Gong Show Weekend

My boyfriend and I went camping in Point Roberts, WA (apparently Canada traded the states Point Roberts for Victoria!) on the weekend. Dan, my boyfriend, has a buddy who's parents have a cabin there. We took advantage of the cheap American booze and bought some wine, beer, vodka and tequila (sounds like the start of a fun night, eh?). After dinner we got right to it. Dan's favorite game to play is Kings Cup and our new favorite rule for a card is Jack's Hat.

After the game, we took a wander to the ocean. On the way, we were invited to crash a wedding reception but we politely declined. Shortly after, the party died down and everyone (except Dan and I) went to bed. At this point we thought it was a good idea to bust out the tequila shots!  Let's just say we were up wayyyy to late and slept in our tent until 1pm the next afternoon! 

Obviously, both of us were dying of a hangover. We managed to make our way back home and it took every fibre in my body to be able to make oatmeal for us as an attempt at a hangover cure!

Homemade Coconut Milk


1 C dried, unsweetened coconut
2 C water
1 t vanilla
1 t stevia (Sugar in the Raw - I use the cup for cup stuff)


Soak coconut in water for two hours. Add all ingredient to Vitamix (or blender). You may need to use a wire strainer to strain out the chunks. 


To my oats I added coconut milk (that I had made before going away), dried coconut, raspberries, blueberries and a scoop of Gramma's homemade raspberry jam. Such a delicious combo but I'll be honest, it was NOT a hangover cure! We went to bed at 7pm. 




What's your best hangover cure?
