Tips for Surviving a Hurricane

I am a survivor.  I have survived Hurricane Alex, Hurricane William, Hurricane Samantha and Hurricane Alaina for the last 6 years. 

Now that we have Hurricane Irene coming...it's a perfect time to plan your Hurricane Survival party. Why suffer alone, right? I normally like to surround myself with other people...either so that they bring their mini hurricanes to entertain my hurricanes, or so that they can just sit and empathize with each other at how crazy the life of a stay at home mom is... 

Make sure to invite your guests to bring sleeping bags, and some hurricane essentials since most likely, the stores are empty of them all now anyway.   I checked my liquor store yesterday and was lucky to get all the essentials.

The two most important things for surviving Hurricane Irene, as a parent, are the following.

1. Chill a martini glass...plastic ones are fine. 

 Here is the recipe for The IRENE...Bring it!!

2 oz. Pinnacle Whipped Flavored Vodka
1 oz. energy drink
1 oz. cranberry juice

Mix over ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with an orange twist.

2. Chill your Hurricane glasses to keep the festivities flowing...

Whatever you do this weekend...be safe, eat, drink and be a meticulous momma!
