POMTINIS and Pizza
I really love spending a night in with my hubby! I used to be such a go-out-and-party type of gal, but now, I look forward to relaxing at home in my PJs. My, oh, my, how things have changed!
Our evening at home started with a round of cocktails. For me: a POMTINI; for him: a Miller Lite. Check out the chandelier-effect (a la Kath) in my martini! 
The “bartender” didn’t follow the POMTINI recipe exactly (mostly because we didn’t have all of the ingredients), but I liked his version a whole lot! His substitutions were as follows:
- Citrus-flavored vodka (instead of regular vodka)
- No sour mix or simple syrup
- Addition of soda water

For dinner, I threw together a homemade pizza on a Boboli crust. Toppings included: green pepper, onion, mozzarella, and Bove’s basil marinara (a la Vermont).
I started with two slices of pizza.

But, because those pieces were SO incredibly cheese-alicious…
I went back for a third piece, which I enjoyed with Michael Scott (from The Office).
Afternoon Snacks
Before the gym this afternoon, I snacked on two clementines. (Only 1 of 2 pictured below.)
And, during our afternoon errands, I enjoyed a Black Tea Latte made with soy milk from Starbucks. Mmmmm… it was delish! I’m totally addicted! 
Ok, it’s martini and couch time for me. Enjoy your Saturday night, bloggies!

you are such a superstar with the homemade pizzas! the ‘tini looks good. I got the POM blogger box a few months ago and my husband literally drank all of them before I could snag one for a review! I had to pry the final one from his hands to use part of it in a dinner recipe!

I totally agree with you – on the staying inside. Your pizza looks yummy – and I have been hooked on the Pom teas for sometime now as well

@emily: Haha! When our box arrived, I told Mal to at least save one bottle for me! He LOVES POM, and could easily drink them all in a day or 2!!!

Am I the only blogger in the world that hasn’t received a sample or pom juice?
Ok, I may just have to go and purchase some. Have a fun night in!
