Sometimes I Quarantine: with Cinderella

In case you missed it, I grouped the three Classic Princesses–Snow White, Cinderella, & Aurora– into one post that you can find here! I did a super simple Cinderella DisneyBound, scrubbed the kitchen, and celebrated The Magic Factory as a maker of fine Minnie Ears.

Day 15 – Cinderella 2: Dreams Come True

Have you seen Cinderella 2? It’s a collection of 3 short stories told into one movie about the year following the first film. It premiered in 2002, and looks like it could be one of the Barbie movies–same animation style.

Cinderella 2: Dreams Come True Quarantivity – Crochet!

My sweet sweet friend sent me this Disney Princess Crochet Kit from Barnes & Noble, but I’ve seen it at Costco too!

So I’m super excited about this, I’ve wanted one for years (I’ve gifted it to my cousin’s crafty kid even!) Buttt… It’s super hard to even get it started, if you know a good youtube video to show me how to get the first few stitches started, send them my way! 8 days later… this is my progress so far.

Day 17 – Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time

Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time Cocktail

The Glass Slipper

We’ve been making a lot of tiki cocktails during quarantine, and it was super tasty!

GLASS SLIPPER RECIPE

• 60 ml (2 fl oz / 1/4 cup) rhum agricole (sugar cane rum)
• 10 ml (2 tsp) elderflower liquor (e.g. St. Germaine or St. Elder)
• 20 ml (3/4 fl oz / 4 tsp) freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 15 ml (3 tsp) vanilla syrup* (a dash of vanilla extract and 3 tsp 1:1 simple syrup should do the trick if you don’t want to make the syrup below)
• 10 ml (2 tsp) 151 proof rum

Combine the rum auricle, elderflower liquor, lemon juice, & vanilla syrup and shake with ice; serve over ice and float the 151 over the back of a spoon.

VANILLA SYRUP RECIPE

• 1 vanilla bean, split open + seeds scraped (save the pod)
• 440 grams (15.5 oz / 2 cups) sugar
• 500 ml (17 fl oz / 2 cups) water
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Combine vanilla bean seeds + empty pod, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium-high head. Bring to a boil until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, mix in vanilla extract and set aside too cool. Store in a jar in the fridge for up to one month.
