Jul16 Cherry-themed summer gathering 2012

Remember when summer was all days off school and sleeping in? Then we woke up one day as grown-ups. I still kick and scream a little each time I have to go to work in July. There’s so much BBQ to be eaten and so many pools to float in, and you expect me to think about email?

Alas, there’s always the weekend. Summertime is the best excuse to have a fun little gathering at your home. We think a little cherry-themed backyard cocktail party is just what you need. Try this darling Cherry Placecard DIY from Fun.kyti.me for an effortlessly festive table. Then, get the party going with this Bing Cherry Mojito recipe from Martha Stewart. Best part? The recipe is already tailored to serve 12. You should definitely double it.
