A celebration, a milestone and a martini

Well, this is my 100th post on my blog! I never thought I would be writing #100 so soon!! When I began my blog Feb 17, 2008 I just thought I'd post once or twice a week! Then I found the food blog challenges and even joined Daring Bakers, made some new friends and I just took off from there! It's been a blast so far and I hope it continues.

And I will be celebrating visitor #10,000 sometime today too. WOW, just think 10,000 people have visited my little blog!!! And to my regular visitors and new alike, thank you for supporting me! I so appreciate your kind comments and thank you so much for taking your time to visit!



To celebrate I made Strawberry Infused Vodka. Boy, it is good! I am a die hard martini drinker, Vodka Martini, up, with a double olive and twist, and usually don't like the pseudo martinis so popular now. But vodka infused with fresh strawberries was very refreshing and quite good too!



Fresh Strawberry Infused Martini
Recipe developed in the kitchen of Big-Black-Dog

Large glass jar or container
Vodka
Fresh strawberries
Course sugar

Clean strawberries and layer them in your container. Pour enough vodka to completely cover the strawberries. Cover and put in the refrigerator for 3 days.

After 3 days strain the vodka. The strawberries are pretty good to eat but do be careful as they will pack a punch!

Carefully dampen rim of martini glass and dip in coarse sugar. Fill glass with vodka and garish with a large strawberry. YUMMY!!!!
