Ruthie's Jug

I love this jug - Ruthie's Jug!

One night the ya-ya's came over and Ruthie had this jug, full of cranberry vodka that she had made. I was inspired by both the contents AND the container. What made this jug even more desirable... it was only $2.38 at Wal-Mart! I had to have this jug!

Well, searching did me no good. Couldn't find it. They never had it.

Bummer...

Ding-dong!! This morning, ya-ya Norma shows up bearing Ruthie's Jug! Jumps for joy and gratitude filled my heart!! She had found what I could not! I immediately filled it with Ruthie's concoction of cranberry vodka (I had been 'brewing' my own in a mason jar)! Actually, the vodka is a bit strong... it's the beautiful jewel color that so attracts me.... and the wonderful, happy memories that it brings!

...a bit of a side note.....

I was straining my concoction through a filter over a bowl and wouldn't you know... my cat, Gambit, was caught having a shot if it! M turned around in the kitchen and sitting by the bowl was Gambit, with a tell-tale drop of red on his chin.... good lordy... that's ALL I need!
