The warm weather has the {PP} thinking it's time for a little get together among family and friends. We always manage to end up back at the lovely home of {LHM}. In honor of my sister and her search for the perfect party beverage I thought I'd share one of {MiMi's} favorites when she has visited {LHM} all the way from Montana. She always seems to bring the sunshine wherever she comes!!!
