Hop, Skip, and Go Naked
A quick, inexpensive, good tasting, inhibitor breaking, outdoor party making drink for adults. Best if made with cheap beer and whiskey. Give your car keys to a responsible sober adult BEFORE drinking.

I had this crostini with mozzarella and tomato in an Italian restaurant close to home. This recipe is my version. Make extra because these little treats disappear rather quickly.

Arugula makes a great pesto. It's beautiful, fragrant, peppery, and bright. I blend it with almonds and garlic for a combo that was just amazing on a grilled steak. Subtle it's not, but that's okay sometimes.
