Village Stuff: Cinnamon Girl @ LFC

Hard Cider on the Patio

"I wanna live with a Cinnamon Girl..."

 I admit it.  I LOVE Left Foot Charley’s Cinnamon Girl Hard Cider.  There is no finer beverage to imbibe after a long day at work (or even a great workout at the gym), than Cinnamon Girl.  Imagine yourself, kicking back on the LFC patio, soaking up the sun, breathing in our fresh, Northern Michigan air, and sipping a cold pint of that sweet, sweet cider.  Liquid gold.  Apples and cinnamon cavorting happily with bubbles and 5.2% alcohol = pure bliss. 

My only concern, is that this delicious cider will eventually run out…probably in mid-June.  So, get yours while it lasts!  In fact, take home a growler or two, and make your neighbors jealous.

"I could be happy the rest of my life, with my Cinnamon Girl."

I do realize that Left Foot Charley will be coming up with another unique and totally yummy cider for me to adopt as my new fave…but for now, I vow to enjoy every last drop of cinnamon goodness.  Ahhhh.

Key Lime Bars

Confection Perfection

Every once in a while I get a sweet craving…for something other than chocolate.  Sometimes I like to have a dessert with a rich, buttery crust.  An ooey, gooey, tart filling is a plus.  Ooh!  Don’t forget a heavy dusting of powdered sugar on top!  “What on Earth could satisfy these 2pm snack desires?” you ask.  The Underground Cheesecake Company’s Key Lime Bars could…and they did :)

Ahhh.  A perfect compliment to coffee, these little babies are about as good as it gets.  I wonder how well they go with Margaritas…
