Blue Flurry for "Grandma Getting Run Over By A Reindeer"


You all know the song...even though I am officially known as "Nana Suzie", I think this song is fitting given what I recently went through.  Grandma (Nana) actually did get run over by a reindeer...well, it was really more of a T-bone hit!


By now you have all read about my deer saga / incident / terror!  It has been thirty days to the day that Mr. Deer tried to kill me on my way to work.  Last night I picked up my car, all done and back to it's normal state (without the piece of antler stuck in the windshield)...you can still see it in the photo.


I have to give a shout-out to USAA Auto Insurance, Gerber Collision Center and Enterprise Rent-a-Car in Longmont, Colorado!  All three of these companies handled my claim with such professionalism and courtesy.  (Which given my emotional state when the accident happened, was not an easy task).  They all kept their word and stuck to the schedule.  Thank you so much to everyone there who helped me!


Blue Flurry
Compliments of "The Cocktail Project" (not my project, but someone else...although I like the idea!)

1/2 part vodka
1/2 part DeKuyper Blue Curacao Liqueur
3 parts pineapple juice
1/2 part cream of coconut
4 parts ice
light corn syrup
shredded coconut

In a blender, blend ice, pineapple juice, blue curacao, vodka and cream of coconut until desired consistency is reached.  

Rim the glasses;  Pour a thin layer of corn syrup onto a plate and dip the rims into the corn syrup, then dip in coconut flakes.

** Since my daughters stole my blender for their apartment, I had to do all this in our martini shaker and pour the drink over ice.  Not as pretty as it could be, but it did the trick just fine...twice...well, actually three times!

Enjoy responsibly and stay safe out there!
