”Diamonds are a girls best friend.” – Marilyn Monroe

Most folks collect trinkets on their travels. I collect rocks. Haven’t found any diamonds yet. 

What I have found are heart-shaped rocks. When you seriously gaze at the ground, you’d be amazed at how many there are!

The largest ones are about 6 inches square, and the smallest one is about 1½ inches square.

Now, here’s a recipe

   that 

       rocks

          for 

             celebrating

                New 

                   Year’s

                       Eve!

Bubbly on the rocks

fresh fruit, such as strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple

ginger ale or champagne

Place a slice of fruit in each cup of an ice cube tray. Fill with water and freeze. Fill flute glasses with the ale or champagne, and pop a fruited cube or two into each glass.

And, a variation that masks the nasty taste of cheap red wine: Instead of water, freeze the fruit in lime or lemonade.

Collecting rocks is awesome. Putting them in a drink? Zany!
