Adella Crowe was full of woe
Her heart was dark and broody
She never smiled or laughed or sang
In fact she was rather moody
Black is what she always wore
Colors never pleased her
Her pets were rats and bats and snakes
The boys would often tease her
She never cared what others thought
She marched to her own weird drummer
She played in cemeteries and junk yards
And preferred Winter over Summer
Adella Crowe was creepy and bleak
Plus she was very scary
But then again that's no surprise
Since she wouldn't stay buried

To celebrate the rebirth of my blog I thought I would post the recipe for the Atomic Martini (aka The Atomic Cocktail). This isn't my recipe, but one that was made in Las Vegas in the 1950s to "celebrate" the atomic testing that was taking place in the Nevada desert. I got both the recipe and picture from foodviva.com Enjoy! Prep Time: 2 minutes Serves: 1 serving Glassware: Martini glass Ingredients: 1.5 oz. (45 ml) Premium Vodka 1.5 oz. (45 ml) Brandy or Cognac 0.5 oz. (15 ml) Dry Sherry 1.5 oz. (45 ml) Brut Champagne 1 Small Orange Wedge Ice Cubes Directions: 1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a cocktail shaker and add ice cubes. Put the cap on the shaker and shake well for approximately 15 seconds. 2. Remove cap, strain into chilled martini glass and then pour champagne 3. Place the orange wedge on the rim of the glass as garnish and serve. http://cocktails.foodviva.com/champagne-recipes/atomic-cocktail/
