Well, here we are. It’s the last week of April and the last week of this year’s blog challenge. I’ve had fun checking out various posts. It’s also my last week to finish my newest suspense thriller, The White Dahlia. Have you ever wanted something badly but found the thing just out of your reach? That’s how I feel about this book. I’ve had to shelve it so many times to take care of something else, I was afraid I would never get it done.

Ingredients
2 ounces of Tequila (one ounce per glass)
1 cup of ice cubes
1 cup of tomato juice
1/2 teaspoon of sriracha sauce
1/2 cup or orange juice
1/2 cup of grapefruit juice
2 wedges of fresh pink grapefruit
2 wedges of fresh orange
Mix It
Makes two drinks
Add the ice cubes and pour the tequila (one ounce) per glass.
Then add the sriracha sauce to the tomato juice and stir.

Garnish with a wedge of fresh grapefruit and a wedge of sweet orange.
Sip slowly and enjoy.
I’ll have to include this drink in my next Punisher book.
Come back tomorrow to see what the letter W has to offer.
