When my grandfather passed away, our extended family of 30+ members descended upon my grandparents' small Venice, FL condo to mourn. Citrus trees of all sorts abound there. One of my fun-loving and funny cousins spent the three days walking around with a fifth of vodka, a stack of solo cups and a knife making made-to-order cocktails with whatever piece of citrus she picked off the ground. Greyhounds made with fresh pink grapefruit were the favorite, and turned the sad event into a real celebration of family and memories.Jessica Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15031897327192877457noreply@blogger.com
