Love Potion No. 9

I know that Valentine's Day has passed us by and as a single person, I will freely admit that I couldn't be more happier!

Fortunately, I work with mostly men, so I didn't have to be tortured by office deliveries of gorgeous bouquets and chocolates from husbands, boyfriends, and lovers, to make me green with envy at some chick in the next cubicle. (We also fortunately have no cubicles!)

In a non-related story, last night I felt like a mad professor because I discovered a love elixir! It will be foisted upon my next victim, er, I mean, boyfriend.

I had a bottle of Shiraz sitting in the kitchen, beckoning me to hurry up and open it.

While I am not a big red wine fan, I do like syrah/shiraz and cab franc. I usually avoid drinking reds because it usually ends up with me dancing on tables. To take the edge off the alcoholic effects of red wine, I improvised and threw in some Apricot juice from a can of Kerns.

 += YUM!!

It was love at first sip! Voila! A new love potion was born! I felt like running up to the next man I saw and, as one of my guy friends says, "making it do what it do!"

Making this recipe will make you feel like you just clicked on the "Easy" button, and it's fairly inexpensive, as well. It kind of tastes like Sangria. I do believe my love potion creation will be very effective in your future seduction repetoire.

1/2 glass full of Shiraz (or Syrah)
1/2 glass full of Apricot Juice (you can also try their Peach juice)

Swirled, not stirred.

Eat. Pray. Sip. Seduce.

You'll thank me later!
