he would have to go to weekend guard drill OMG you would have thought the world was coming to an end!!! But sometimes I like to have all of this me-time-i don't have to shave or wear make-up and i can run around in my robe with crazy bed-head!!! i watch romantic movies and me and my daughters do girly-stuff till daddy gets home- then they morph into little boys-watching nascar and wrestling and boxing with their daddy and being little hooligans!!!

If you want a variety, I would start off with a nice bottle of champagne and have a toast before dinner. Then with your appetizer or salad have a nice bottle of white wine and with dinner have a nice bottle of red wine and then with desert have a nice after-dinner drink like a White Russian or MudSlide or something. That would be fun!

Man if I drank all those different drinks not only would I be trashed, but I'd have one hell of a hang over.

Okay mixed drinks are my specialty, mine are super strong & taste awesome. My current drink right now is an Absolute Sea Breeze, I also love the Rum Runner

Absolute Sea Breeze
-Fill almost half the glass with Absolute Citron (or another citrus vodka)
-Fill rest of the way with Pinapple
-Splash of Cranberry on top

Not sure how to make a Rum Runner if anyone knows please post the recipe.

-I also make a Killer Fuzzy Navel, Bicardi Lemonade, & Dream Sicle

Sounds like a really special time! I really like strawberry daquiris. I make them homeade all the time. You just buy the mix at walmart or a liquor store, add tequila and ice. Put it in a blender and blend it up! Very good. But watch out because by the time that you get through a couple of drinks, you start adding more of the tequila

If you want to make it a Mexican night, I have a KILLER recipe for Chicken Enchilada Casserole....it's TO DIE FOR! I make it whenever we have people over and I seriously have them come over the next day for lunch to help eat the leftovers. So, let me know and I'll give you the recipe.

I am not big on mixed drinks. I do love Red and White wines and I am a sucker for Michelob Light!

Hubby and I are BIG wine fans. I'm just the opposite of you...I can drink wine all night long, but if I have a mixed drink, I'm out before the count! Oh, and dom perignon, who wouldn't like that stuff?! I would NEVER spend that much money on a bottle of champagne, though. I like the cheaper stuff just as well.

That is what we had at our wedding was D.M. maybe you can gice me the names of some good wines...we live in a dry town-no hard liquor but you can buy beer so i have to drive an hour to get the hard stuff anyway every time i go i buy my mil and fil wine but am clueless as to what to get. she likes merlot and he likes white wine-not sure if it is zinfandel or chardonnay-either will do. thanks
