And they're off!

Mid-April I feel the excitement starting as the 

first weekend in May looms on the horizon.  

Why?  

The Kentucky Derby!

My inner equestrian starts dreaming

of all things Derby...

Simple syrup ~ Mint Juleps

 Tasty treats ~ Southern Style

HATS

Roses

And of course, horses!

My selection strategy includes silk colors,

horse color, name or just a personal connection.

So taking all of that into consideration, 

this year I am going with 

Wildcat Red 

in honor of one son in
Arizona and my red headed son across the pond!

Wild Cat Red

So visit the official web site

and be part of a great American tradition.
