David and Kari

Gabe said he would never forget Brady’s full name, Brady Alexander, because of the drink “Brandy Alexander”.  At the time I had no idea what he was talking about because I thought…. if I haven’t tried this drink, it must not exist.  Wrong! Sorry Brady. I hope you don’t catch too much grief about this growing up.

If anyone would like to try this drink at home, here is the recipe:

1 1/2 oz Brandy

1 oz Dark Crème de Cacao

1 oz Half-and-half or Heavy cream

1/4 tsp grated Nutmeg

My sister gave me some costumes that she saved over the years from when her boys were little. They are adorable! As you can see, Brady didn’t like them as much as we did.
