{Review} Mommy Mixology - A Cocktail for Every Calamity


Surviving motherhood requires a good sense of humor—and strong cocktails. “Mommy Mixology” to the rescue! Featuring more than 60 playful recipes, 20 color photos, and author Janet Frongillo’s personal tales of catastrophe and triumph raising three sons, this book shows that a good attitude and a fully stocked bar can keep any mom smiling through the worst and best of times. For instance…
  • When your toddler digs in his heels and comes back with “NO!” 367 times, shake it off with a refreshing NO!Jito.
  • When your little darling starts to pick up on—and repeat!—every word you say, clean up your language with a Son of a Beach.
  • When your 3-year-old pushes down his Pull-Ups and learns the difference between boys and girls, sit back and laugh with a Penis Colada.
Covering the first five years of motherhood from conception to sending your little one off to kindergarten (and all the hi-jinks in between), "Mommy Mixology" is for every mom hoping and wishing that they are getting it right.

Looking to host a great Moms Night out or add some fun to the next book club night you host? This book will keep your fellow Moms laughing as you celebrate being a Mommy, with a few cocktails that will keep just add to the fun of being together free of the kids for a night! This cocktail book would make a great gift for a new Mom who is wonder how on earth she will manage holding it all together or for the Mom of four who just needs a break! The one thing all Moms understand is that we all need to fin humor in the wonders of our children, and that we need a night out to retain our sanity! "Mommy Mixology," is a great way to celebrate all that you do, day in and day out as a Mom!


*I was not compensated for this review, but sent a copy of the cocktail book for my personal review. All thoughts and opinions are my own, and all topics covered are meant in general humor, and not meant to offend those who do not understand the Mommy humor in this book or the need for a Moms night out.

I was amazed and overwhelmed at the amount of "stuff," one can drag with them to a conference. As I packed my bag for a local two day conference,  I could not help but count the number of gadgets and cords that I would be hauling with me.  It wasn't until lunch time, that I gave any thought to the fact that there weren't any outlets available to charge all of my devices that I used throughout the day to connect to Social Media!

I looked at the wall behind me and there was a line of d
