HAPPY 4th OF JULY!
May we suggest a tasty libation for your weekend enjoyment? Clever Girl's very own Clever Kathy has tested and tested and re-tested this (and many other) beverage recipes. Perhaps this is why blonds have more fun.... The term party-girl suits Kathy quite well--don't let the Donna Reed appearance fool you. She's our party planner extraordinaire, and if she says it's good, it is! Here then is her very own Patriotic Sangria, guaranteed to get the party started, and maybe even set off a few fireworks. A Happy 4th to you all!
