Last Saturday was bridge night. Sandy, Kathie and I carpooled. We met at Sandy's, and Kathie drove. As we headed east, it was raining and we saw a beautiful rainbow. Once we hit the highway, we could see almost the whole thing. It was extraordinary. I didn't have my camera, so I whipped out my trusty Cingular 8535 cellphone and took some shots. It's 2 megapixels, so the resolution isn't as good as with the camera, but I think these turned out pretty well. Kathie was kind enough to turn off the wipers. After the fact, I realized that my phone has a panorama feature, and I probably could have gotten both ends of the rainbow as well as the middle. Still and all, good luck to you.
At bridge, Dan and Karen were mixing up Cosmopolitan as the featured drink. I usually don't like sweet drinks, but these were great. Dan said he had tweaked the recipe a bit. Here's his version:
1/4 ounce lime juice
1/3 ounce Cointreau or Grand Marnier
1/2 ounce vodka
2/3 ounce cranberry juice
Shake with ice, strain.
In this case, they were making them a couple of cups at a time. So if you're entertaining, substitute "cup" for "ounce" and instead of making a single drink, you'll make eight at a time.
We still managed to play pretty good cards.
Enjoy!
It never fails to amaze me how good a cellphone camera photo turns out. This from someone who does not own a cell phone as I have not found I need one YET, I am sure the day will come when I won't be able to live without one *smile*

That recipe seems like a secret weapon in the bridge wars!

Never had the opportunity to take a picture of a rainbow. Well done.
