The cocktail went down so well, I couldn’t resist taking a few photos – which meant making more cocktails. Oops.
A couple more weeks to go until the kids are back at school and I can try to get back into a routine again with work. It’s going to be pretty strange pretending not to get engrossed in episodes of iCarly and Sam&Cat when I’m supposed to be cooking and writing!
Spiced Kraken rum poured over a glass of lime juice and lemonade, then topped off with a good scoop of lemon sorbet.
Things have been a bit crazy around here recently. I told myself I could still get three posts a week out to my lovely readers over summer, but frankly that idea was completely insane.
Here’s what it looks like before the sorbet bit. I love that layering (unfortunately it does need mixing before you drink it, otherwise you’re just going to be drinking straight rum at the end!).

What can be used to get rid of floaters?
Floaters are tiny specks or dots that appear in your field of vision, and they are usually caused by age-related changes in the vitreous fluid inside the eye. While there is no guaranteed way to get rid of floaters completely, there are a few things that may help reduce their frequency or severity. Avoid eye strain: You can reduce your risk of floaters by taking frequent breaks from activities that require prolonged visual focus, such as working on a computer or reading for long periods. Eye exercises: There are certain eye exercises you can do to help reduce floaters. These include looking up and down, left and right, and in a circular motion, which can help move the vitreous fluid in your eye and potentially reduce the appearance of floaters. Surgery: If floaters are particularly bothersome or interfering with your vision, surgery may be an option. Vitrectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing the vitreous fluid and replacing it with a saline solution. This procedure is usually reserved for severe cases of floaters that significantly affect vision and quality of life. It’s important to note that not all floaters require treatment, and in many cases, they are harmless and do not require medical intervention. If you experience sudden or severe changes in your vision or if you have any concerns about your eye health, it’s important to consult an eye doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
