Skinny Shirley Temple Float






Next Sunday, my husband and I will celebrate our first anniversary.  As cliche as it sounds, I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by.  It feels like just yesterday that I was thinking about invitation designs, dress fittings, and seating arrangements.  And yet, I also feel like we've gone through quite a bit of change in a short amount of time.  We've adapted to living with one another.  My husband started a new job.  I acquired a new last name.  And just recently, we inherited/adopted a pet.  

To celebrate our upcoming anniversary, I decided to make a number of desserts related to our wedding and/or honeymoon.  The first is this Skinny Shirley Temple Float.  My husband has fond childhood memories of Shirley Temples.  Apparently, he once drank sixteen (yes, sixteen!) of them at a friend's birthday party.  The man can clearly appreciate a good Shirley Temple, folks.  He likes them so much that, at our wedding reception, we served Shirley Temples as our signature beverage, alongside the alcoholic options.
