One month into summer, and I’m already worried about the days slipping too quickly away. All I want to do is take long evening walks, enjoy drinks on the patio and repose by as many bodies of water as humanly possible.
Here’s a quick look at how I’m making the most of this particular summer. See if you notice a growing trend …
Two-for-a-Dollar-Mangoes
The first time a pal and I decided to try our hand at a mango margarita, we 
spent absolutely ages trying to hack apart rock-hard, unripe mangoes. Let’s just say the results were less than stellar. Years later, an older-but-wiser Miss Mojito will put some perfectly ripe mango to much better use thanks to a stupendous mango sale at my local grocery store. I’m thinking of adapting this recipe from Food & Wine.
Strappy Statement Sandals
Summertime calls for fun and frivolous footwear, and these platform sandals fit the bill. I love the peep-toe slingback styling – it’s super flattering and feminine – and the layer of cork and pop of bright color just scream “summer.”
Frequent Pedicures
During the fall and winter, pedicures feel a bit over-indulgent. I might have a 
slight guilt complex over spending good money to pamper feet that nobody’s going to see. But come summer, polished toes are practically a necessity. I just love a hue that melds orange and coral, like A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find by OPI.

Maybe a blasphemous questions but, do you think frozen mango would work ?
Oh definitely – and the frozen mango would be perfect for frozen margaritas, if that’s your style!
This time of year, I love a good, ripe peach. (Works okay with your theme, right Miss M?) They can get overly ripe quick, and are sometimes overly sweet, but they taste mighty good blended with prosecco (and probably the same with tequila).
