Today, February 22nd, is National Margarita Day. This will make my best girlfriend from college, Colleen, exceptionally happy to hear. I always say it's Cocktail Time, and she always says it's Margarita Time. Margarita's are the number 1 cocktail ordered in America so treat yourself today as every day we are blessed to be here is worthy of a celebratory margarita. By the way, Jose Cuervo has a pre-made margarita in a bottle called a "Golden Margarita--" made with Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila, Grand Marnier, and Cuervo mix. It's wonderful and NO work for you--just pour it over ice and relax.

This Sunday is Oscar Sunday. So tune in and watch to see which of your favorite movies of the year will receive the Golden Honor. This year I was lucky enough to be asked to create the 2 signature cocktails at Elton John's Oscar Party. The first I call a Red Carpet Cosmo, and the second a Golden Truffle. So throw a soiree and enjoy one of the most beloved award shows.

Also this Sunday check out Sandra's Money Saving Meals "State Fair Food" at 12pm/11am Central. I am making festive food at fabulous prices. The carnival classics are all on the menu: Corn Dogs with Sweet Mustard, Garlic Fries, Zesty Grilled Corn on the Cob and Funnel Cakes with Strawberry Sauce. For Cocktail Time...Cherry Cola Floats and a winning Round Two Recipe for Corn Salsa.
Cheers to a happy, and healthy home,
Sandra Lee
