Something about the Rockies just makes me smile
.
Our (me and @lindsey.wratten) first time visiting the Rockies was on a spontaneous trip to Banff and Jasper National parks in Canada. We fell head over heels for the glacial lakes and snowy mountaintops Two years later we made it USA’s Rocky Mountain national park and it did NOT disappoint! The snow was deep and fresh in May, the hikes were awe-inspiring, and the mountain air had me grinning (when I wasn’t whining about the cold )

Mountain days with my main gal Three days in Denver was nowhere near enough - we loved the Rockies just as much as when we visited them in Canada, and every meal we ate in Denver & Boulder was incredible

Blue Blazer is a flaming cocktail invented by Jerry Thomas, who decided to entertain one of his clientele. It involves two metal mugs with handles. Warmed with water, high proof whiskey that was lit on fire, then the bartender would pour 3/4 of the flaming liquid from one mug to the other, back and forth and gradually increase the distance of the two mugs. Eventually, add the liquid to a snifter with sugar and add lemon peel. It is a drink meant for cold weather, such as Denver in early April.

I have never had a blue blazer in my life, so I wouldn't pass the opportunity when I saw it on the menu at Union Lodge No 1 @unionlodge1. The modified version pays the homage to Thomas, named "Red, White, and Blue Blazer", with 151 Hamilton Demerara rum, 100 proof Old Grand Dad, Laird Applejack, cinnamon and house bitters blend. .

Also, for the camera nerd, the image was taken in pretty dark space, at 1/30 shutter speed and f1.2. I wasn't quite prepared for the shots but happy with the outcomes.

Happy 78th birthday to @redrocksco!
Believe it or not, I grew up in Colorado and somehow didn’t make it to my first Red Rocks concert until last summer...but better late than never, right?! My friend and I saw @iamhalsey last July, and she was AMAZING! There’s truly no concert experience like Red Rocks. What’s the best concert you’ve seen there?

I was asked recently about my favorite brunch cocktails, I am not a Mimosa or Bloody Mary person, so I couldn't really answer ♀️. But the brunch at The Ramble Hotel by @deathandcompany is fantastic, the brunch cocktail menu is as long as the food menu itself. Here is Corretto that I had, pretty low ABV, got milk and espresso, what more could you ask for a brunch cocktail? Corretto: Nardini Amaro @distilleria.nardini , coconut milk, vanilla, espresso and sea salt. I think you could probably substitute Nardini with Montenegro which was what I thought they used. .whats your favorite brunch cocktail?

I tend to set unrealistic expectations of myself. A common thought that creeps in is that I’m never enough. Never creative, talented, intelligent, beautiful, working, giving, straight up doing, enough. When I don’t work on it, these thoughts can make me extremely anxious. Sometimes the repetition of the simplest mantra can bring a smile back to my face.Here are some of my favorites...
——
1. Don’t take yourself so seriously.
2. Tomorrow is not promised.
3. I love myself without conditions.
4. I’m a good person with a good heart who deserves to be happy & loved.
5. I am calm. I choose joy.
——

Sharing one of my favorite destinations with you all on the blog today- Glenwood Springs!✨
Back in December, I took one of my college best friends to @visitglenwood when she traveled to CO. We had the BEST and most relaxing time at @ironmountainhotsprings! To say this place is amazing would be an understatement. Read all about the experience at the link in my bio!✔️
