Finally the weekend is upon us and truth be told, I've been craving a bloody mary all week. Well, ever since I had one last Sunday. ;) There is something so divine about sipping on that spicy elixir during a long brunch! Better than that, is when you end up at a "make your own" bloody mary bar with a variety of flavored salts, veggies & hot sauces to mix in. Maybe even bacon or buffalo mozzarella?! Thankfully that trend is running rampant here in Boston restaurants, but it's also a fun & interactive element to offer at a bridal shower or birthday brunch!

Happy weekending!
