Strawberry-Basil Smash

I've never been a big drinker, and right now I can't even drink... but for some reason all I want is to sit outside at a cafe and sip a fruity and bubbly cocktail!

Maybe it's the thought of knowing I can't have something, and it makes me want it even more. I don't know. But what I do know is that mocktails are just as amazing, if not better than alcoholic cocktails. So I've been having my fair share of them lately! 

Strawberry and basil are one of my favorite combinations, so a sparkling drink muddled with both sounded just about right.

Well, as much as we can't believe it, Thanksgiving is just a few days away! 

I feel as if I'm not ready. I haven't had enough pumpkin things or crunched on enough leaves. So I'll be trying to do that as much as possible from now until Thursday...

Today is a Thanksgiving inspired post. But also one that you can make well into December. 

I made these pumpkin bars last weekend for a dinner party. Which was more of a mingle-while-grabbing-food-off-our-large-table type party, so small bites made it easy for guests to pop in their mouth, no fork necessary. And these bites were a hit!
